About
Built in the 1260's The Star is a half timber-framed building, typical of East Sussex. Whether you are looking to relax and get away from it all or activate your sense of adventure, The Star makes the most perfect place to escape to.
Inside, criss-cross black beams create a striking ambience, with open fireplaces and cosy fires. The warmth continues throughout the hotel from the welcoming hospitality offered by all the staff.
The village of Alfriston is a blend of great history and cultural aesthetics. Crammed with period buildings, it offers a mix of fine shops to explore and various places of interest, such as ‘The Cathedral of The Downs’, accessed by a narrow Sussex lane or ‘twitten’.
The discovery doesn't stop here. Take one of the many walking routes through the beautiful Cuckmere Valley, visit Charleston Farmhouse – a summer retreat for the Bloomsbury Group. Perhaps travel further and experience the gentility of Eastbourne or the vibrancy of Brighton.
Days out are many and varied from The Star – but of course if you prefer, simply opt to relax and let us look after you.
