Lovely room, nice rural location

Staff were very friendly and accommodating. We were not made to feel rushed, even though we arrived as the restaurant should have been closing. Excellent evening meal.

Need a good place close to Gatwick Airport? This traditional pub-hotel was terrific, with some notable caveats. Although our reservation was made months in advance, we somehow got stuck with a an adjoining building attic room (no alternative was available), up a steep flight of steps, not ideal for the elderly. Luckily, the weather was not excessively hot; a fan was not provided. Although the room was small, it was modern and comfortable, with plush carpeting and a king-size bed. A large LED TV was mounted on a side wall, making bedside viewing awkward. The large walk-in rain shower was nice, but the controls were a bit enigmatic. Unlike many English lodgings, various and convenient USB charging was available. We enjoyed the cozy ambiance of the pub, a few beers and a local English cheese plate. The staff were cheerful, friendly and inviting.

The staff were very friendly and the room was beautiful but it was on the same level and overlooked the beer garden, so I think that this could be a problem in the summer. It also had an interconnecting door, which meant I could hear my noisy neighbours very clearly!

Amazing!

Amazing place to stay with history and cozy English cottage ambiance. Great friendly staff, beautiful linens in rooms, not huge so never overrun, in a quiet area about 12 min taxi from Gatwick airport. Absolutely wonderful food options and portions. Can’t stress these awesome things enough! Wish I could stay there!

Staff were the highlight…

The staff were very friendly/efficient and the food was great. The only negatives were a lack of water pressure in the room and the height of the bed…

The Old House Inn is a lovely little hotel with delicious meals and friendly staff. It is close to the Gatwick airport (10-15 minutes drive) with a lot more English charm than larger hotels at the airport. The property is beautiful but it is worth noting that the surrounding area is really only accessible by car/not walkable as there were no sidewalks or foot paths. We didn’t have a car but it was the perfect place to relax before a big flight.

Lovely Stay

Staff really helpful and welcoming. Service and food in restaurant excellent. Room lovely, just too hot and bed frame very noisy. Also green light on ceiling which was on all night made room to bright for us.

Required accommodation with our dog, for Gatwick Airport. Fulfilled all our needs. The room was ideal with access to the spacious garden.Very good parking with easy access to our room. The beer garden was a bonus, very quiet when we were there. Had an evening meal which was very good. The staff were exceptional, very friendly.
