I could not recommend this quaint quiet (un)traditional Bed and Breakfast more highly if I tried. Susie and Mike are the nicest and most jubilant hosts you could ask for. I had a wedding in Hurstpier Point and was able to find a room and board last minute with them. The local Travel Lodges etc were all booked up and thank god as it meant I found this gem. The gardens are impeccably maintained, the views they offer across the english countryside impressive, its quiet, convenient and more than one would expect for the price. I will be back!!Thank you Mike and Suz for sharing your home with everyone who stays with you. You're doing the Lords work!!

Beautiful B&B with warm and friendly hosts - stunning rural views and a wonderful breakfast. Hot drinks available in our room and in a beautiful communal breakfast room. Our dog was welcomed and very happy with his doggy treats. Very comfortable bed. Beautiful walks from the door up to the South Downs. Will definitely look forward to returning!

From the moment we arrived I knew this was the perfect place for tranquility and relaxation. The owners are absolutely charming, they went out their way to make every second of the stay stress free. Their wonderful personalities shone through the beautiful interior of the clean and quirky rooms. The grounds, surroundings and views are breathtakingly picturesque. All this with some visually artistic breakfasts that were fresh, Inspiring and flavoursome with every mouthful. I would highly recommend a stay here with no hesitation. We have stumbled across our new Brighton Marathon weekend retreat and were looking forward to returning in the future. Thank you 🙏🏼

What a wonderful place to stay, one of the most beautiful places I've stayed in. The bedrooms, communal areas and grounds are stunning and so well thought out. To top it off, Susie and Mike are an awesome team, so kind and welcoming and genuinely want you to have the best stay possible. The breakfast is also divine and presented beautifully with fresh produce from the garden. I will definitely be returning and recommending to friends!

My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our stay. The house and gardens are beautiful and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud. The owners are incredibly friendly and helpful. We had a tasty fresh fruit salad and full vegetarian breakfast in their pretty breakfast room. I'm hopeful that we get to visit again 🤩
