This lovely old pub in the heart of in the Sussex countryside is cosy and welcoming. It's a hotel/inn, pub, and Jamaican-focused restaurant all rolled into one. The welcome was as warm as the Caribbean from hosts Barrie (Jamaican) and Drexie (German), the husband and wife combo running this place. There's a nice garden in the back for summer nights and BBQs. The rooms are pleasant with traditional touches and modern fittings and wonderful linens. The shower is a bit weak. The bar is well stocked with a wide range of beers and a good wine list from wine buff Barrie. Full English breakfast was wonderful, high quality. We noted the appealing Jamaican lunch and dinner menu and will be coming back for that.
