Our charming & comfortable old Manor house sleeps up to 20, with Jacuzzi & Pool.

Pekes Manor house is our largest, oldest and most historic house. It is on 3 floors, with oak beam ceilings, panelled rooms, and many beautiful pieces of furniture and interesting pictures. Approached up an old brick path guarded by yews, the picturesque porch opens into an oak-panelled Hall with a beautiful 16th century fireplace. From there you enter the large wood-panelled dining room, with polished wood floor, which has a cosy open fireplace at one end and a large dining table that seats 12, but can be extended to seat up to 26 comfortably. Beyond that there is a comfortable TV room, a kitchen annex for preparing food and washing up (with 2 sinks, electric cooker, dishwasher, washing machine and large fridge freezer), and finally the large fully-equipped picturesque old kitchen with its original brick floor, oak beams, a huge old working open fireplace, a 4-door oil fired Aga and a microwave, with seating for at least 12 people. The kitchen has its own entrance door and looks out over beautiful countryside. There is a wood-panelled shower room/toilet off the front hall. Access to the upper floors is by front and back stairs.
On the first floor are 6 bedrooms, of which 3 are doubles, 2 are twins and one is a single. There is a bathroom with tub at each end of the corridor, and a shower room, all of these have WCs. Stairs lead up to the second floor, on which there are two triple-bedrooms (one with a double and a single, the other with three singles) and a twin.
If more accommodation is required, the house has an access door directly into the Wing, a self-contained unit that sleeps up to 6 extra people. This can be booked separately, or at the same time.
The house has a Jacuzzi, large private garden with an extensive lawn, BBQ and games room. Guests can use the lawn badminton and croquet, the indoor swimming pool, tennis court and wander round the extensive garden and park.
Pekes is a quiet rural estate in the middle of the East Sussex Wealden countryside in sight of the Downs, and provides excellent access to the sea, the beautiful Seven Sisters chalk cliffs, the seaside towns of Brighton and Eastbourne, and many interesting inland places such as Lewes. Pekes guests can also book other houses at Pekes - which with the Manor house sleep 60+ people.

Lovely weekend away with large family group
We had a lovely weekend away at Pekes Manor celebrating my Mum's 80th Birthday. The house had everything that we needed and was a perfect venue for our family group who ranged in ages from 4 weeks to 80 years old. We made use of the swimming pool, tennis courts and jacuzzi and even did a family yoga session in the private garden. The kitchen was well equipped for a large group. The housekeeping staff who I met were friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend.

Highly recommend a stay in this splendid Old English country Manor House
15 of us stayed for 2 nights to celebrate my mum’s 80th birthday, we had 20 extra guest joining us for an afternoon tea party. The facilities are outstanding with 2 dishwashers and glasses, cups, plates and cutlery to cater for plenty more. Ample fridges and freezers too for food and drink storage. The grounds are so beautiful, the Manor house at Pekes has a large lawn at the back just for the guests staying there. Cricket and croquet was enjoyed by us in the beautiful sunshine. Others strolled around the extensive grounds that are communal to all the guests staying there. The swimming pool and jacuzzi were a bonus. I would highly recommend staying here.

merveilleux séjour dans un lieu fantastique
le manoir Pekes est un vrai petit bijoux , qui vous permet de vivre une expérience fantastique , tant dans le manoir lui même qui vous fait faire un bond dans le passé , que dans la propriété qui vous donne accès a des jardins parfaitement entretenus , ainsi qu'a une piscine chauffée digne d'un bain( (38°) un jacuzzi et de multiples jeux (croquet , tennis , badminton , ect.) bref un petit paradis qui vous permet une décontraction totale ,le tout agrémenté d'un accueil très sympatique
