The Blacksmiths Arms

Very friendly small hotel.

Check in was quick and easy. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Whole place was clean. Room was clean and tidy, bed comfy and decent bathroom. Evening food is predominately Jamaican/Caribbean themed - very tasty - the Jamaican goat curry was the best goat curry I have had to date. Breakfast is cereals and a cooked English breakfast - we were a bit disappointed by it to be honest, 1 rasher of bacon, 1 sausage, 1 egg, some beans and mushrooms with two slices of thin brown bread (no choice of white given). We also had to ask for tea - it wasn't offered. Given the lovely evening meal we had, we were expecting a slightly better breakfast experience - may be a re-think on breakfast? Grounds could do with a bit of a tidy up. Pls don't let my "observations" put you off - it's a lovely pub (B&B) run by lovely staff and wonderful evening food. If we were to go back to Lewes again, we wouldn't not stay there again. Local taxi ride £10 into Lewes. By a busy main road so you do hear a lot of traffic in the evening and early morning.

Clean,comfortable room and bathroom. Tea,coffee,water and biscuits as well as toiletries provided . Food and service excellent. Given the usual friendly welcome on arrival. Lovely place to sty

The host was so helpful and lovely place and the very tidy, food was amazing

We enjoyed the lovely Jamaican food and there was a good choice of real ales. Nice friendly atmosphere in a welcoming environment. We would stay again.

Very good breakfast. Staff service also very good and parking was easy. Bathroom could have been cleaner.

Definitely

It’s about a 45 minute beautiful walk along the river or a 10-15 minute drive/taxi into Lewes. Lovely spot, thank you!

Clean room.

A very nice little pub. Comfy room. Good cooked breakfast with proper coffee and tea. Friendly and kind host.

Room was quite big but cold. Amenities ok. Breakfast was good but limited.

If you arrive after 4 pm on a sunday no kitchen.pub closed mon/tues..You need to know this before booking…

Lovely staff - so thoughtful and accommodating! I arrived early, coming immediately from a very long & tiring international flight. I was able to check in prior to the normal check in time and have a nice rest that afternoon. I was so grateful for that kind accommodation. I have some food, allergies and they were able to work within those restrictions, and provide delicious fresh flavorful meals. This is a small establishment and they provide very personalized thoughtful service. There are wonderful footpaths; you can easily walk to the nearby towns. It’s very pleasant to enjoy the countryside nearby.

Friendly and accommodating B&B. The room was toastie warm with a very comfortable bed and lovely white towels. Very clean! Already booked again and would highly recommend if you’re looking for a quiet stay in this area

bedroom very clean and comfortable and staff very friendly and efficient.

The property was lovely, the staff we're very accommodating. We had a lovely view over looking fields with sheep in. Overall a fabulous weekend,.
