About East Sussex National
East Sussex National’s wedding offering centres on flexibility and choice across a range of licensed ceremony spaces and reception rooms set within its extensive East Sussex countryside grounds. The resort holds a civil ceremony licence that extends to four indoor spaces; including the Pavilion Restaurant with panoramic views, the Lynx Suites suitable for more intimate gatherings, and the Clubhouse Ballroom – as well as an outdoor Birdcage option on warmer days.
Couples work with a dedicated wedding team from planning through to the day itself, with packages that can be tailored to suit individual preferences. Available suites vary in scale, giving options for larger gatherings as well as more private occasions, and menus aim to reflect a range of tastes with food prepared in line with the resort’s 2 AA rosette standard.
After formal proceedings, the resort’s spa and leisure facilities – including a pool, sauna, steam room and gym – offer places to relax. Accommodation is provided in luxury suites, with preferential rates available for guests, and dining experiences range from afternoon tea to multi-course wedding breakfasts. The grounds and interiors present varied settings for photography and guest experiences, and the venue supports bespoke elements for weddings, with the wedding team available to adapt arrangements so the day reflects the couple’s priorities.
