Gaveston Hall is tucked well away from the major highways in the pretty village of Nuthurst. Its 100 acres of private woodlands, meadows, lakes and streams offer a peaceful and protected environment.
Gaveston Hall is owned and run by Studentours (London) Limited, who were established in 1966 for the hosting of international students, and recognised by the British Tourist Authority and the Central Bureau for Educational visits and Exchanges.
Despite it’s rural location, Gaveston Hall is just one hour from London and with easy access to the South Downs National Park; Brighton and the South Coast are just a 40 min drive away.
Your children can discover the secrets of the countryside and perhaps meet the Hall’s permanent residents: the timid deer that roam wild, the wary badgers in their sett, the foxes and bats in their woodland retreats, and the abundance of life both in and out of the water.
Make your stay as relaxing or as hectic as you choose; there is certainly plenty on offer to keep everyone busy.
