EAST SUSSEX NATIONAL HOTEL 01825 880 088 | www.eastsussexnational.co.uk Nestled amongst 1,100 acres of beautiful East Sussex Countryside, this venue’s location enables you to enjoy spectacular views across the South Downs, ideal for those all-important photographs. Whether you’re planning an intimate occasion or a large event, there’s a space to suit you at East Sussex National and the suites are finished in modern décor acting as a blank canvas for your chosen palette or theme – you can put your own stamp on the place. If al fresco “I dos” are what you dream of, The Birdcage is set on the south lawns in the Pavilion Gardens offering a gorgeous backdrop. It can accommodate six people within the structure, but has space for many more looking on outside it. Alternatively, inside you can choose between the Pavilion Restaurant, Clubhouse Ballroom and Lynx Suites for guest lists of 150, 160 and 240 respectively. You can host your celebrations in the Lynx Roundall for 120 guests, the National Suite for a whopping 330 guests or in the Lynx Suites surrounded by anywhere between 20 to 125 loved ones. Maximum capacity for the venue is actually an astounding 750 for a wedding breakfast and reception, so plenty of space to invite everyone you’ve ever met should you wish! The menu will be created by the excellent team of chefs who craft tantalising dishes using seasonal, locally-sourced ingredients, which has earned them two AA rosettes. To help with your plans and preparations, East Sussex National Hotel offers a carefully designed selection of wedding packages, which include all the traditional elements for your celebration. Created to suit a wide range of budgets the team can tailor them to meet your requirements.
