The location is convenient for village amenities and events, with eateries nearby and Gatwick about a 30-minute drive. On-site food is frequently unavailable, breakfast is unreliable, and Wi-Fi performance varies. Room layouts and amenities vary widely, including attic-style spaces, shared facilities, and some squeaky beds. Expect a budget, no-frills stay with uneven standards.

Oh dear. Read the reviews, thought, surely its fine for one night. Avoid, honestly, it wont be worth half of what you are paying. So many red flags on this place but the biggest for me...when we checked it in was daytime, got the key and headed to the room which took you through a dark reception room and through unlit corridors, I just thought they are saving money as daytime....no....if you get back after the pub closes, all the lights are off. I mean all of them. As in you are walking though the corridors of this very old hotel in PITCH black. The room is extremely dated. I'd guess from the 70's-80's, and not in a cute kitch way. In a time when people are worried about beg bugs in Paris, I was more worried about the plague still infesting what honestly looked like could be original 15th century carpets. Last thing...honestly there are so many things but theres only so many characters. The back door to the hotel (which was on our floor), was just open all night, it doesnt even look like it has a functioning lock anymore.

I was booked in for 2 nights but didn't return for the 2nd night. Where do I start? I literally had to use the torch on my phone to find the room and dodge beams on the way. Parking was scarce and I had to park on double yellows for the night. Exit in the morning was through the fire escape which was wide open all night. No shower in my room but didn't dare look at the shared shower given the run down state of the whole place. Will be looking for a refund.

It wasn’t terrible but I wouldn’t bring my family here. The sheets were clean, the bed was comfortable, the shower was hot and powerful . It was Saturday so the bar was open but no food being served, but there were other options to eat in the village.

It was a nice place to stay if you’re attending an event. However, the beds were quite squeaky and wobbly. Also, the check-out door was locked, which made it difficult to return the key normally; a key box would be a good idea. Overall, it was relatively quiet, and I appreciated the back entrance for after-hours access.

The place needs demolition. Customer service is non existent. The place is deserted and you have to find a way in yourself. No towels. Cold water. No tea/coffee available. Advertised as bar & restaurant but they were always closed. Unbelievable the place is still open.

Lovely old building but sadly run down, 1980s decor and facilities and no food service of any kind. But bed was comfortable and TV worked well. Price was very low though so represents good value for money for a basic overnight stay.

I made allowance for the fact that the property was family owned , not a chain. The father had retired through ill health and the son was taking over. The refurbishment was a work in progress. The price was good value. The son was friendly and helpful. The building had character. I slept well on a comfortable clean bed with good quality clean linen . I will return.

Was dark when we arrived. Rooms were very outdated. Bathroom was filthy. Didn’t even attempt a shower. No facilities for food. Propert didn’t have set close time so was already closed when we returned to our room in the evening. Struggled to find the rear entrance, luckily another couple showed us how to get in. Even just for one night I spent the day looking for somewhere else to stay. Met one member of staff. He was very friendly and helpful can’t fault his customer service. Just a shame no staff on sight all night and that the rooms are so dirty and outdated.

1st room offered, TV not working, no on suite facilties, bare boards on floor. Paint on ceilling flaking off. 2nd room, just a bed, no side lights, no facilities, no tv. Plaster on one wall not tnere revealing bare concrete. Bare floor boards with very uneven floors. Very dusty. Shared shower room had just cold water. Floor of the bathroom had floor tiles missing. This was in the OLD part of the building. The 2 rooms appear to be converted attic space. FOR £60 A night, this is far from ideal in this day and age.

The hotel consists of rooms above the pub. I had a self check in at rear of pub - the entry is very old and shabby. To be fair the lady I spoke to on the phone advised that the property is undergoing new ownership so perhaps renovation/refubishment plans are in the pipeline. She was friendly and helpful. The room itself was very old fashioned, the en suite was 60's/70's mustard coloured with an old fashioned electric heater on the wall which was a blast from the past. HOWEVER, the room and ensuite were clean and I felt a great effort had been made to ensure the bed looked clean and comfortable. The carpet felt slightly "sticky"underfoot which was slightly off-putting. However it was a clean room and bed and was relatively good value - I simply needed a bed for a night so it served its purpose.

