Family: Children's playground and children's menus
“The characterful 15th-century inn truly shines in its welcoming atmosphere and the exceptional attentiveness of its staff, who consistently go above and beyond. While the cuisine earns consistent praise, particularly the delicious breakfast spreads, the rooms themselves might benefit from some updating to match the price point. Still, the charm, garden setting, and outstanding service make for a memorable countryside stop.”
James DavidEditor-in-Chief at Ukeastsussex
