A lovely stay at a very nice hotel. The room was great, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the lounge etc are just wonderful. Breakfast was generous and made with excellent ingredients For some reason the whole building is really warm - which will be good for some people and less so for others - but that aside I wouldn’t change a thing.

A lovely nights stay in very pretty surroundings. Situated conveniently in the village and across from the church, we were able to make the most of the outdoor seating area due to lovely weather. Staff friendly and service good.

This is an excellent place to stay if going to Glyndebourne. It is handy, the staff are obliging, the breakfasts are good, the rooms are comfortable, parking is available, and the price is reasonable compared to a lot of the competition.
