Description

Friendly pub with sunny [weather permitting] conservatory, wood block floor, exposed brickwork, old Victorian stove and roughly-hewn wooden beam in the middle of the bar that looks like it is holding the ceiling up. The pub is a free house with several different beers - local and otherwise - and is rumoured to have the widest bar in Sussex. Local JB cider [made in Maplehurst] is also sold at the pub. Be warned - it's strong stuff!

The White Horse has been the North Sussex CAMRA Pub of the Year. The local area near the White Horse has a website - Copsale Hall

How to get there

By car
Maplehurst is a small hamlet south of Mannings Heath and Nuthurst. It is about 1 mile [1.6 km] from the A272 at West Grinstead.

Cycling
The best mixed off/on-road route is via Pedlars Way [end of Queensway]. Turn right at the top of Pedlars Way and cycle to Southwater village. Join the Downs Link bridleway just near the shops - immediately after the old railway bridge - and head south. Leave the Downs Link at Copsale, as the bridleway crosses the road, and turn left signposted Maplehurst [1.25 miles / 2 km from Copsale]. Turn left at Maplehurst and then immediately right - you should see the pub on the right.

The most direct on-road route is to cycle out of Horsham on the A281 Brighton Road past the Dun Horse Inn at Mannings Heath. Turn right at Monks Gate [0.5 miles / 0.75 km after M Heath] and continue through Nuthurst and on to Maplehurst - turn left in Maplehurst to the pub

Suggested cycling routes from here

There are some quiet country lanes in the triangle between Maplehurst - Southwater - Horsham.

Or continue south on the Downs Link to the Windmill at Littleworth, Partridge Green and the Fountain Inn at Ashurst - and then the south coast!
