Nice quiet place to sleep, great food

It was ideal for going to the truck show in Ardingly. I had a small single room with a very decent sized bathroom. It was nothing fancy but it was clean and comfy and secure and the pub does great food, and all staff are excellent. I would definitely come back.

Good value

The service and warmth was first class, as was breakfast! The room was well appointed with a good bed and bedding, but the bathroom was very small, making it a little uncomfortable for someone tall (and not the slimmest!)

The staff were excellent friendly and helpful. The room was perfectly comfortable and very clean. The busy road outside was a bit noisy when we are used to quiet at night so needed getting used to. Breakfast and evening meals were good. Excellent value

Reasonable value for money

The room was perfectly adequate and the bed was comfortable. Bedding was clean but towels had a rather unpleasant smell (old cooking oil?!) water pressure in the shower was a little weak but again adequate. Certain areas (tops of plugs, windows edges etc) could have done with a wipe. Food was good and ample portions. Overall reasonable value for money.

We had a very good stay-an excellent welcome and the food was great. We had all we needed. Felt you could hear lots of creaking from above which was the only problem to our stay. Also a bin in bathroom be good.

Interesting stay at the Wheatsheaf. Had a single room with a few unusual quirks like a green nightlight that was permanently on and a bath that you could only sit in for a shower/wash. One to remember. Pleasant staff, great breakfast.
