Contrary to its name, Nutfield Priory Hotel has
never been a Priory but has a long, interesting history dating back to 1872. It has been
a private residence, a very expensive luxurious hotel in the 1930s, a school and Canadian soldiers were stationed here during the Second World War.

Nutfield Priory Hotel is a country mansion of dramatic proportions set high on Nutfield ridge with sweeping views of the Sussex and Surrey landscape. Its glorious tall stained glass
windows would befit a cathedral and roaring log fires from its marble fireplaces set the mood for your special day. There is
even an organ, built in 1874 which still plays to this very day. When holding your reception at Nutfield Priory, you will be guaranteed the freshest produce sourced locally, and menus that change with the seasons using local ingredients and homemade dishes. The olive oil is sourced from their very own Villa Saletta olives groves in Italy and the wines are produced from grapes grown in their personal vineyards.
