Hotels in Horsted Keynes

Horsted Keynes has few hotels of its own, but its position in the Sussex Weald makes it an easy add-on to a stay in nearby Haywards Heath, East Grinstead or one of the market towns dotted around Ashdown Forest. Expect a mix of country inns, period bed and breakfasts and small independent hotels rather than large chains, many set in converted farmhouses or Wealden cottages with gardens backing onto open countryside. Staying nearby also puts you within easy reach of the Bluebell Railway, Sheffield Park and Garden, and the wider network of footpaths that cross the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Booking ahead is worth doing over the summer months and around the railway's popular seasonal events, such as its Santa Specials in December, when rooms in the immediate area can fill up quickly. Whichever base you choose, you will rarely be more than twenty minutes' drive from Horsted Keynes itself, making it easy to combine a night away with a full day exploring the village, its historic church and the surrounding Weald.
