Best gastro pubs with rooms in Sussex

Overlooking the reed beds and salt marsh of Pagham Harbour Nature Reserve, this ‘lovely little pub’ is not a local boozer but a very good restaurant-with-rooms.

The Halfway Bridge, Petworth

At the heart of the South Downs national park, this village pub-with-rooms is the rural sister of the seaside Crab & Lobster (see Sidlesham). It is country but no bumpkin.

Deans Place, Alfriston

An outdoor heated pool, extensive grounds, Downs views, individually styled bedrooms and refined dining are among the attractions at this dog-friendly hotel on the banks of the River Cuckmere.

The Lamb at Angmering, Littlehampton

Between the South Downs and the Sussex coast, the Newbon family’s revived village pub enfolds locals and visitors alike in its warmly welcoming atmosphere.

The White Hart, South Harting

Dog friendly, child-friendly, cosy and characterful, this historic village inn near the South Downs Way has bedrooms that blend quirky rusticity with modern comforts, a menu of pub classics and more modern dishes.

The George Inn,

Do you remember an inn, Miranda? Hilaire Belloc certainly remembered this Georgian coaching inn, from which he described setting out in The Four Men.

The Star, Alfriston

With ‘first-rate attention to detail’ and ‘efficient, helpful and delightful staff’, Olga and Alex Polizzi’s updating of a historic Tudor inn, in a medieval South Downs village, has undoubted star quality.

The Ginger Pig, Hove

Across the road from Hove’s shingle beach, Ben and Pamela McKellar’s Edwardian mock-timbered gastropub is ‘loved by locals for its foodie reputation’.
