Chalk Farm LDC, hotel in Alfriston

Chalk Farm LDC is located in Willingdon in Eastbourne, 17 mi from Brighton & Hove. The hotel has a sun terrace and views of the garden, and guests can enjoy a drink at the bar.

Good value for money. It's an old listed building which come with it's challenges for modernisation. You get what you paid for and it's fair. Service was good and breakfast was good. Shower issue in 1 room and we reported. Shower enclosure was small but we were only staying 1 night so we were not concerned.

    Alfriston is very old , historic and scenic.

    Alfriston is very old , historic and scenic. The George pub is from 1397 and there are other old buildings, churches and interesting places to explore. There is a fantastic bookstore, filled with great ideas as well as books. There are many walks in the valley or you can go down to the Downs of Seaford. It would be a good base for relaxing and walking but helpful if you had a car.

    It is a brilliant slightly isolated location which if you live in London must be entirely refreshing. Staff were helpful, hardworking and went beyond my expectations to ensure we had a pleasant stay.

    Alfriston is a delightful village with several historic properties. The streets are very narrow, and it is not a good idea to try to drive through the village. There are two car parks to the north of the village, one on each side of the main approach road, and cars can be parked here, (£1.40 for two hours) provided there is sufficient space. Alfriston Clergy House (National Trust) is well worth a visit, and the very large parish church, dedicated to St Andrew, is known as the Cathedral of the Downs.

    Alfriston is a delightful village with several pubs and a few small shops. Lovely walks by the river and on the Downs. National Trust Clergy House is worth a visit (the first property they bought). There is a vineyard (Rathfinney) on the edge of the village. We had good meals at The George Inn and at the Dean's Place Hotel and also at various country pubs in nearby villages.

    Sadly the accommodation required urgent renovation, dirty carpets and cheap furniture. Bathroom was modern, clean and well presented although the water pressure in the shower was too low unlike the basin which was too high. We had one disappointing and revolting meal, which was poorly presented and served. The staff were generally helpful but the management failed to be ‘fully’ apologetic for their shortcomings. On the other hand breakfast met expectations. The mature gardens were in need urgent attention by an educated gardener. The general fabric of the hotel was tired in the public and general rooms. The hotel showed a lot of wear & tear, which was a ashame ! Overall the 2 night stay was marred by a poorly maintained room and one bad meal. A beautiful ‘manor’ hotel has been ruined by a ‘modernisation’ lacking in sympathy for historical fabric just for a ‘wedding’ venue; I found the rating of 4 Star was far too generous.

    The location at the edge of Alfriston is excellent. The building has an interesting history. The room was relatively well equipped, but had no safe or refrigerator or robes. We had a very good dinner in the restaurant one night. The breakfasts were excellent, with hot items chosen from a menu. There is a very nice outdoor terrace and and a very comfortable indoor lounge. One night we walked on a small path (marked close to the car park) to Deans Place Hotel next door for dessert and drinks, which was interesting.

    There was a mix-up with the reservation between Booking.com and the hotel. I originally booked just the Saturday and later changes it to Friday and Saturday. However when we arrived there was no record of the Friday booking but the Saturday booking was in place. The hotel very kindly rang around and found us a room for the Friday. I can't speak too highly of the staff.

    The secret cottage is beautifully decorated and perfectly equipped. It was really spacious, perfect for a group of four. It's right in the centre of Alfriston, which is a really good base for visiting the Rathfinney Wine estate, Brighton, Eastbourne, Seaford and the whole South downs area. Great communication from the owner in the run up to the holiday and during.

    The hotel is ideally located for exploring the Seven Sisters, only a short drive away. The food at breakfast and dinner was of an excellent standard and nicely presented. The vegetarian/vegan options for dinner were inventive and delicious. The bedroom and bathroom were very clean and the bed comfortable. There was a nice lounge area.

    Cosy pub in attractive, if busy, Sussex village. Friendly helpful staff. Good bar meals. Well situated as a base for Glyndebourne Festival and only 4 miles to South Coast. Lisa, the owner and Barry, the lunchtime barman, were both very helpful and friendly.

    Located in the heart of Alfriston, next to the village store. Beautifully converted one-bedroom cottage with all modern conveniences, whilst retaining its unique charm. The owner thoughtfully leaves her homemade chocolates as a welcome gift.
