Description

Description

The Star Inn is a Grade II listed building with brick elevations under a Kent peg tiled roof. An entirely traditional building with open fires, knotty wood floors and heavy beams.

With a history as a public house spanning over 450 years, The Star Inn is both perfectly placed and well used to serving the community.

Location

Waldron is a beautiful village lying in quiet Sussex countryside, dating back to the 12th Century with an impressive parish Church and The Star Inn commanding its centre. There is also a village hall, cricket pitch and recreational area.

Horam is the nearest large village, just two miles away, and hosts a number of leisure facilities including nine-hole golf course, tennis courts, horse riding and fishing.

Around seven miles away is the town of Uckfield - the home of East Sussex National Golf Club, which is one of the best golf courses in the area. The Club features two unique championship golf courses that have been played on by some of the most well-known names in golf.

Other notable locations are the historic town of Lewes (12 miles), Brighton (20 miles), Royal Tunbridge Wells (16 miles), Eastbourne (16 miles), Hastings (26 miles) and Gatwick Airport (30 miles).

Nearby railway services can be found at Wadhurst, Stonegate, Buxted and Polegate, providing mainline transport to Charing Cross and Victoria/London Bridge in just over an hour.
