Set in the South Downs National Park, a stay in Cedar Lodge is a real opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Along this 160km National Trail, you can walk through ancient woodlands, carpeted with bluebells; watch roe deer darting through wildflower meadows; witness hares boxing or even spot a red kite hunting above.
There’s so much to do and see in the South Downs area, from walking, cycling or horse riding across the Downs, exploring wildlife in the wetlands, visiting one of the many heritage sites to experiencing opera at the world famous Glyndebourne. You can rely on this property to supply everything you need to keep you occupied during your stay.
The site is adjacent to Hassocks community football club - it is likely guests will hear some low level match noise during games.

A lovely, lovely place. So peaceful at the end of a day out. We saw a fox and 2 different kinds of woodpecker from the lodge. Would definitely go back (which I never say). Great location, ideal for Brighton and many other surrounding towns and villages. Highly recommend

This being our 6th year in a row here , it’s excellent for bringing our King Charles dog . 🐶 This was his holiday open fields , lovely walks through the woods absolutely loved it . it’s safe nice long drive up-to excellent lodges that are very well looked after by the team . Very clean, inside and out .not to far from the lovely garden centre next door , all the excellent shops in the village from take out to self cook . We have loved our time here but unfortunately this is our last we lost are beloved dog Bentley month before our holiday or rather his holiday but we came to give him his time that he would have loved 🥰.
