Well looked after
Good overnight stay prior to going to Goodwood. Well looked after including bacon butties to take away for an early start as we didn't have time for breakfast.

An excellent overnighter, finishing with a superb breakfast. Very quiet and spacious rooms with good facilities. And only a few mins from the very interesting city of Chichester.

Amazing stay in the centre of Sussex countryside
Amazing place close to Goodwod horse and motor racing venues. Great food. We had both lunch and dinner at the hotel. Tastefully decorated rooms with nice en suite facilities. Would have loved to have booked same period next year, but all rooms already fully booked. Lovely landlady / chef owner.

From the moment I arrived I felt welcome.
I had a wedding cake to deliver the next day and the chef kindly stored it overnight in his walk in fridge.
I was shown to my very comfortable room and all facilities explained.
Breakfast choices were huge and delicious.
Staff were polite and friendly.

Lovely Surprise
This was a lovely surprise. Stayed one night for a family wedding nearby, having driven past the pub hundreds of times through many different incarnations. The rooms were super clean, looked brand new and had everything we needed, the service was great and the breakfast hit the spot. It's a proper lovely traditional country pub.

We were tended to by courteous, pleasant staff. We did not require breakfast and the management reduced our bill taking this into consideration. The bedroom was spotless and very comfortable. It was a peaceful night which was undisturbed. The only possible thing missing was that no shower cap was provided! :-)

A return to Sussex. Like coming home.
This was just the place I had hoped it would be. My wife and I enjoyed the great character, olde ‘worlde’ charm, really good and welcoming service. Quiet rooms. The food was simple (don’t expect Cordon Bleu), plentiful and very tasty. We were told they had lots of walkers and cyclists from the Centurion Way. We’ll be back.
