- Adam (10/5): - Small B&B run by Dee who is absolutely wonderful and works non-stop to make your stay a pleasurable one. The breakfast is excellent and the garden is beautiful with many different areas to discover as you explore.
- Linsey (10/5): - Lovely host. Room great, food great and the dogs loved the garden
- Luke (10/5): Great B&B with excellent host. - Great small B&B with an excellent host. The room was very comfortable and clean with a good en suite shower room. The extensive garden is absolutely stunning. The breakfast was really good.
- Carolyn (10/5): A great B & B! - A great B&B! Lovely cottage in the Ashdown Forest, pretty, clean room with ensuite and good choices available at breakfast.
- Brittany (10/5): - We had an amazing stay at the Holly House! Ms. Birchell was a delightful host and it is clear she put a lot of love into this place! Her Garden is absolutely stunning too!
- Tony (10/5): Great place to stay - Dee is a lovely lady and hostess food was great.
- Dawn (10/5): Wonderful escape - I loved this little cottage. The host is really welcoming and her breakfast is wonderful. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful. I will definitely stay here again.
- Helen (10/5): Wonderful stay. - After a long drive down from Co Durham we were welcomed warmly by Dee with tea and cake.My husband doesnt drink tea or coffee so was offered elderflower cordial which he said was the best he's ever had, it may well have spoiled him for any other now. We had a lovely chat with Dee about gardens, local places to visit etc and then shown to our room. We had the en suite double overlooking the garden. The bed was extremely comfortable. There was ample storage. The shower was excellent, the bathroom was very up to date.
The breakfast the next and following days were spot on. Plenty of choice, all well cooked and more toast and tea was offered.
The wifi is good also
Behind the house is a vast garden. It doesnt look huge because of its thoughtful layout, but it just keeps going. The garden features in an open garden event in August and we were chuffed to get a look in before the crowds.
We are now trying to come up with reasons to re visit. We will be back.
Thank you Dee for a lovely stay.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Great breakfasts - Dee was a wonderful hostess. Her breakfasts were great. So much choice. A few little tweaks would have improved things for us. The bathroom folding door didn’t close properly as there was no handle. The weather was very hot and a fan would have helped us sleep. Guest need to be aware that there are not enough parking spaces when all rooms are occupied but we were able to park at the village hall opposite.
- Ian (10/5): - A lovely room and a magnificent garden. Dee the host was a delight. For those who like a couple of pints with their evening meal the local pub is within easy walking distance and they have a lovely menu, a wide range of decent beers and friendly efficient staff. Intend to stay again sometime in the not too distant future.
- Sue (10/5): - Pretty house in a quiet village on the edge of the Ashdown Forest with a wonderful garden. Host Dee was very welcoming and always happy to answer any questions. Excellent, hearty breakfast with lots of choice. Easy access to several National Trusts properties/gardens.
- Adrian (10/5): - What a wonderful B&B. The welcome, the former farmhouse itself, the comfortable room & the extraordinary variety at breakfast were all impeccable. Seconds from the bus stops to/from Haywards Heath Station with express links to Brighton, LGW and London. Superb & would definitely stay again.
- Nicholas (10/5): - Host very welcoming with tea anx cake on arrival in the garden. Great breakfasts.
- Gabrielle (10/5): - A comfortable and peaceful property with breakfast: homemade jams, marmalade, fruits and individually cooked. A thoughtful host and beautiful garden in the heart of Sussex countryside, five minutes' drive from a historic village pub which serves excellent food and wine and is also popular with locals. Very handy for the many houses, castles and gardens open to the public in Sussex. Perfect for us to escape the noise and crowds of the seaside towns after days sightseeing and visiting friends. Good for woodland walks with or without dogs. A lovely week's break.
- May-Britt V. R. (10/5): - A wonderful B&B treated like a good hotel. Mrs. Landlady was extremely kind, supportive and knowledgeable of her surroundings. We got many choices of interesting outings. Nice home cooked breakfast and gluten-free wasn’t a problem. The room was adorable and so the bathroom. The garden access was great and was more a park.
- joyce (10/5): - Her place truly felt like staying in a home, very quaint and quiet. Such a beautiful old house filled with history, and make sure you walk through her amazing gardens!
Her breakfast was the best I had the entire time I was in England.
- Chris (10/5): - Dee, the owner was very good at making you feel invited, comfortable, and appreciated. She was very hospitable and her breakfasts were amazing. My son had a full breakfast every morning. I enjoyed my 2 weeks there very much.

The room was perfect for my two-night stay in the area, to visit relatives and National Trust properties. A very comfortable bed, and hot shower. The breakfast options were excellent and set me up for the day ahead. The proximity (within easy walking distance) of a good country pub, The Red Lion, was a bonus for evening meals - highly recommended.
I would love to return one day to Holly House, and enjoy Dee's hospitality and see her garden again, and recommend Holly House to anyone looking for a traditional bed and breakfast option.
