BED AND BREAKFAST
These B&Bs have been picked because they are in easy distance to Gatwick airport or East Grinstead. You could take a taxi or rent a car or van for the weekend if you are a group.
Belmont Bed and Breakfast Horley
Grinstead Lodge, East Grinstead
Chestnut Guest House - We have input from a Scientologist who stayed here last year: Positive sides to the place was that they had the whole house to themselves. Everything is there that you need for breakfast but you make it yourself which is also good for midnight snacks! Apparently the owner put so many people in the rooms with folding beds that there was not much space left to walk however it is an upstat place so one can only assume that she was trying to accommodate the amount of people who arrived.Armani Guest House, Worth Road, Crawley
Armani Guest House, Ifield Road, Crawley
Bolebroke Castle - Bed and Breakfast Henry the VIII's style!
There are also more local bed and breakfast places that you can find on the website, www.bedandbreakfast.uk.co

HOSTELS
Hostels are good for very cheap accommodation. There are none very close to Saint Hill so you must get your tranport worked out. They would be ideal for a large group arriving in a coach.

New Millenium Hostel 639 - limited availability and also in London
Thameside - has 320 beds and availability good currently. It is located in London as the name implies! Therefore about an hour and a half away.
Brighton - limited availability. No beds on the 19th, 30 beds on the 20th and 50 beds on the 21st. It is an hour away.
