Location is by a traffic island so room was not quiet but earplugs were thoughtfully provided. The traffic noise did not disturb me but did my partner. Comfy bed - lovely bathroom. Ambience of pub good. Breakfast good. Would stay again.

I loved this area, and the bus can get you to the town and there's plenty to eat and explore in town BUT to get to the beautiful ashdown forest or forests/farms around, I would recommend having a car.

We booked for our anniversary and it was exactly as we had hoped. A little bit of luxury, solitude, and relaxation. The food was excellent (although a little slow in the restaurant). The room was very comfortable and spacious. The grounds are delightful for a walk (we did 4km, but there are shorter walks). The staff were all friendly and helpful and the relaxing back massage was amazing! We made a good decision to eat in the Brasserie on the second night as it was more relaxed.

Forest Row has some lovely independent boutique shops, restaurants and there are other lovely places to visit nearby too. Ashdown Forest has many walks and a visit to Pooh Corner and Pooh Bridge is a must ... or it always is for us!

Property is situated along the road but was still quiet.
Property is situated along the road but was still quiet. Beds are soft & comfortable. The owner was also very hospitable. It is actually a property with so much potential. Unfortunately, the owner doesn't have staff to help him provide full service such as keeping the bar & kitchen going. Hence, it is basically a place to sleep. Not a problem though since there are café's just outside of the hotel.
Disliked · Sad that it cannot provide full service due to lack of staff. I can imagine how wonderful it would have been.

The Forest Row has a lot of rooms, mine was clean and well presented, the staff was very helpful, plenty of parking.
I was part of a large motorcycle group touring the area, so being a large group can be difficult, but all was accommodated for without hesitation.

I loved the tradition and the character of the hotel.
I loved the tradition and the character of the hotel. It was full of history and the location in the forest looked beautiful, although we just stayed the one night and then travelled to near by family in Haywards Heath !! However, the hotel is in need of urgent upgrade of curtains , carpets etc. The hotel looks very tired.
I loved my stay at The Swan at Forest Row! On arrival I was greeted by Richard who is just lovely; warm, down to earth but also professional. My room was cosy and clean and decorated in a style I like too. The location is fab and was just a short walk from the venue I was attending. My veggie breakfast was included in the price, was delicious and set me up until supper time!! Really excellent value for money. I will certainly be back!
Loved the grounds and the hotel . The staff were very accommodating and professional particularly at dinner and the lady in the reception for the spa and golf was excellent. We also loved the lunch in the brasserie , the chef was excellent and superb quality goats cheese so recommend that. We also really enjoyed the driving range . Overall a beautiful bit of countryside in driving distance from london for a weekend getaway.
The room was nice. One could say a spruce up would be good but on the whole it was good Food served in the restaurant was very good. Full English breakfast was excellent. Very good choice for those wanting continental breakfast.
The hotel was traditional Old English full of character with a modern twist where needed. Great position on the A22 and good sized car park.
The staff at Brambletye Hotel were very friendly and helpful, the room was quiet and the bed comfortable. In the lovely decorated room there was a little fridge and a fan to make the air feel cooler during the hot days. The hotel is in a central location with a great Pizzeria / Café just across the road. I had everything I needed, thank you !
A great stay at The Swan in Forest Row. Such a lovely area to explore - locally for the shops, as well as the beautiful countryside and Pooh Corner etc :)
A nice pub / restaurant. We only had a drink in the evening here and breakfast in the morning, but the breakfast was great, so I'm sure the food in the evenings is too.
Accessibility was a major setback, getting to work and town was quite a Herculean task as the bus from the high street was often delayed or never showed up. And the taxis, cab or uber and bolt were not available at forest row, So these made quick moving around really dificult and logistics quite expensive.
Nothing. The hotel closed the Bar at 8pm no evening meal or breakfast,the pub opposite was closed and the Swan closed there resturaunt at 6pm,only option was chinnesse or Indian,only good thing about forest row was tescos petrol a 172 a ltr
Very nice small cosy hotel ! Very clean , good size rooms ! Good location too , restaurants and bar around ! Very cosy English style restaurant with friendly staff and good food , cold beer and nice staff ! Highly recommend
I really enjoyed the coziness is the hotel. I feel the whole building has a lot of history and has seen a lot over it's many years of service. The staff was lovely and the food served at the restaurant was delicious!
Friendly reception, clean room. For £57, it was excellent value. Yes, they don't like to switch the lights on (I had to use my torch to navigate to the stairs), but it was a nice, quiet and well situated hotel.
The hotel is in a good relaxing sleep area , with good access to shops. Hotel is well equipped with everything you need to have a good stay and adjoining bar is great. Staff are very friendly and welcoming.
Fantastic location for Ashdown Forest and Sussex coastal areas, towns of Lewes, East Grinstead and Haywards Heath in easy reach. Many miles of good walking on your doorstep AND you can visit Pooh Bridge !
Hotel and services available is 5 star level. Recently renovated rooms, excellent spa and gym alongside the hotel grounds to walk around. Some great staff including Elaine who worked in the lounge area
Nice location, no problems parking nearby for free. Village was accessible on foot and shops open late, with several pubs. Ashdown Forest and the High Weald are nearby for walking and relaxing.
GREAT HISTORICAL HOTEL IN A CHARMING TOWN. KIND HELPFUL & HOSPITABLE STAFF. WE APPRECIATED THE TRADITIONAL LAYOUT WITH THE TWO QUEEN BEDS AND ENJOYED THE TOWN.
Hotel was situated close to an event we were attending so saved a night journey home and we could use next day to visit a much loved tourist attraction