This quaint, Grade 2 Listed building housing the bar and reception desk has excellent, family staff. The guest rooms are modern in design, clean & spacious. My son and I enjoyed looking around the village and ate at one of the various resturaunt's located nearby. Nice and quiet overnight, We left this morning to drop off my son at Gatwick Airport (30 minutes drive) avoiding the risk of him missing his flight. (We would have had to use the M25 if we drove from our home)

Contacted the property arranged a late check in. Paid for the room directly with the hotel. Hotel gave me instructions how to enter the property. I arrived 10pm, hotel had not respected what was agreed. I could not enter hotel, and it was impossible to contact anyone. Basically I have paid and received nothing in return.

This quaint, Grade 2 Listed building housing the bar and reception desk has excellent, family staff. The guest rooms are modern in design, clean & spacious. My son and I enjoyed looking around the village and ate at one of the various resturaunt's located nearby. Nice and quiet overnight, We left this morning to drop off my son at Gatwick Airport (30 minutes drive) avoiding the risk of him missing his flight. (We would have had to use the M25 if we drove from our home)

Interesting old building BUT Service appalling. No coffee etc in room, bed not made - even when asked, dangerously dark downstairs. Came home early.

I made allowance for the fact that the property was family owned , not a chain. The father had retired through ill health and the son was taking over. The refurbishment was a work in progress. The price was good value. The son was friendly and helpful. The building had character. I slept well on a comfortable clean bed with good quality clean linen . I will return.

It wasn’t terrible but I wouldn’t bring my family here. The sheets were clean, the bed was comfortable, the shower was hot and powerful . It was Saturday so the bar was open but no food being served, but there were other options to eat in the village.

It was a nice place to stay if you’re attending an event. However, the beds were quite squeaky and wobbly. Also, the check-out door was locked, which made it difficult to return the key normally; a key box would be a good idea. Overall, it was relatively quiet, and I appreciated the back entrance for after-hours access.

The place needs demolition. Customer service is non existent. The place is deserted and you have to find a way in yourself. No towels. Cold water. No tea/coffee available. Advertised as bar & restaurant but they were always closed. Unbelievable the place is still open.

Lovely old building but sadly run down, 1980s decor and facilities and no food service of any kind. But bed was comfortable and TV worked well. Price was very low though so represents good value for money for a basic overnight stay.

Was dark when we arrived. Rooms were very outdated. Bathroom was filthy. Didn’t even attempt a shower. No facilities for food. Propert didn’t have set close time so was already closed when we returned to our room in the evening. Struggled to find the rear entrance, luckily another couple showed us how to get in. Even just for one night I spent the day looking for somewhere else to stay. Met one member of staff. He was very friendly and helpful can’t fault his customer service. Just a shame no staff on sight all night and that the rooms are so dirty and outdated.

Good hotel and comfortable bed. Had cancel the second night as the hotel was closed. Access for an 81 year old was very difficult. Lots of stairs to manage. The very cold weather made it even more difficult. The manager was very good and helpful. We hope to get a refund for the second night. The location was excellent and the pub was very quirky and quite special.

1st room offered, TV not working, no on suite facilties, bare boards on floor. Paint on ceilling flaking off. 2nd room, just a bed, no side lights, no facilities, no tv. Plaster on one wall not tnere revealing bare concrete. Bare floor boards with very uneven floors. Very dusty. Shared shower room had just cold water. Floor of the bathroom had floor tiles missing. This was in the OLD part of the building. The 2 rooms appear to be converted attic space. FOR £60 A night, this is far from ideal in this day and age.
