Brambletye Hotel Forest Row
The hotel clearly needs refreshing it’s tired and a bit scruffy, bathroom in particular. Car park full of huge potholes and large puddles.
Staff friendly and helpful. Price reasonable but higher than nicer venues just outside Forest Row.

Nice, classic english countryside hotel. Friendly staff and great food in the pub. Extra + for the ample parking behind the hotel. Sidenote: I recommend breakfast at Maria's Café just a two minute walk down the road.

Good service, clean, great indian restaurant.
Lovely service, they are really trying to do everything well. The room had a bath, great shower, a safe, a fan, decent kettle, the bed was remade every day and all used towels replaced.
The restaurant is highly recommended for a curry.
Parking is really difficult to make out if you arrive in the dark and the carpark is not in good condition but on street parking worked for my stay.

Overall for the price range very good. However a bit more attention to detail could be paid to cleaning. Bed was mattress was excellent however mattress topper was stained and needed deep clean or replacing. Would I stay again yes.
