    Breakfast was good but I have never had a breakfast where I've been limited to one pot of tea or coffee with an additional pot costing £2.50.

    A beautifully decorated room, with luxurious towels and bedding. Very comfortable bed. Good tea and coffee making facilities. We received a very good welcome and we had an amazing dinner. Our main courses were excellent but the chocolate delice was unforgettable!

    There was nothing not to like!

    Well located for exploring the Chichester area. An attractive setting with a good garden in which to relax with a book and soak up the late afternoon sunshine. The atmosphere was friendly, bedroom was comfortable, excellent food, and decent ales. The full English Breakfast was delicious and cooked to order, so it arrived on the table piping hot.

    The room was a bit dark. More lights would help. The bathroom door was very difficult to pull.open.

    The food was great. Both dinner and breakfast. The staff were attentive and happy to help. The decore in the room was lovely.

    A clever blend of a proper pub with an excellent restaurant. And very good accommodation, if a little compact.

    Faultless

    Perfect location for visiting Bosham and Chichester. Ideal room for my parents as on ground floor. Beds so comfortable. Good quality products in the room. Breakfast superb. Supper the night before was absolutely delicious. Would highly recommend and already planning a return stay to visit Fishbourne.

    Parts of the car park are very tight, making it impossible for us to park a modest sized car in one section but, luckily, there was a space elsewhere. In addition, there was no wardrobe in the room (but two hangers and a row of hooks on the wall were provided). This was fine for one night but my dresses would need hanging if we were staying longer!

    On arrival, the staff were very welcoming and helpful. The room was lovely, with an incredibly comfortable bed, a huge and well designed bathroom and a Nespresso machine (with fresh milk provided). Breakfast was two course (continental and cooked) and was delicious. I highly recommend ‘The Horse and Groom’!
