A famous historic inn, ideally located for the
South Downs National Park

This famous 13th century inn was once a renowned meeting place for smugglers. Oak beams and open fires offer mellow reminders of the past and create an intimate atmosphere in the bar. The Star at Alfriston has 37 en-suite bedrooms, some in the original 14th century part of the hotel and others in the modern wing.

The Star is set in the heart of the South Downs, where
there are many fine walks, with the South Downs Way passing right by the door of the hotel. Pets are welcome at a charge of £5.00 per pet, per night.

The Star welcomes pets treating their owners to a short break and a chance to experience the newly-designated South Downs National Park. The hotel offers details on a number of local walks, from a leisurely stroll to a full-on hike.
Pets receive a welcoming pet package, including blanket, towel, water bowl, treat with a welcome note and "Dog in the Room" sign. Pets are welcomed in all public areas of the hotel except the restaurant, where guide dogs only are allowed.

Springwells Hotel lies in the picturesque and unspoilt market town of Steyning, nestling in the heart of the
South Downs and providing an excellent centre from which to explore West Sussex. Once a Georgian
merchant's house, Springwells has been sympathetically converted into a charming 11-bedroom hotel,
offering the personal attention and comfort associated with a small, privately owned establishment.
All the guest rooms have been furnished with comfort in mind and some have four-poster beds.
In the lounge there is a fully licensed bar for the use of guests, and there is an adjoining Victorian conservatory
which overlooks the attractive country garden.

Steyning is rich in history and its old streets are full of timber-framed buildings. Overlooked by the
famous Chanctonbury Ring, the area abounds in lanes and footpaths linking Downs, river
and small hamlets, many with ancient churches and small inns.
