About Trading Boundaries
Music, art and a spirit of discovery.
The story behind Trading Boundaries Voyages.
Thirty years of discovery
For 30 years, Trading Boundaries has been a voyage of discovery for those in the know — and a home to the extraordinary.
Housed within a beautiful Grade II* Georgian coaching inn on the edge of Ashdown Forest, it brings together retail, art, hospitality and live music in a setting worlds away from the everyday.
Music brings us together
Amongst the exotic collection of antique Indian furniture, handicrafts and textiles, you will discover a magical restaurant bar and an award-winning live music venue.
Performances from leading international artists offer a rare opportunity to enjoy live music and engage with the musicians in a truly intimate, boutique setting.
That closeness is at the heart of our voyages: a shared love of music, memorable performances and the pleasure of experiencing it all together.
The art of imagination
Trading Boundaries is the official UK gallery for internationally acclaimed British artist and designer Roger Dean, whose work includes some of the most instantly recognisable images of the past five decades.
His highly collectable album-cover paintings and logos for names including Yes, Asia, Virgin Records and Tetris have earned him a worldwide following.
With more than one hundred million copies of his images sold worldwide — across album covers, posters, cards, calendars and books — his visionary work has helped define a generation.
Culture, craftsmanship & creativity
From wonderfully themed boutique hotel rooms to weddings and special events, Trading Boundaries offers an unforgettable fusion of culture, craftsmanship and creativity.
Whether you come for a concert, discover a work of art or join us on the river, it is the same spirit of curiosity and warm hospitality that makes the experience our own.
Spring & Summer 2027
Join us on the Danube for live music, art and new discoveries aboard AMADEUS Nova in Spring or AMADEUS Mira in Summer. Artist line-ups will be shared once confirmed.
