We enjoyed the outdoor games. The location is amazing with so much to see and do in the surrounding area. Ruth and John were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend The Mill.

Three had an ensuite bedroom, whilst the fourth couple had a separate upstairs area with their own private toilet and access to their own shower room at the bottom of their staircase. The owner was extremely helpful and quick to respond to any questions (before and after I booked). The beautiful house and location worked perfectly for a group of mature adults.

The 3 en-suite bedrooms, and 2 other twin bedrooms with access to their own bathroom and toilet, was an ideal set up for our group. The hot water and heating worked a treat. We were concerned to read that the most recent review before our stay was negative. However all the appliances worked for us and we had a delightful stay. The dining table and living room seating suited us very well. The outside space was excellent with games for outdoors stored in the shed. The location was perfect, relaxing and quiet, being close to the South Downs and the south coast. Thank you Ruth. ##### Steven A.

Ruth and John were excellent hosts in every way, we couldn’t be more appreciative of their kind assistance. We walked the South Downs of my grandmother’s family, celebrated birthdays in local pubs and restaurants, dressed up as knights in Lewes castle, rambled along footpaths and through shady woodlands, and loved playing inside and outside games when ‘at home’. The house provides spacious but cosy communal rooms as well as individual spaces in the many bedrooms and bathrooms. A totally brilliant South Downs holiday! ##### Julie E.

The house was ideal for our needs with plenty of living space for and a well equipped kitchen to prepare some quite complex Christmas meals. The living room was perfect for our gift exchange on Christmas Day and had been decorated with a Christmas tree which was a nice touch. The location was peaceful, and great for visits to Brighton and Devil'sDyke but close enough to Gatwick to be able to pick up two of our party who flew in from Spain. On bad weather days we were quite happy to stay in and remain cosy. Overall we were all very happy with our stay and would gladly return providing our numbers don't increase to exceed the capacity of the property! ##### Andrew V.

Lots of room but still very cosy with a lovely fire. The house is in a beautiful countryside setting - however Brighton is only 20 mins in the car and there are some lovely local pubs. ##### Malcolm B.

The kitchen can be enhanced with more dishes. ##### Markus Dietrich B.

Owners friendly and helpful. The welcome basket was a lovely touch. It was comfortable and like a family home, perfect with children so not on tenterhooks the whole time. All the outdoor space and equipment. Refound my table tennis skills. Highly recommend this property ##### Wendy C. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 19 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect for group celebrations. This property was just perfect for 10 ladies celebrating some big birthdays. There's not many properties that can provide 10 single beds (if required, check property details as can also be doubles) with 5 bathrooms, which was just perfect for our needs. The grounds are beautiful, we even managed to play rounders at our age, and the local Vineyard is within walking distance, as is a Spa with a great restaurant for Sunday lunch. Slight hiccup at the beginning regarding getting in due to a lost email, but resolved quickly and the host is nearby to resolve any issues and was very helpful before and during our stay (Thank you Ruth). If you're looking for peace and tranquility in the countryside, but also want to have fun without disturbing the neighbours then this is the perfect house. Hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jeanette W. 11 Dec 2019 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### A few points Strange set up of tv - located on top of wood burner so when we wanted to lite the fire we had to take tv off of fire. Tv was strapped on. Grubby in places and oven needed a clean. As we were there in December would have been nice to have a Xmas tree. Lack of mirrors in bedrooms ##### Jeanette W. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly W. 18 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Charming Country Getaway We enjoyed a 5 night stay at the cottage as part of a celebration for my father-in-law’s 75th birthday. It checked off everything we wanted - idyllic picture book cottage, lovely gardens and well equipped kitchen. Most importantly we planned to use 5 bedrooms and wanted each guest room to have access to their own private bathroom, whether en-suite or down the hall. For our early June stay we had great weather and spent much of our daytime hours at the garden table. We cooked up a storm and enjoyed family dinners in the dining room each evening. Daytime activities included a round of golf at Singing Hills Golf Course, a visit to Nyman’s Gardens and an afternoon wine-tasting at Bolney Winery. The hosts live in a separate house on property and were delightful, helpful with great communication. Everything went smoothly from start to finish and we highly recommend booking this beautiful home for a small family gathering or even for a couple looking to escape for a few days to West Sussex. ##### Kelly W.
