100% stay again

Stayed in the garden suite. Very spacious, clean room. Comfortable and friendly staff. Arrived early and left my car in the car park, was offered to check in early however we was in a rush so didn’t take up the offer but it was appreciated. Very easy to check in and check out. Friendly staff. Would definitely stay again.

A quiet , comfortable and cosy hotel which is ideal for exploring the local 1066 countryside and beyond into the south coast at Hastings, Bexhill, Rye areas It’s small, but everything they do is great The staff are lovely I particularly want to commend Toby for being so accommodating and helpful after I checked in very late one evening I’ve already booked to come back when I’m next in the area

Good value family owned hotel.

Pleasant hotel with decent public areas. Food good in restaurant but not able to sample breakfast as this was too late for business guests. Room very warm and difficult to cool even with supplied fan. Quite a tricky exit/entrance from main road depending on time of day. Staff lovely and made to feel welcome during the stay. Good value for the room chosen and overall a good experience.

A lovely property with cheery and hardworking staff that almost hit its potential but is in need of a refresh. The evening dinner menu is basic, limited and not quite in keeping with the image the hotel is trying to convey; more pub grub than country house hotel.

Lovely old manor house, comfortable -- despite heatwave conditions without a/c. Ground floor room highly suited to my restricted walking, but rather cramped. No fridge or safe. Toilet bowl too close to one wall of en-suite. Very difficult/dangerous exit from side-lane onto main road

This hotel is lovely. In a really lovely lication with truly beautiful gardens. We only booked 1 night anf the hotel receptionist was very friendly and sweet. We had a room in the main part of the hotel which overlooked the garden. The view was delightful. Bunnies hopping around and beautiful birds flitting in and out of trees. We had drinks in the afternoon outside in the sunny, warm garden. The room was a reasonable size. Large, very comfortable bed with very cozy covers and pillows, snuggly. The bathroom was a good size, no window but bright enough with the light on. A great size shower which was easy to use and get the right temperature. However, the mirror above the sink is situated too high and I could not see anything apart from the top of my head. I'm 5'6" so not short by any means. Also, the toilet seat did not fit properly on the loo and it felt likevyou could fall off easily. Something should be done about these two issues I think. The worst thing though, is that there was a lot of dirt on the floor behind the sink pedestal. This had obviously not been cleaned properly for some time as the build up was quite bad. It's a shame they haven't paid clise attention to these things because everything else was lovely. We had breakfast too and the food and service were very good. It was priced reasonably but would have been better with some attention to detail.

An ok Stay

The stay was for my husband’s birthday and I emailed beforehand to ask if we needed to book for dinner - I didn’t get a response which wasn’t the best first impression. We were told the owners were in the Canaries on holiday. The hotel was very quiet as apart from us there weren’t many guests staying. You didn’t see many staff and if you wanted anything you had to ring a bell. However all members of staff were friendly and helpful. Dinner was ok but we were asked about 4 times if we had finished when it was clear my husband was still eating so that was slightly annoying. At breakfast the following morning I asked for yoghurt to have with the lovely fruits on offer as it was on the menu, only to be told they didn’t have any as the order hadn’t arrived, so that was disappointing. The cooked breakfast was fine apart from very over cooked bacon. The website is deceptive as it is clearly not up to date. The luxury toiletries were two very small bottles, one shampoo and one shower gel and some cotton wool pads. The bathroom cabinet door wouldn’t open and you had to stretch up to the top to get your fingers to prise it open and the bathroom door didn’t close properly so was noisy if you had to visit during the night. The gardens are lovely and we did manage to sit outside with a drink (mid October) when the sun shone briefly before the storm. The hotel is a bit like staying in someone’s lovely home and although we did enjoy our stay, we wouldn’t stay again.

The room was nice and clean when we arrived but we noticed that the bathroom floor was never cleaned during our stay ( a dead daddylonglegs remained by the toilet during our entire stay) and neither was the bedroom carpet vacuumed as far as we could see. Also the floor of the dining room wasn’t swept regularly - although the tables were always immaculate. Our bed and pillows were very comfortable and the bedding was changed once during our 5 day stay. Housekeeping staff were friendly and helpful. A couple of the waitresses were very serious and never smiled, although they were efficient enough. Parking was ample and the grounds looked delightful- a big perk in summer I imagine. The breakfasts were well cooked and tasty, although what was on offer was a bit inconsistent. Would have been great to have had porridge on the menu! And granary or sourdough bread/toast would be a welcome option. The coffee was plentiful and very good. Overall we enjoyed our stay, and these criticisms are relatively minor. They didn’t really spoil our stay and we would happily book again.

The property was very clean and the room was brilliant. The horrendous noise when someone went up the stairs, which was inside my room (boxed in) woke us up at 1am one evening and 2am the next evening. The floorboards were extremely creaky and the noise of this was unacceptable. We were also above the dining room so we could hear the people downstairs and the moving of tables. Our room was in the landing which was open and the reception was directly underneath. Sadly we heard the phone ringing all the time as constant talking. Unfortunately this made our stay note pleasurable as we initially thought it would be. The grounds were amazing but the noise was unacceptable. It was not like being in a hotel it was like being in a house with thin floorboards and walls.
