Just off the South Downs Way

Great place to stay and convenient for the South Downs Way, I had a very smat bedroom with bath and shower on suite. The food was very good though a bit of a limited menu but enough for most people I would think.

Everything an English inn should be

Excellent traditional English inn with lots of charm and character. The comfortable, warm room on a freezing January night was most welcome, as were the open log fires in the bar/restaurant. The staff were friendly, helpful and accommodating and the food was to a very good standard. The Timothy Taylor’s Landlord Bitter was an unexpected bonus !

Lovely

Really nice country pub style stay in the heart of the country side. Really nice accommodation (had a few minor wear and tear issues) and good breakfast every day. Would happily stay again. Do be aware pub can get busy making car parking a minor issue if you arrive late in the evening but saying that we never failed to find somewhere to park.
