We were so lucky and fortunate to be able to celebrate the day at the Ockdean manor in Cuckfield, where the staff and facilities there were so welcoming and friendly

We were so lucky and fortunate to be able to celebrate the day at the Ockdean manor in Cuckfield, where the staff and facilities there were so welcoming and friendly. The food was sensational and the restaurant dining room was fantastic. We really cannot thank them enough for making the day extra special. Highly recommend the resturant and garden.
