Spread Eagle Hotel, Midhurst

Parts of the Spread Eagle Hotel in Midhurst, West Sussex, date to 1430. Elizabeth the First is supposed to have stayed at the Spread Eagle, her stay commemorated in the name of the Queen's Room above the lounge.

The historical novelist Anya Seton used the Spread Eagle as a setting in her story The Green Darkness. In this story a young American woman relives a former life as a barmaid at an English sixteenth century inn. The inn was the Spread Eagle.

The Spread Eagle continues as a working hotel. It combines it's history with excellent modern facilities.
