Hotels in Barcombe

12 handpicked places to stay

Barcombe makes a relaxed base for exploring the Ouse Valley and the northern edge of the South Downs National Park, though the village itself has few hotels of its own. Most travellers looking for a proper hotel stay use nearby Lewes, five minutes or so by car, which offers everything from characterful coaching inns in the historic town centre to modern boutique hotels, many within walking distance of the castle, high street and station. Staying in Lewes also puts Brighton, Glyndebourne and the wider South Downs within easy reach, while Barcombe itself remains just a short drive away for riverside walks and a pub lunch at the Anchor Inn.
