Fodor's Expert Review Bailiffscourt Hotel & Spa
Climping St., Arundel, West Sussex, BN17 5RW, England
Situated a few miles south of Arundel, this charmingly out-of-the-way country escape offers lovely period features, expansive private gardens, and one of the region's finest spas. With sleeping options spread out across a series of houses, cottages, and courtyards, most of which are (despite appearances) less than a century old, the rooms vary from highly decorative, medieval-style suites with four-poster beds to bright and breezy bedrooms with modern furnishings. Ask for a peek inside the 13th century chapel, one of the truly historic buildings in the grounds.
PROS
- elegant tapestry-filled restaurant
- lovely spa and tennis courts
- a short walk to the beach
CONS
- "medieval" decor in some rooms a little much
- underwhelming afternoon tea
- spa visit requires walking outside
