This is a very traditional pub, but feels very welcoming. They have kept things quite traditional and welcome all kinds of people. Every Tuesday they have a quiz night.The rooms are on the far end of the pub, so it is very quiet at night. The room was very basic, but had everything I needed - a single bed, a bedside cabinet and an en-suite bathroom. There was a built in wardrobe, with a full length mirror on the inside of the door. I didn't need to use either, but nice that they are there. There was also a desk with chair and a small TV stood on the desk. I didn't use the TV. I put my phone on the desk, in order to use the plug to charge my phone. I couldn't see any other plug sockets in the room. The bed was comfy enough. I managed to get the right temperature on the shower this morning. There was a shower curtain. Never my favourite thing to use.The toilet was quite a slow flush. It was quiet for breakfast time. A few workers came in after I had started my breakfast and sat in the main pub. They ordered breakfast, which was nice to see local working people coming at breakfast time. This was around 8.30am. There was a variety of choice for cereal, along with fruit and yoghurt. I had the full English breakfast. This didn't include black pudding, which I'm happy not having. I would have liked a side plate for my toast, rather than it having been put on the plate. I would stay there again.

Parking is good. It is noisy, at least the room we had at the front had a lot of road traffic. They could do with double/secondary glazing. The service was good and the staff friendly.

It’s a pub with rooms. Breakfast was nice, the staff were friendly. The room was very dated, marks on the bedding but the bed was comfortable. The window didn’t shut properly so could hear the busy road most of the night. There was damaged floorboards in the bathroom. The walls are so thin you can hear next door plugging something in, the room was fairly dusty and no plugs by the bedside.

We had to go to Linfield for the. BBC Radio Sussex & Surrey community awards & found this to be the most promising place to stay the night. It turned out to be excellent! The room was very comfy & had everything we need including tea/coffe making, TV & very comfortable bed. The included breakfast was manor from heaven. The staff were friendly & helpful. We are now on our way to Scotney Castle & on our way back to Worthing will visit Standon Hous, feeling well fed & relaxed. Highly reccomended. Kirk & Alex Dickenson
