Guest Reviews
- Michael (10/5): Hidden gem - Had a lovely stay at Powdermills. This is a real hidden gem - beautiful grounds, comfortable room, friendly attentive staff, lovely food etc Decor a bit dated and tired, but understand due for a refresh soon.
- Tony (10/5): - Very dog friendly, comfortable room, nice walks, would stay again.
- Victor (10/5): - Beautiful setting. Food was excellent
- Chris (10/5): Great Business Stay - Quick and friendly check in. My room was away from the main hotel in a separate building. The condition and facilities in the room were as expected. Bed was very comfortable. Food in the restaurant was good, the service from all staff I encountered was fantastic. Would definitely stay again.
- Elaine (10/5): fantastic stay and lovely hotel - a great stay. the grounds are beautiful and lovely to sit with a drink overlooking the lake. All the staff were a credit to the establishment so friendly and helpful. lovely room with a balcony. it is an old building which is part of its charm, the balcony area needed a bit of tlc, the room however was lovely and a really comfy bed. would return in a heartbeat
- Neil (10/5): Lovely hotel and staff - The facilities and staff were excellent and the setting of the hotel was very picturesque. The rooms were large and fantastically co for table.
- Martin (10/5): - Lovely hotel. Set in beautiful grounds, very helpful friendly staff. Very comfortable bed.
- Tristan (10/5): Friendly, character, superb grounds. - Great surroundings, and lovely old building with lots of character. Room (basic twin) was a little tired, particularly the bathroom, but it was clean and did the job.
- Ruth (8/5): - Wonderful grounds with footpath right into Battle village. Lovely room with balcony, although the balcony could have done with a good sweep. Considering the large size of the room the guest experience would have been much enhanced by the addition of a small fridge. Staff were friendly and helpful.
- Robert (10/5): - Everything was lovely Would come again with better weather!
- Sacha (10/5): - Perfect in every way!
- Verified traveler (6/5): Needs refurb - Hotel is set in beautiful grounds, but the hotel itself needs some refurbishing. We had a standard room which was OK, but the bathroom needs an update. We expected a shower, however it had a bath with a handset, very little water pressure as not pumped & water temperature went hot & cold. Extremely difficult to use as a shower. Also cracked floor tiles. Two windows in the room, but only one opened. The other has been painted over so wouldn't open. No central light, only bedside lights so room quite dark. Breakfast was a buffet, with a cooked breakfast to order. Nothing special, but quite nice with a good selection. We didn't feel the quality of the room etc warranted the price we paid. We would not return.
- Michael (10/5): - Excellent venue and staff…….very nice room
- Sandy (8/5): - Overall excellent but breakfast was disappointing,the poached eggs were very undercooked. Dinner was great.
- Nancy (10/5): Beautiful country house hotel - Lovely service and food was excellent, great breakfast too, pool looked very inviting although we didn’t go in … beautiful grounds and lovely half hour walk into picturesque Battle
- Samantha (10/5): - Beautiful surroundings
- Patricia (8/5): - It was a very attractive environment. The room needed updating a little… shower was faulty, etc.
- Lisa (10/5): - Really lovely and friendly staff
- Tracey (10/5): - Fantastic restaurant and service nothing too much trouble.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely getaway - The pictures don't do the grounds justice - beautiful, flowery and lovely scenery with nice walks and things to do. Breakfast had great choice and service.
- Anthony (10/5): - Exalent stay but a bit pricey
- Robert (8/5): Stay for a wedding - Lovely hotel room was above expectation. Prices very reasonable. Awakening in the morning to realise there were no towels but rectified with a call to reception. Breakfast was tasty but a bit on the cold side. Definately recommend the hotel to all my friends and will visit again when in the area
- Gordon (10/5): - Very nice property, enquired on checkin about VIP upgrade and told no rooms available, when in my room above entertainment area the noise was unbearable so went to reception who then moved me to another room. (All though full) so they do not give upgrades to VIP guests. Gorgeous hotel would stay again
- Mark (8/5): - 1st time here, definitely return
- Elizabeth (10/5): Nice Peaceful Stay - Lovely break. Only one night. Very peaceful . Good location for exploring Battle & Hastings . Service polite and courteous
- Christopher (10/5): Beautiful - Really lovely stay. I booked 5 rooms for a wedding and staff could not have been nicer. Special thanks to Tracey on reception and Ray in the bar. Only not picky points are that the shower wasn’t great and the beds were too soft. Powdermills is a beautiful hotel in a picture perfect setting
- susan (10/5): Weekend break to attend local events - Only booked to go away the day before but by chance found this special hotel , will definitely return . Dog friendly , staff all cheerful ( you dont always see that) service & food excellent . Lots of areas to relax in both indoors & out with lovely gardens . Only thing in room is lighting could be increased for reading
- Yumiko (10/5): - Very friendly staff, lovely neighborhood, and our dining experience at the restaurant was also superb. Highly recommended to anyone.
