Good Hotel Guide Review
Old-meets-new in this revived 16th-century coaching inn with a large front patio, in a historic Wealden village. Against a backdrop of beams, brick walls, and velvet wingback chairs, Kentish wines, ales and ciders headline the drinks list in the bar. Hungry visitors can choose between small plates, savoury waffles, steaks, or sour dough pizzas and pub staples, alongside vegan and vegetarian options in the industrial-chic restaurant. Upstairs, creatively decorated bedrooms (some for families) have coffee and tea, fresh milk, home-made brownies, bath robes and botanical toiletries. A retro telephone adds a quirky twist. Close to National Trust attractions Scotney Castle and Sissinghurst Castle Garden.
