I was well looked after by the staff, who went out of their way to be helpful and booked a very reliable taxi service on my behalf. Lovely village and a good set of church bells! Would stay again.

It was absolutely excellent. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Check out and check in was super easy. We got our own entrance and exit which was a nice addition. I would absolutely stay here again

The room was small, but comfortable and clean, the bathroom was perfectly adequate. The staff were inobtrusive and very accommodating and the location was peaceful. Parking wasn't a problem and I would love to stay here again.

Used as a quick one night stay for going to a comedy gig in Brighton. Well worth the money. Staff lovely and room clean. Bathroom was not within our room but we had an assigned bathroom further round the corridor.

When we arrived the roads were busy but got a parking space so was good as there is free parking just walking distance from The Whitehorse inn, the rooms were clean but needed a bit of TLC in my opinion other than that it was comfortable and a beautiful place to stay, the owner was awesome and the staff were great, with a friendly atmosphere.. 😊

When I went on a recent walking holiday, I stayed at the White Horse for one night. It was a comfortable, warm room that was small and perfect for my needs. The bathroom has a full bathtub, which is ideal after a long walk. In terms of the accommodation and meals, I heartily suggest the White Horse. The service is consistently high quality and the staff is lovely.

Very convenient stop on south downs. If you can, find a reservation room and bring your toiletries. The food is good but takes some time to arrive which is important for planning a day. The staff are pleasant, and the beer garden is amazing.

No en suite and bathroom along the corridor. Nice hot bath. Only small enough room between the beds and the wall for clean bedding. Recently decorated room bathroom in need of renovation with stains on the walls. Breakfast is not included at night, good and reasonable pricing. Very friendly welcoming staff wearing visors.

Everything was very clean and lovely and the bed was very comfortable did have a good nights sleep.,plus good choice of food but they didn't serve breakfast..no worries there's a couple of very good café that do.

My stay was good although confusion on checking in as there was no record that I had paid a £20 deposite. However I sorted this with the member of staff. Upon entering my room it was still in a state of preperation and the bed was not made or any sheets and the bins were still open. No issue as the member of staff who showed me to my room did the honours and made the room up. This was very helpful.

Ideally situated for an overnight stay if walking the South Downs Way. Excellent Sunday lunch - we could understand why it was popular! The Landlord was very helpful in providing the best route to re join the South Downs Way the following morning. Unfortunately the nearby cafes were not open for breakfast on Monday - The Green Welly doesn't open and The Nutmeg doesn't open on Bank holidays! We resorted to buying two baguettes from The White Lion and having them for breakfast and lunch!
