Location & Local Attractions
Explore the woodland which dominates the grounds. Outside of South Lodge, the South Downs is a dog-friendly paradise — we recommend the Devils Dyke for a fabulous walk nearby or explore the footpaths across the road from the hotel and stop off at the dog-friendly Crabtree Inn for a well-earned drink afterwards.
