The Cloudesley

This property has been the subject of extensive renovations by globally syndicated photographer and Chelsea Flower Show gold medal winner Shahriar Mazandi, designer of the Lalique Garden, Chelsea 2005, as listed in Wikipedia under 'Chic Style'.Guest rooms have been hand painted in eco-limewash; a rich and lush paint free of noxious chemicals as used in conventional paints. Linen is Egyptian or organic cotton and bathrooms and shower rooms are in noce travertine mosaic or crema marfil stone tiles. The bedrooms, dining room and the two reception rooms, welcome visitors with contemporary photography, art books, objects found, wood burning stoves. All in-house laundry and cleaning is with eco-friendly products - no harsh, toxic chemicals. Soaps and shampoos are SLS and paraben-free. Hot water is provided by three large solar panels. Prints and photographs on the walls are a mix of collected works and Mazandi's own documentary images, as shown at the Royal Geographical Society, The Blackhawk Museum in California, The Sunday Times magazine, various galleries and as syndicated globally by Katz Pictures. The garden, a town garden with sea views, remains a work in progress but has apples, pears and plums, an assortment of herbs including sage, rosemary, several varieties of mint, blueberries, cranberries and various other culinary plants that are offered to guests when in season. We also have an alcohol licence. The Cloudesley is also a boutique health centre with an emphasis on nutrition and well being. On offer are a number of holistic therapies including massage, reflexology and reiki. Please review the therapies page on our website for further information. Shahriar Mazandi, the director, not only graduated top of his class but was also nominated outstanding therapist of his year by Sussex Coast College. Athough a recent graduate, he is quickly developing a reputation for giving powerful and effective treatments. We are now also offering hot stone therapy
