Stayed here one night as I was attending a wedding down the road at Farbridge. The property, room and facilities were all lovely. Comfy bed, nice fluffy towels and the room had everything you could need. Plenty of parking and nice garden. The staff were welcoming, including Ruby the dog, and the breakfast was amazing! And very nice to have my gluten intolerance accommodated for at breakfast too. My only slight negative is the price but it was perfect location and only a 20 min walk to the venue (3 min drive).

Was an ok place to stay but not great. Room was mostly ok, bathroom needed some TLC. Biggest complaint was the breakfast. Crockery and cutlery hadn't been cleaned properly. Food was not served hot. Was just an ok place...

Amazing stay in the centre of Sussex countryside

Amazing place close to Goodwod horse and motor racing venues. Great food. We had both lunch and dinner at the hotel. Tastefully decorated rooms with nice en suite facilities. Would have loved to have booked same period next year, but all rooms already fully booked. Lovely landlady / chef owner.

From the moment I arrived I felt welcome. I had a wedding cake to deliver the next day and the chef kindly stored it overnight in his walk in fridge. I was shown to my very comfortable room and all facilities explained. Breakfast choices were huge and delicious. Staff were polite and friendly.

Lovely Surprise

This was a lovely surprise. Stayed one night for a family wedding nearby, having driven past the pub hundreds of times through many different incarnations. The rooms were super clean, looked brand new and had everything we needed, the service was great and the breakfast hit the spot. It's a proper lovely traditional country pub.
