Donn United Kingdom

All staff are well trained, professional, polite and extremely helpful. Special mention to Jade who organised our reception and made sure we had everything we needed, she really helped to make the day special. All our guests commented on the lovely food and great service. Room with four poster and Jacuzzi bath was fab. Excellent full English breakfast with juice, cereals, pastries and good strong coffee. BTW the Chef is amazing and ensured that we had everything we had asked for. beautiful location in Bramber village just below Bramber castle, close to south downs and downs link. Thank you to all the staff, you made our day.

Roberts United Kingdom

Room very satisfactory. All meals served in my room.

John United Kingdom

The room was super comfortable and there was little intrusive noise from outside. The staff were very helpful and friendly, and there is loads of parking - the place is bigger than it looks from the street. The location - outside Brighton but within easy reach, and in the middle of picturesque countryside - is fabulous.
