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.

We stayed in one of the cottage rooms at the back of the property and found it clean, modern, airy and comfortable. Dinner and breakfast were pleasant. A good stop while walking the South Downs Way.

I enjoyed my stay and the staff were great.
But I had problems getting shower going and there was no heating on. Both problems were fixed but there could have been more info. Especially as the pub was closed the Sunday evening I arrived so no help available.

The Inn is in a lovely location. We were disappointed however on arrival when we were charged for a second night even though we were booked for one. Our room was in the eaves, very snall and the window was too high to look out from. The shower was terrible - either icy cold or scalding hot.
The food served at the hotel was delicious - no complaints there.
Overall though a disappointing stay for the price - over £200 for one nighy. It wasnt worth it.
