Great menu, comfortable bedrooms, superb breakfast and friendly staff.

We had dinner there; if you wanted meat, but not beef, there were no options on the menu, which seemed disappointingly limited

The location and character of the pub, the excellent quality of the food (very good breakfast included with the room price)

Stayed in August 2025

For the purposes of our stay there was nothing that did not meet our expectations.

The welcome and helpfulness on arrival and throughout our stay from the staff. The food was of a high standard, service very good and the location ideal for our purposes.

A lovely traditional Inn with a warm and friendly welcome in a small, quiet village. Spacious well-appointed room. Delicious evening meal and an excellent freshly prepared breakfast.

Our room through no fault of anybody was very hot as there is a boiler and tank in the room(in a cupboard!).. Next time we will choose another room.

A lovely friendly pub, nothing was too much trouble for the staff who were very friendly. Not a place to feel intimidated as very often staff and guests can be stand offish. It was also quiet and apart from the intense heat as it was during a heatwave it was a peaceful place to stay. The "icing on the cake" was the food which was excellent.

The evening meal was delicious and creative - the shallot and pear tarte tatin was beautifully presented as were the posh fish and chips. the breakfast was also very generous in portions with good choices and efficient service. the pub is indeed olde worlde and had a buzzy happy atmosphere.

It was warm, and it would have been useful to have had a fan in the room

This old building is full of charm and gives you a feeling of times past. The rooms are modernized so we did not miss anything. The staff is very helpful and kind, even when it is busy. The restaurant offered a variety of dishes for dinner. We had the classic fish and chips, well made and very generous. Breakfast was very nice, again offering a variety of options. The location is ideal to go for walks, and as a stopover if you are following the South Downs Way.

It was a little noisy when trying to sleep but we put that down to the age of the building. Nothing to complain about.

Staff were very friendly. The pub was lovely and very oldie worldy. Breakfast was amazing and the price was great too

A little out dated

Close by to the South Downs Way

Room a bit chilly. Bathroom towel rail not heated, rainfall shower operated by bath taps directly underneath so tricky to adjust, washbasin tap spout too close to back of sink so impossible to get wash hands under tap to wash them properly.

Friendly stuff, clean room, comfortable bed, nice toiletries and complimentary tea tray. Excellent breakfast. Lovely village views from room, parking for car,. Would stay again if we return to the area.

On one breakfast morning a fellow guest came or breakfast and spent most of her time on the mobile phone talking and on her laptop. Which was very selfish of her as the room is small and it became very irritating to me and I am sure the other guests as well.

Breakfast was brilliant, and location of Inn was also great. Food in the restaurant also very good along with the staff who are friendly and helpful

The staff were friendly and addressed all our needs. We were able to book in upon arrival despite being outside the advertised times. The availability of a locked shed for bike storage was great.

The warm welcome received from the staff during our visit. The food was amazing!
