Christie & Co, a specialist property adviser, has been appointed to market the Brambletye Hotel in East Sussex, UK.

Located in the village of Forest Row, the property is around three miles south of East Grinstead and 30 miles north of Eastbourne.

The hotel features a public bar and restaurant, on-site car parking, and a terrace that caters to outside drinking and dining experiences.

A key selling point for the Brambletye Hotel is its proximity to the Ashdown Forest, known for inspiring A A Milne's classic book Winnie-the-Pooh.

The hotel's heritage includes hosting Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who found inspiration for 'The Adventure of Black Peter' within its walls.

The proximity to attractions such as Heaver Castle and Weir Wood Reservoir further contributes to the hotel's appeal for visitors seeking diverse experiences.

Christie & Co’s Hotel South team director Simon Jackaman is responsible for marketing the property, which is a short drive from Gatwick Airport.

Jackaman said: “The Brambletye Hotel offers a unique opportunity with genuine potential to develop a food and bar operation within this beautiful part of East Sussex, with London only 35 miles away.

“This is a high-density area with genuine scope to further enhance all trading opportunities and would suit an independent owner or multiple site operator looking to upscale their room offering.

“The village has a resident population of around 5,000 with surrounding villages, countryside and some of the prettiest villages in the area drawing trade from a wide catchment area.”

In April 2024, Christie & Co, on behalf of Coast & Country Hotels, facilitated the sale of the Royal Hotel Whitby in North Yorkshire and The Majestic Hotel in Eastbourne.
