Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent quality food. The cottage we stayed in was very clean and warm.
If you want a cosy country pub with a log fire this is the place, the atmosphere was great along with the food and lovely room. I couldn’t fault it, and has now set the bar high for my next country pub adventure.
lovely pub, very quiet at night, great nights sleep on a clean and comfortable bed, shower was best ever, clean, good pressure and nice and hot. Food was great too, dinner and breakfast.
The Royal Oak is a lovely village pub near Chichester.The staff are all helpful especially Rebecca and Erin and the area is very quiet a good place for a rest.The beds are comfy and the breakfast is great.
We had a very nice well decorated room, with comfy bed and spacious well appointed bathroom with nice towels. A good place to stay to recharge the batteries. Set in a pretty village and surroundings.
Great last minute one night stay. The food for both dinner and the cooked breakfast the next morning was fantastic and we loved the post dinner drink sitting by the fire. All the rooms are dog friendly and they made our Vizsla feel very welcome with dog bowls, beds and treats all provided.
Nice little place, food was good, shower in room was excellent.
Very small TV, and the bed was a little too soft for my liking.
For a one night stay it was good.
