Report
Spend two nights here in April 2016. We cycled from Brighton as part of a little tour we were doing, and as soon as we rocked up on our bikes Lizzie and Paul welcomed us (as if by telepathy!) straight away. After being shown around (the Castle View room is stunning, never have I seen a room with more windows, and the sitting / breakfast area is delightful) we were served tea and cake. Lizzie's homemade lemon drizzle and raspberry cake, as well as her flapjacks, were so so so good. The views from the garden and sitting area, as well as the Castle View room, are quite something.