- Roy (10/5): - Appearance very pleasing, good size rooms
- simon (10/5): - A wonderful stay.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Relaxing Stay - Excellent hotel with professional, friendly & helpful staff. Wonderful meal in The Orangery and the overall stay was highly relaxing & comfortable!
- Pauline (10/5): - Beautiful grounds. Relaxed country estate feel.
- David (8/5): - Very pleasant country house hotel, food very good as were the staff It is dog friendly but there was too much barking for us particularly the first morning at breakfast
- Lauren (10/5): - We loved it especially the breakfast, thank you
- Lauren (10/5): - Very clean, very friendly staff, lovely breakfast
- Celia (10/5): Highly recommended - The hotel staff were very welcoming, the situation is really lovel and the food was excellent. Highly recommended
- Andrew (10/5): Comfortable hotel - A very pleasant old-fashioned hotel with nice restaurant and public rooms and a spacious and comfortable bedroom (we had a disabled room). Breakfast excellent. Dinner good though somewhat expensive.
- Stephen (10/5): Amazing and very doggy friendly - So glad we booked this hotel. The grounds and hotel were amazing. Dogs were welcomed. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was really good. The hotel room was spacious and extremely clean. You would be hard pressed to find fault.
- Stephen (10/5): - Lovely stay, comfortable well proportioned room with nice view. Peacocks an unexpected bonus! Wife prefers table service at breakfast but also happy with buffet.
- Anthony (10/5): Best stay during our trip! - We had a fabulous stay. Everything was perfect, from the welcoming log fire in the entrance hall and friendly reception staff, through to the very spacious rooms and delicious food in the dining room. We were staying with our adult daughter so had reserved 2 rooms which were both upgraded, plus we had our dog with us but this was no problem because they are very dog friendly. We had to eat in the Orangery because of our dog but it was delightful, and the food was excellent and not expensive. The location is stunning and very peaceful by the lake, with lots of great walks. It is a drive from anywhere else so don't expect other restaurants or shops nearby but it's not far to get into Battle where there's more facilities. Highly recommend!
- Anthony (10/5): Great hotel! - This is a great hotel - full of character, wonderful staff, a beautiful setting and dog friendly. We will return!
- VICKY (8/5): - lovely hotel, breakfast fantastic. Evening meal over priced and too fussy and pretty tasteless. Burger ok but pubs do better
- Debbie (10/5): - Lovely location
- Robert (8/5): Stunning But Loud - Overall, I would stay at the Powdermills again, but it wasn't as peaceful as I would have expected. The inn allows animals, and the barking was incessant (the thin walls didn't help for not hearing the neighbors either). Also, if you are allergic to animals, the inn does not have separate rooms where animals are allowed to stay versus rooms where they are not. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was incredible.
- Richard (10/5): - The staff were very friendly and we had incredible service. The food in the restaurant was superb
- Alison (10/5): Getaway - Lovely hotel and friendly staff. A few things not working properly in the room. But this did not effect our stay. Light and door handle broken. Comfortable and would definitely return in the summer time.
- Jonathan (10/5): - Great place to chill out or explore. Staff were brilliant, the breakfasts were great Lovely walks around the estate
- SUNNY (10/5): Excellent stay - Lovely room,comfortable bed and specious.staff team were friendly and helpful.the food and service at the resturant was great.the hotelvis set in beautiful surrroundings Had a great stay we will go back again.
- Ian (10/5): - A wonderful overnight stay in an idyllic country hotel, full of character and history going back to 1676. Shown around the old section by Kate whose knowledge and enthusiasm for it's history as well as the care for her customers was fantastic. The breakfast was perfect as was the room we occupied overlooking the lake. The resident peacock was in the grounds to add to the spectacle.
- simon (10/5): - amazing hotel
- Mrs G (8/5): - We loved our stay, especially the real log fire at the entrance! Room was nice size, and we liked the view and balcony. The low rise building was lovely, and the library cozy. Sadly, because of the mud, we could not make the lake walk. The food, however, was a disappointment, undercooked chicken, cold scrambled egg…
- Gavin (10/5): - Very nice
- Gary (8/5): - Enjoyed the stay although was really only to spend the night as I was attending a concert nearby. Friendly and efficient welcome and a good breakfast. Lovely grounds and in a quiet location.
