Really I’ve stay,clean rooms
Lovely breakfast home cooked .
Really enjoyed our one night stay. Very convenient for our trip to the Weald and Downlands museum. Staff were all friendly, room was lovely and breakfast was delicious.
Second time staying, and I imagine we'll be back again. The room was comfortable and well equipped. The surroundings are beautiful. And the food was excellent. We had breakfast and dinner twice and very impressed.
Really great weekend break here. Food was excellent, room was great (and quiet), setting was beautiful. Would definitely stay again.

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.
