Charming old coaching inn, great food and service

Enjoyable stay for a couple of nights. Great food, both dinner and breakfast. Friendly, helpful staff. There isn't a single right angle or level floor in the inn but that just adds to its charm. Hot water takes an age to come through in the bathroom but there is sign to that effect. Would stay again.

Nice hotel at a reasonable price in a lovely village overlooked by the remains of a castle. Friendly staff, decent pub grub for dinner at slightly over-inflated prices and an OK breakfast (improve the bacon please). Rooms are reasonable for the price.

A lovely, stately, renovated English Inn with an inviting pub and separate dining room. Bar and waitstaff were very attentive and courteous. Our rate included a full English breakfast with several choices. Set in a beautiful small village in the Sussex countryside with attractions nearby. Delightful!

Classy stay at the Castle

Location, accommodation, food, atmosphere were all excellent. Only issue was not opening window in room (disabled) and as such, it was very warm. The fan helped, but air-con or an external flow of air woudl have helped through the night.

Very Very Pleasant

Staff were so welcoming when we arrived and we were quickly shown to our rooms which were in immaculate condition. Huge shower and bathroom in the garden room we had and a sky tv was a lovely touch for a sports mad man! Breakfast was of a high quality and served to order. We will definitely be back.

Good location and very friendly staff but overall experience let down by poor quality of the bedroom. Dated furnishings and hard beds not of quality shown in photos on booking sites particulraly given that the room was described as superior.

Great Looking Hotel, Cheap Looking Room

Hotel looked amazing. Room looked cheap. Nasty chipboard furniture. “Double” bed with a big dip in the middle. Paper thin walls so I heard every fart from the room next door. Useless shower with no power and wild temperature fluctuations. Place had an iron but not a steam iron. To be fair to the owner he emailed asking why I didn’t enjoy my stay and I didn’t hold back. He replied that his hotel didn’t always suit everybody. Seems I was in that category. So if you like a bad shower, thin walls and an uncomfortable bed with 1970s furniture, book a night here!

The staff were friendly, good humoured and professional. Stayed two nights in room 5 which was fine. Second visit (same week) I stayed two nights in room 15. The 'bathroom' was the width the toilet which had no toilet brush. The tiny shower was of equal width. The small sink (about 7 inches wide) looked like vegetables had been cleaned in it as the bowl and tap were muddy. The bowl was almost cleaned when I washed in it but the tap was still dirty next day even though the bed had been made up. There was a glass shelf above the sink which prevented bending over it to clean teeth. Disappointing as room 5 was good.

Small and cosy place

I have stayed here before and it is located in a small English village on the country side. Hiking paths close by and the real feel of a true English village. The hotel is small, but the staff very friendly and welcoming. Rooms are mostly in an annex. Small rooms, but adequate space. Quiet and relaxing atmosphere. The restaurant is great and the full English breakfast gives a good start of the day. There is parking space on the back of the hotel if you come by car.

Nice location, decor lets it down

Great location, nice building and friendly staff. Booked a standard room as only there for 1 night. I was in the annex The room was compact, but not too small and clean.. Furnishings are dated, but bed was comfortable. The bathroom, if you can call it that was the smallest have ever seen. The sink was absolutely tiny and trying to use the toilet was a challenge due to lack of space.Walls are paper thin, could even hear the next room phone vibrate and doors banging. Not great sleep as ski light above the pillow end of the bed which needs better blind on there. Crammed 4 rooms into a space that isn’t big enough. The dining room decor doesn’t fit the building, way too modern. was very warm at breakfast as was most of the hotel, seemed to have air con in the dining room, but not on. Breakfast was ok as complimentary, would be very disappointed if had paid. Also a very odd conversation with another table being advising only 2 poached eggs left, but fried/scrambled fine which left most of the room slightly confused, how is that possible. Could be so much better
