A great stay
A really nice overnight stay at The Blacksmiths Arms. We received a friendly welcome and was shown to our room. Bed was really comfortable and the bathroom was lovely and clean with the whitest fluffiest towels! Breakfast was amazing! Would definitely recommend!

This place was a great find—a true gem. The rooms were beautiful, clean, and quiet. The food was delicious, featuring a Jamaican-inspired menu crafted by the wonderful hosts, Jazz and Drixie, who went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The rum punch was delightful, and the breakfast included one of the best English breakfasts we've ever tasted. It's definitely worth a visit, if not for an overnight stay, then at least to dine at the restaurant. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, making the experience even more memorable.

Friendly clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the gentle Caribbean atmosphere and were disappointed we did not stay long enough for an evening meal. The only downside is noise from the road, especially in the early morning

Weekend stay at blacksmith arms
Friendly run pub offered great service when we arrived late friday evening. Explained we wouldnt need breakfast the saturday morning as we were leaving early to particiapte in the south downs challenge. Suggested a breakfast tray they would leave outside our room. They did and included fruit, cereal and yogurts. Stayed in the Firle room. 4 poster bed very clean and bed was really comfy. Drinks in the bar reasonable priced and lovely welcome. Breakfast on sunday was full english. Options of cereal too orange juice and fresh coffee Breakfast was freshly cooked and perfect. Car park at rear of pub. Sign at front recommends to turn left when left when leaving and use turning circle 100 yards down the road. Very useful as cars speee past
