This was a lovely country pub in a lovely area. It was easily accessible. The room was a good size for a twin and the staff were very friendly. Great for a cosy last minute stay.

Quintessential english pub with good food and no attempt to add the optional tip, a distressing feature of so many eateries. Set in superb countryside this place is charming with friendly hosts.
This B&B was a great little find for our overnight stay. Room was comfortable and clean with a super comfy bed. Staff were welcoming and very helpful. The pub was busy when we arrived and seemed very popular, if you fancy food or a drink it all looked great.
Breakfast was the highlight, I had the Avacado on toast and my partner had the cooked breakfast.. one of the best he’d ever had he said!!
Really lovely place, cosy atmosphere in the pub in the evening and the food was excellent. Great service and the room was very nicely done, really comfy bed and great bathroom. Just wish I could have stayed longer!

Old country pub
Comfortable, peaceful, pleasant location.
Room and bathroom was clean, would stay again when in that area.
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.
Staff were disinterested and unhelpful. The room was grubby and needed a good clean, the shower didn't work properly. The countryside views advertised were a road and a car park.

This is a lovely place to stay run by a great team
The wood fired pizzas were excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast menu which was much better than anticipated for the price. The surrounding area is very beautiful too.
The place felt clean, but not so great decoratively. Paint issues around one of the windows, missing blind at the same window. Assume these are related, but tissue stuffed in a hole is not the nicest thing to look at.
That said, it served its purpose, the staff were friendly, and the food was great.
The pub is set on a country road with ample parking. The rooms are clean and modern, the furnishings are to a high standard. The bathroom is also very clean and modern with some nice touches. The shower was of good power and great temp control. The pub and food was good, nice ambience in the pub and used by the locals for food, so must be good.
