Beautiful historic place to stay, situated in a picture postcard village. We loved staying here and found it very practical given we were in the area for a music festival. The room was very comfortable, amenities very good and the staff were extremely helpful in helping us check in early! Breakfast is made fresh for each guest when they book breakfast and the pub's setting is lovely with all the original features of the coaching inn. We stayed during some very hot days so had to have the windows open at night which was fine for us as we were not on the ground floor (the room did have a fan which was useful although its power was not the strongest). It was a great stay and we will definitely be staying here again when back in the area.

We received a friendly welcome and were shown to our room in an outside building.
Sadly had to get a member of staff back as the toilet had not been cleaned at all.
Pub was very quiet for a Saturday. As for the Sunday, we had an evening meal elsewhere whilst out and aimed to drop into the pub to request some more milk and teabags for the room and found the pub already shut. Was advised next day it shuts by 6 on a Sunday. Luckily we had other drinks. Would have been nice to have known this in advance. On returning to the room found a blind over one of the skylights was broken.
Food on offer for breakfast was good.
Evening menu is very expensive and not a typical pub menu.

Good service and good food. Room small. Shower extremely small although en suite room acceptable. Cooling facilities very poor. Outside temperature was very high with no options to disperse the heat. Slept no more than 3 hours and decided to check out the next day despite having paid in advance. In short, lovely pub and restaurant but poor accommodation.

When we got some paper napkins to clean the chest of drawers where the TV was it came away very dirty! (I had noticed it wasn’t clean). Same with the side tables. The carpet was also unappealing - old and stained as were the decorative cushions - one with a very large stain.

Very nice room with a queen sized bed. Clean and well presented and separate from the pub which meant it was quiet. Hottest day of the year highlighted lack of a/c or fan.

Would have liked more power sockets to charge phones etc but overall good accommodation, suitable tea and coffee making and complementary biscuits.

Breakfast was good, full English available buffet style. Nice pub and reasonable food for dinner.

Great location for Bluebell Railway and Sheffield Park Gardens.

We stayed in room 1, first impressions looked lovely, however when u looked deeper, around the front doors behind curtain cob webs. Cob webs behind bedside tables. The blind in the bathroom was full of dust. So overall the cleanliness was very very poor.

Bed very uncomfortable. Needs a really good overall.

Bull is a great pub, quality drinks and food. The accommodation is self contained, quiet and of a good quality/standard. The only thing I didn’t like was the bed. It was far past its best and needs to be replaced, very hard, lost its shape and has springs poking out…. I am sure that I had the dodgy room, so rest of the place will be amazing!

I would definitely come back, but hope to get another room…

Sadly we had to book breakfast over the phone the previous night,that is any one picked up the phone, we realised this when our answer phone message wasn’t passed on . It felt like the owners really didn’t care for their guests and didn’t want the hassle in dealing with them. The poor young lady was coping well with the problems thrown at her but we definitely will not be staying there again.

Beware which room

Beautiful pub, good food, continental breakfast and service BUT do not stay in twin room. En-suite tiny, basin is so small and is inbuilt on the toilet cistern, impossible to use! Noise from keys in door locks is very disturbing. Window really difficult to slide open, is on the ground floor and large opening so you have to close it at night. You could clearly view one bed through a large open keyhole.

My stay was spoilt by a group of guests who had little and no concern for other guest and continued to be loud and and creating noise into the early hours making for a pour nights sleep. This was capped with a couple of the said guest creating a fire in their room and activating the fire alarms at 3am in the morning and waking all the other guest who were forced to evacuate their rooms. A group of unthoughtful and rude individuals that spoiled what would have been a good stay.

The Bull is a quaint pub with an accommodation block at the rear. My room has to be one of the smallest I’ve ever encountered. The main room was so small that the double bed only just fitted with a side table on each side. There was no other furniture in the room because there was no space. It’s annoying when you need to work.

The bathroom was equally tiny with small shower cubicle. The door from the bedroom to the bathroom could only be partially opened as it snagged on the basin.

The food was disappointing although the service was friendly. Breakfast was much better.

Overall, I’m not sure I would return to the Bull on the Green.

Not deluxe accommodation

Booking in, the bar manager was quite rude.
Nothing in the room made the accommodation deluxe. Comfortable bed,but all beds should be comfortable. Put my elderly mum on a different floor to myself,when there were no other guests staying. Didn't feel safe as the locks had been taken out of the outer door. Missing light. Someone else's towel left on the door hanger. Toilet squeezed in by the shower. Things reported but no answers given. Very disappointed as the stay was a treat for my mum's birthday. Not a friendly atmosphere.....Nice Bakery next door and lovely cafe up the road.

£80.00 per night B&B with no breakfast.

The host (nick name of Splash) was rude, abrupt and mostly unhelpful.
On arrival we were informed that chef did not arrive until 8am so no breakfast until after that, clearly far too late for anyone going to work!
We were then informed that the bar would close at 9pm every evening! even for residents, nobody on site after that time at all.
Due to covid, no room cleaning, this is now being offered at most hotels, but was not an option here, no offer of replacements teas coffee etc or even toilet rolls, you had to go and ask.
Customer care not heard of here I am afraid you were the last consideration, he even informed me that the pub down the road would also be closed at 9 if not before, which was complete rubbish.

This is a beautiful old pub set in a very pretty East Sussex village - the sort you see in films of \"Olde England\", made complete by a fair on The Green! All the staff were so friendly and made us welcome, and the food was good, although the menu was rather limited. The room, in a converted barn(?) at the back was clean, spacious and well equipped with everything we needed. Although some of the rooms were on the ground floor, ours was at the top of a fire escape, which could have been a problem if we had been any older or infirm, but at least we felt secure, despite the noise coming from another guest room. Unfortunately we had to leave very early and missed the breakfast, which I am sure would have been exceptional, as was our very short but enjoyable stay. Would we come back? You bet!
