Stayed for a night n it was super quiet after the pub folks left. The cottage we had was realy beautifully decorated n clean, just loved it. Breakfast was wow, like truely fantastic, didn't expect it to be that good. The staff were v friendly. Loved the history around the place, it just gives a cozy vibe.
Only downside was that we didn't dine at the restaurant so can't say much about that. Would wanna have had more time, just one night wasn't enough!

I enjoyed a lovely stay with a beautifully decorated room and a large bathroom. The hotel was just a short drive from fine Pagham Beach and the serene Medmerry Nature Reserve, perfect for leisurely weekend strolls to soak in the views.

Food quality was inconsistent. My steak arrived dry. Lovely outdoor seating area and friendly staff really made the experience. A bit pricey for what we got.

Great stay for families looking for comfort
The two-bedroom suite was well-furnished. The breakfast was a standout-plenty of options, everything fresh, and the kids loved it.
It wasn't exactly on the cheap side, but for what we got, it felt acceptable.

Perfect for families looking for fresh local food
The experience we had was fantastic, the pork belly starter was superb, and the lobster wasn't just good, it was perfection on a plate! We had our three daughters with us and the staff really took care, something rare with kids!
It wasn't inexpensive, but honestly, it stood at a level worth paying for.

The two-bedroom suite was clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated, with fresh flowers adding a lovely touch. Daily housekeeping kept everything tidy, and the homemade organic breakfast was a standout, along with other meals in the cozy restaurant. The setting was ideal for exploring nearby nature reserves, but the parking situation could be improved for easier access.

The cottage we were in was realy beautifully decorated n clean, felt super comfy. Breakfast was definatey the best part, excellent food! Really loved the peaceful atmosphere after the pub goers left. Would highly recommend this place for sure!
The parking was quite limited which can be a hassle. We had to drive a bit to find more parking available, annoying.
