Finally the weather has relented and the garden is looking fabulous. The menu has reflected the changes of the seasons, with wonderful local produce from Sussex asparagus and strawberries, Plumpton Roe deer and local beef. We also have a special “Fishmongers’ Friday” menu, showcasing the best local seafood Sussex has to offer.

Check out the local walks feature on the website, a guide to walks in the area so that you can take a nice stroll and work up an appetite, or walk off the meal you just enjoyed with us. We look forward to welcoming you.

Best wishes,

Rob and the team.
