Welcome to Duddleswell Café & Lifestyle

The old Duddleswell Tearooms has a new name and a fresh offering.

We are open Thursday to Sunday from 9am to 4pm serving a counter service café menu. We don’t take bookings unless for private events and payment can be made by card or contactless.

Enjoying a magical Ashdown Forest setting, we are dog friendly with seating inside and outside under the awning on our front patio.

Limited free parking is available in a designated bay to the front of the café or paid parking in the Ashdown Forest Duddleswell carpark directly opposite (TN22 3JR). Several alternative forest carparks are easily accessible, including Hollies (TN22 3JA) which is a 15 minute walk across the forest to the back of the Duddleswell carpark.
