The Stonemasons Inn

  • Inn Details

    Our aim is to provide comfortable accommodation in this wonderful building with its medieval oak beams and character fireplaces, combined with the very best of hospitality, home cooked food, local ales, wines and spirits. Situated on the very edge of the historic town of Petworth, opposite the magnificent Petworth House and Petworth Park, the Stonemasons Inn is ideally located to wander around Petworth’s many antiques shops, to explore the rolling hills of the South Downs, or simply to stop off and recharge the batteries on the way to the South Coast. The Stonemasons Inn is an ideal base from where to explore the South Coast and Sussex, with Goodwood, Fontwell and Arundel only a mere 20 minutes away, while the polo fields of Cowdray are even closer. The origin of The Stonemason’s Inn is as a row of fifteenth century buildings, probably all cottages. It is uncertain when the buildings were first used as a hostelry, but the position on the outskirts of the town and near a busy road junction would have been a prime one for many centuries. The present use certainly dates from at least 1780 and the Inn has been variously called Vinson’s, The Mason’s Arms, The Trap and latterly The Stonemason’s Inn. Much effort has gone in to preserving parts of its history, as evidenced by the quaintly named Uncle Jed’s Parlour, and Mrs. Smith’s cottage-both used now as dining areas-where fires glow in their open hearths in winter. We pride ourselves on the quality of our home cooked food and well kept local ales from national and micro breweries, while our comfortable en suite accommodation boast lots of character: although the amenities are entirely modern!
