"A lovely hotel, clean rooms, helpful staff, indoor heated pool excellent. Our only disappointment was the evening meals at the restaurant, I couldn’t eat some of mine, my partner’s meal was below expectations. I’d have scored this hotel 5 out of 5 if food had been better."

However they sorted it all out on the spot and upgraded our room and gave us drink vouchers and we even got a partial refund. Excellent service considering the confusion, staff were so friendly and helpful sorting it all out for us"

Dale Hill Hotel & Golf Club

Dale Hill Hotel & Golf Club

10/10 Excellent
"Highly recommended, especially if you're using it as a central base to explore the High Weald hiking trails and local National Trust properties. The bedrooms are really a story of two parts here. The old wing feels quite dated with older, functional furniture, lacks air conditioning, and tends to get quite hot. The new wing is the exact opposite, much more modern and nicely cooled. Both areas are kept spotless! Just a heads-up if you need a firm bed: the mattresses are extremely soft and tend to dip in the middle. Breakfast covers all the standard items and is perfectly fine, but the highlight is the setting. The views from both the dining room and the bar terrace overlooking the golf course are beautiful, serene, and calming. We also had lunch and dinner at the restaurant. the menu is versatile, well-presented, and really tasty. The staff deserve a special mention, polite, warm, and genuinely doing their best to accommodate requests . The swimming pool is on the smaller side, but it also overlooks the golf course, stays clean, and was never crowded during our stay."
