About this property

Built around a historic and charming country house, the Copthorne Hotel Effingham Gatwick is a 4 star hotel set amidst a picturesque parkland estate that dates back to 1841. It's distinct character sets it apart from many of the local hotels, yet we are a very convenient 10-min drive away from Gatwick International Airport. Very close to The Hawth Theatre, The Bluebell Railway, The British Wildlife Centre and local hiking trails, we are also within easy reach of the South Coast, meaning there is plenty to do and see during your stay with us. Enjoy a round of foot golf, floodlit tennis courts, and a well-equipped gym too - a perfect balance of activities and relaxation. Those staying before setting off to the airport or in transit will have a perfect base to refresh, rest and prepare - making their trip even more relaxing and convenient.

The website says the main venue hall can be booked while the hotel is unavailable. But after I asked about security in light of the ongoing protests, the team stopped responding. With the hotel facilities no longer included in the packages, the high venue hire cost seems absurd. There are better wedding venues nearby that are much more reasonable and even include accommodation.

I haven't been for a few years, but it used to be a wonderful venue. With 400 people there, getting the food out hot wasn't easy, yet it was excellent. Staff were attentive, the rooms were excellent, and so were the other facilities.

I recently attended an event and was disappointed by the awful, really greasy food. I also felt unsafe because parts of the hotel are rented out for government use. The place used to be beautiful, but now it looks dated and unloved. I wouldn't recommend it.

It's another beautiful hotel being used by the government and no longer open to the public.
