Pretty stopover on a walking...

Liked: Well positioned for our walk on the 1066 Country Walk. Comfortable rooms and some nice sitting areas, a pretty garden with amazing views.Very good breakfasts.
Disliked: Not the property’s fault, but the nearest places to eat are in Herstmonceux 1.5 miles away - which is significant if you don’t have transport and have been walking all day.