- Chris (6/5): - Lovely location, staff excellent, but property & rooms now beginning to look tired and need a refurbishment. Found the lighting in our room poor, no overhead lights just low wattage lamps. Restaurant in the evening also too dark for my liking. Bed was large and very comfortable, but bathroom small with no shower and leaking taps when turned on. In places far to much sealant had been applied. Floor in our room uneven in places. That said, it served our purpose, but wont be going back.
- PATRICIA (8/5): Lovely hotel and location but question 4 statuz. - Lovely hotel in beautiful grounds but would question the four star status. Service levels varied, room was clean but skimped on tea bags, milk and toiletries, not what you’d expect from a 4 star hotel. The bath was very slippery and even worse if we used the bath mat provided (we reported this as a health & safety issue). If we ordered toast at breakfast it would be one slice each. The restaurant and bar are overpriced.
- John (10/5): - Magnificent grounds. Service was very good. But suprised there wasnt a mini bar.
- Geraldine (10/5): - Beautiful surroundings with lovely rooms and friendly staff.
- Jacqueline (10/5): Wonderful! - Lovely stay. Staff were fantastic - Couldn't do enough for you. Highly recommend if in the area!
- Zara (10/5): - Stayed for a night while looking for a venue for my wedding in 2025.and it's great amazing place so beatiful.
- Richard (8/5): A True Country House Hotel - A true Country House Hotel with beautiful grounds and furnishibgs. Everyone was very helpful and my only criticism is around the food. We took a table in the restaurent where we were given al a cart menus from which we ordered three courses each. The food was well presented and well cooked, about which I have no complaint but the prices were very high (just under £180 with a bottle of medium quality wine ). It was not untill I saw people being served dishes not on the menu we had been offered that I discovered that there is also a "Bistro" menu which is more favorably priced. We were never offered this option. I am not saying we woukd have ordered from the cheaper menu but we should have been offered. My second criticism is over the breakfast. The hot dishes are pre-cooked but, unlike other establishments, it is served by a member of staff. One sausage, two small pueces of bacon, a small scoop of scrambled eggs. I realise that this is probably an attampt reduce costs but I would guess that the amount saved against the cost of wages, even at minimum wage, is negligable. All the above taken into account, we will certainly return but will approach the catering better informed and prepared

- Graham (10/5): - Lovely hotel in beautiful surroundings. Accommodation very good. Food wonderful. Staff very helpful and friendly. Staffing seemed a bit stretched at times but this seems to be a Common issue across the hospitality industry. Location is great. Lovely walks and easy walking access to Battle.
- Rachel (10/5): - Lovely, historic country hotel in beautiful grounds. Elegant surroundings to outdoor pool- unheated but swimmable end of May. Generous high quality breakfast with good variety. Cheerful, helpful and hardworking staff. Highly recommended!
- Claire (10/5): Beautiful hotel, relaxing stay - A lovely hotel in a stunning location. Our room in the Cloisters was comfortable, clean and well appointed. Breakfast was very tasty with plenty of choice. The grounds are stunning, and the hotel is ideally placed to explore Battle, Hastings and the surrounding 1066 countryside.
- JULIAN (10/5): - A beautiful place. Very unexpected and very much appreciated. I will book again. Very friendly staff who went out of their way to assist. We both loved our visit...
- Michael (8/5): - Beautiful old hotel with great character and wonderfully furnished with period pieces. You are staying in an elegant country house in beautiful grounds. The breakfast room is large and luxurious and the staff are attentive and friendly. It's a great start to the day. Although we notified reception, there was no heating in our bedroom and bathroom for the last 24 hours. It was very cold. The compensation of £20 off the £120 room rate was quite underwhelming. Despite this inconvenience, we would stay at Powdermills again because of its elegance, the ambience and its luxurious feeling.
- Anne (8/5): - I enjoyed my stay very much and I would recommend your hotel. The room was lovely, cosy and had excellent views over the lake and fountain. However the vegetarian option at dinner was very poor, I could have done better at Sainsbury's in five minutes and a few pounds. It was dry and tastless the staff were charming when we complained and reduced our bill and offered another choice of food, so our complaint was dealt with very well.
- Mark (10/5): - Pretty location. Big comfortable room. Good breakfast. Excellent value.
- Debbie (10/5): - Beautiful country house hotel, extremely dog friendly. Our room was lovely & exactly what we needed for our two day break. All of the staff that we met were very welcoming & attentive. We couldn’t find fault & will certainly be staying at this hotel again. Can’t wait for our next visit.
- Andrea (10/5): Outstanding! - Wonderful hotel - not modern but so clean and comfortable that this did not matter - modern is not always better! Best breakfast I’ve had in a hotel - fresh and hot! Dinner was superb too! Excellent chef! Beautiful surroundings - loved the peacocks!
- Lesley (8/5): - Beautiful grounds , very comfortable bed and good quality linen
