Summer at The Chequers

Long, warm summer nights, sitting outside on the terrace with a cool glass of wine. Lingering over an elegant meal with friends. A wholesome lunch in the shade of the vines after a long walk through the woods. All prepared with the best seasonal produce and washed down with fine wine. That’s what summer at The Chequers is all about.

A unique dining experience Chef Proprietor, Tim Neal, was formerly head chef at South Lodge (where he earned the Camellia restaurant three AA Rosettes) and is a Master Chef of Great Britain. His vision is to continue to create enticing, flavourful dishes that offer the exceptional quality of a country house hotel, served in a less formal atmosphere.

The Chequers itself is in a beautiful Sussex building dating back to the 15th century which combines all the traditional feel of stone floors and a warm fire, with the light and airy space of its contemporary restaurant and sunny front and back terraces and gardens.

All freshly prepared We grow much of our fruit and vegetables in our own gardens, and source as many of our other ingredients as locally as possible. More importantly, we understand the pleasure, importance and luxury of fine food and the time and space to enjoy it.

Every dish is freshly-prepared in our country kitchen and we offer a fine dining menu as well as lighter dishes served in our bar area. We also offer a selection of fantastic wines. Wines on our list suit every budget and they're sourced from all over the globe, from vineyards in Sussex to France, Italy and the New World. In the bar, there's also a diverse range of local ales.

The Chequers is in the AA, Michelin and Master Chefs of Great Britain guides. We have two restaurants, plenty of seating and parking.
