AMBITIOUS NEWLY REFURBISHED OPENING HISTORIC 12 BEDROOM COACHING INN, WEST SUSSEX

Established in 1386, The Swan Inn has been a cherished landmark in Fittleworth, West Sussex for generations.

As well as a bar and an attractive 45 cover panelled dining room, The Swan Inn offers 12 individually designed bedrooms. The rooms use the historic structure to provide the character and charm synonymous with the property and decorated with fabrics and furniture from leading British designers.

Fitting of a 14th Century pub, the style food and beverage is rustic and proudly classically minded.

The menu is to be simple and concise. The menu will be proudly classic dishes made from carefully sourced ingredientswith a pinch of continental know how - no micro herbs, no swipes, no foams, no frilly fussy plating.
