Amazing!

Amazing place to stay with history and cozy English cottage ambiance. Great friendly staff, beautiful linens in rooms, not huge so never overrun, in a quiet area about 12 min taxi from Gatwick airport. Absolutely wonderful food options and portions. Can’t stress these awesome things enough! Wish I could stay there!

The staff were very friendly and the room was beautiful but it was on the same level and overlooked the beer garden, so I think that this could be a problem in the summer. It also had an interconnecting door, which meant I could hear my noisy neighbours very clearly!

Great stay

Had a fantastic stay here prior to an early flight. Lovely welcome and we ate in the pub which was delicious-highly recommend and the service was excellent too. We needed to leave too early for breakfast and the team were kind enough to put a little continental pack together for us. Will absolutely stay again in future
