Very Good

I enjoyed my stay and the staff were great.
But I had problems getting shower going and there was no heating on. Both problems were fixed but there could have been more info. Especially as the pub was closed the Sunday evening I arrived so no help available.

The Inn is in a lovely location. We were disappointed however on arrival when we were charged for a second night even though we were booked for one. Our room was in the eaves, very snall and the window was too high to look out from. The shower was terrible - either icy cold or scalding hot.
The food served at the hotel was delicious - no complaints there.
Overall though a disappointing stay for the price - over £200 for one nighy. It wasnt worth it.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Stayed for a wedding and since it was on a Friday night it was double the price of the night before. Seems extreme! Village is very picturesque. My room was in a building separate to the pub which was possibly quieter. It’s all old so sound proofing isn’t a thing. My double bed was very comfortable but the room was quite small. Bathroom showing signs of age. Good selection for tea/coffee in room.
A nice stay for the convenience but I don’t think it was worth £150. Breakfast was ok. Quite a lot of choice but the cooked breakfast was small in comparison to others I have had.
The beer garden was really nice a lovely place to eat or drink, inside was clean and tidy with well trained staff, all this contributed to a really good 2 night stay.
We stayed in one of the cottage rooms at the back of the property and found it clean, modern, airy and comfortable. Dinner and breakfast were pleasant. A good stop while walking the South Downs Way.
Public area of The Castle Inn was better than the private. Food was very good. Room was acceptable but not very comfortable. Bed was past its sell by date. Noise from floor above was annoying. Squeaking floorboards late at night and early morning. Possibly staff? Shower took a long time to deliver hot water. Old building, so guess it’s a long way for it to travel! Not on my return list.
The place was as advertised. In a quaint village. We had dinner and breakfast, both meals were great. The bar and meal areas are inviting. The room and bathroom were clean and comfortable.
Our 2nd visit here. Lovely place to return to after a busy day and sit outside in the garden with a g,&t.
We had a large room acessed from outside by the garden. We thoughtvit would be noisy as the garden was busy..it wasnt.
We ate in the restaurant, not a huge choice but the food was wonderful.
