The Bent Arms

A great old pub with rooms in the heart of the charming village of Lindfield. About a 10 minute drive by taxi or bus from Haywards Heath station. We had dinner at the pub the first night and it was excellent and good value for money we thought. We stayed two nights and a good breakfast was included the next morning. All though the pub looks like you would expect an old worldy English village pub to look like the rooms upstairs are pretty basic in contrast. You have everything you need for a night's stay but the rooms/bathrooms could use an upgrade. It would be great if they could look and feel a bit more like the rest of the pub. Due to the buildings age not an easy thing to do but it would definitely bring more to the experience. The staff were great. All super friendly and willing to help when they can. Couldn't have asked for more really.

Lovely place to stay. Lovely staff. Such an old lovely building

The location and hotel itself is quaint and nice. However, the room wasn’t very good. Our bedroom (3) had a small window with no curtain so it got light early and woke you up as it was high up in front of you. The matress was lumpy and leaned to one side and very uncomfortable as were the pillows. I didnt get a good night sleep added to the light coming in. The bathroom window was frosted on the bottom half but top half wasnt so fairly comical as you stood up a step to get to the sink and toilet. Light cord needs to be longer. The bath although amusing to see a blancmange Shanks suit the bath was very worn you could see and requires replacing. Coffee facilities and staff all good and helpful. We had an average early start so missed out on breakfast and checking out we couldnt get in reception to leave the key.

Friendly staff, slept well and great breakfast.

The hall carpet just outside the door to the room that I was in was tucked so could be a trip hazard. Walls in the room need repainting.
