Blackout meant I paid full price to sit in a room in the dark with no facilities. No reduction in price was given after I asked as I felt that I shouldn't have to pay full price to sit in a dark room all night.

Our room was spacious and clean with good facilites including a hairdryer and an iron, however it was dated and and could definitely do with being renovated. The bed was very soft and didnt suit me but that is a question of preference. We had a lovely dinner with friends. We all chise the Sunday roast and it was excellent. The service was a bit hit and miss but overall we enjoyed the meal.Excellent breakfast menu with lots of choices and staff were very welcoming. Lots of free parking which is an added bonus. My biggest gripe was that we arrived with two heavy suitcases and we are both in our sixites and had to lug them up flights of stairs and along corridors as there is no lift. Overall we enjoyed our stay and it wasnt too expensive, it is a lovely old building with lots of character but it definitely needs some tlc.

Very friendly, accommodating staff. More than adequate parking. Room was clean. But generally the state of the decor, furniture and carpets was “tired”. Situated in an ideal spot to explore Ashdown Forest.

A lovely country pub hotel

Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, I couldnt fault them. The hotel is a bit of a rabbit warren to find the room but still full of charm. Will be back

Pleasant but needs updating in places

Upon check-in we were asked if we wanted breakfast unfortunately breakfast was only served till 9 am both myself and my daughter have chronic fatigue and health issues therefore early mornings are not great for us maybe if it had been offered a little later it may have been something we would have taken however, breakfast was not an issue so it wasn’t a problem. I did say that on a lot of bookings for this hotel it states breakfast is free. I was met with quite a firm not at this hotel ! It is £12.50 per person, which I thought the answer was a little rude given it clearly states on many platforms as free breakfast there was no issue as we were not requiring breakfast but I do feel that maybe for some this could be a little confusing and therefore should be addressed with various companies offering this hotel for booking. Like many hotels after Covid a lot of needed money spent and it has not been widely available. I do feel that although this hotel was pleasant it does need and requires some updating. I feel that although they tried to keep it clean and tidy carpet especially need to be replaced they are very worn in places. Our hotel room was a twin room. It was clean tidy in most places could also do with a little updating wardrobe. Door was broken. Bathroom was okay clean but also needs updating. We’ve paid £70 for the room so not the cheapest but also by far not the most expensive middle of the rangeI think one night in this hotel is sufficient

Comfortable and enjoyable stay with excellent food and drinks. The premises were in need of some cleaning and repairs as the hotel looked a bit tired and somewhat neglected. Staff were professional and attentive throughout.

It was ok

Staff was very attentive to our needs. We only ate breakfast there; it was very good. Our room was clean. However, the room was terribly out of date. There were stains on our carpet (carpet needs removed completely). The room was musty. And being a bit warm, it was difficult to air out and cool the room at night as leaving the windows open let in bugs. I would probably stay again given the location and price but I would look very hard elsewhere first.

It is a tired hotel which needs some investment in the rooms. It is fine for a night if you are going to Gatwick airport but probably not for a holiday stay.
