Village House Coaching Inn

Nice rural area, quiet and pretty. Inside the Inn, the upstairs and corridor where the rooms are situated could do with an update. It was tricky locking the rooms as the door never really shut properly. Cleanliness was fairly decent but a very noisy bed and the headrest was extremely wobbly!

It's a coaching inn in a nice quiet location, convenient for touring the South Downs. The service was fine and the young staff were willing and welcoming. However, we did have some issues. The worst was that our room (no 6) was very cold - we were told that the heating could not be turned on as it was June (admittedly an unseasonably cold spell) and we were also refused a supplementary heater on spurious "health and safety" grounds. The room was advertised as a "suite" but was in fact just a normal en-suite double room. It was clean but the bed was hard and uncomfortable. The windows were in very poor condition and the sills very dirty outside the double glazing, which gives the impression that the room isn't as clean as it actually is. We had dinner one night - the service was very good but the food only OK (we had the pork burger - a "special" but it was quite dry) and next night we went to the pub next door instead and had a much better meal. The full English breakfast was fine, but the "vegetarian" breakfast was just the full English without the bacon and sausages - it really isn't hard to find good veggie sausages these days and if I had been a vegetarian I'd have been annoyed at having to pay the same price. Really a bit disappointing all round.

Very nice stay room was clean and tidy tea coffee and biscuits in room nice tv shower and toilet were a bit tight in bathroom lovely lady i presume she was the landlady very friendly and helpful 😊

The hotel had lovely features and warm friendly staff food looked lovely.. didnt have a meal through visiting family so had food elsewhere... did have a few pints in the evening great choices of drinks and the staff were lovely.. stayed in single room which was immaculate a huge beer gardenwith loads of seating. didnt have breakfast as left early to get back to wales... overall the hotel was great and.would definitely use this hotel again.. its a credit to to you and set in a lovely little village with another pub across the road a butchers and shop/post office... plus a small car park but plenty of street parking

The rooms were clean and tidy and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Property could do with a bit of updating but overall ok

Shower weak

Terrific 500 year heritage property worth seeing as a past local coaching inn. Owner and staff are as friendly as can be and very helpful, the food was excellent, modest room size. You are well taken care of and the village is one of a kind in the region, easy bus transport to Worthing and Brighton. I recommend the Village House and will stay again.

Typical old pub accommodation, non- en-suite bathroom was adequate although the shower was challenging- certainly needs attention. No hairdryer in the room. Good supply of towels, soap and tea /coffee. Nowhere in the website information indicates that breakfast only available on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Village quite pretty and had cafe for breakfast.

It did the job, for the area price was at the lower end but didn’t have breakfast unlike others. It was a nice location and had comfortable bed and clean plus tv option was very good not something I would normally turn on but did here. They are working with an old building and you get what you pay for.

Extremely clean and comfortable. Pub is quiet. No noice from neighbours either.
