A lovely room and a magnificent garden. Dee the host was a delight. For those who like a couple of pints with their evening meal the local pub is within easy walking distance and they have a lovely menu, a wide range of decent beers and friendly efficient staff. Intend to stay again sometime in the not too distant future.

A comfortable and peaceful property with breakfast: homemade jams, marmalade, fruits and individually cooked. A thoughtful host and beautiful garden in the heart of Sussex countryside, five minutes' drive from a historic village pub which serves excellent food and wine and is also popular with locals. Very handy for the many houses, castles and gardens open to the public in Sussex. Perfect for us to escape the noise and crowds of the seaside towns after days sightseeing and visiting friends. Good for woodland walks with or without dogs. A lovely week's break.
