The property is ideal for walkers on the South Downs Way and it’s only a 700 metre walk to the closest pub (via a safe bicycle path) for dinner.

Overall lovely place to stay. Super friendly hosts
Absolutely stunning view sitting on the decking in the evening, very friendly owners and overall lovely place to stay. One issue that is perhaps a personal preference is that the fold out sofa bed mattress looked old and was quite thin so one of my children struggled a little.

Everything we wanted
Cosy cabin for a one night stay. Secluded, peaceful spot, lovely views, and very friendly hosts. Shower temperature control a little wayward but our compact room was spotless and thoughtfully prepared with everything we needed. Lovely breakfast.

Perfect peaceful Sussex getaway spot
We had the most delightful 48h in the Hiker’s Rest 1 budget cottage during our weekend at Glyndebourne and Charleston Festivals. Val and David were very welcoming and helpful. There was a communal fridge to store our picnic bits, easy parking onsite, and fabulous water pressure (never a given, even at luxe hotels!). We’re already planning our next visit.

Walking the South Downs Way as a solo traveler there were limited options when I booked so about 40 minutes walk from the trail. Really need a car to make the most of the property. Expensive for a one person stopover, breakfast also not available unless pre-booked. Very clean and good facilities though - just not ideal for me.

Clean & functional room. Would recommend booking breakfast (if wanted) before arrival. We missed out as we only let them know when we arrived at 19.30 and were told in the morning that it was only available at 8.30am, we needed to leave at 8am.

Away for work
One night stay, room was cosy, so suitable for 1 night. Stayed in Hikers Rest 2. Ensuite was large but shower head needs attention. Microwave in room and some paper plates and disposable cutlery. Bed comfortable and pillows were brilliant. Large car park to rear of property and lighting outside property with sensors so it came on after dark. I walked to the nearest pub (The Barley Mow) but it did not serve food on a Wednesday night, so had to drive to another pub to get food.
