Immer gerne wieder
Pros:

Ich bin jetzt zum dritten Mal hier. Es liegt ruhig und für mich passend als Start für den Besuch vieler Attraktionen in Sussex und der Umgebung. Man sollte unbedingt das Abendessen im Restaurant einplanen. Das Essen ist sehr gut. Zudem haben Sie einen schönen Gartenbereich mit Sitzmöglichkeiten im Schatten unter Bäumen. Ausserdem ist es ein altes Hotel mit sehr viel urigen Charme ohne dass es an den Annehmlichkeiten fehlt. Und das Personal ist sehr nett und freundlich. Vielen Dank, ich komme gerne wieder.

Pros:

Room was very spacious with comfortable sofa and club chairs

Cons:

No view of the garden - so not meeting description. Just a view of a wall and noise of fans from kitchen. Also very dark with nets over windows

Pros:

The building had a cosy, rustic feel with more contemporary country decor. There were, lots of different areas to eat and chat and good outside space with plenty of seating. The bedrooms were spacious. The staff were welcoming, friendly, polite and attentive despite being down on numbers.

Cons:

Took a while to adjust to the thermostat taps in the bathroom

excellent for the price a complete bargain
Pros:

Beautiful location reminded me of an old countryside home. The rooms were twice the size of what you’d expect for the cost and they included a thought out breakfast. The water was a good temperature and the beds were extremely comfortable. I especially loved the duvets. Yea and coffee were also provided.

Cons:

To be expected but slightly outdated, didn’t have an alarm clock in the room and as I forgot to bring a phone charger had to rely on the tv to tell the time.

Highly Recommended
Pros:

We were made very welcome by all the staff. Everyone smiling and keen to help. Clear explanation of how to use the keys if we were out late. Peaceful and comfortable, lots of outdoor seating so we could enjoy the fine weather. Nice dining room with a good choice of food.
Really enjoyed our stay at the Roundabout. Thank you.

Cons:

Personal preference really but I wasn't keen on the breakfast coffee as I prefer freshly brewed or even coffee pods to filter coffee kept warm on a hot plate.
