We were blown away by this beautiful place! The views and environment is absolutely breathtaking. We met some really lovely people and the young men who worked there in the evenings were helpful and very professional yet kind to everyone. The kitchen is well kitted out and there is a good system for marking your own food in the fridge etc. The showers were really good too and we thoroughly enjoyed sitting in the comfy sofas with the best view in the South Downs. The little restaurant serves delicious food and drinks too.

Loved it!
This place was really cool! We had 1 room for 6 people which had bunk beds for everyone. We stayed for 2 nights. The beds were comfortable and the room was spacious for all of us. The room came with a sink and mirror. The toilets and showers are shared with others on your floor. The hotel felt very secure and safe. The area is very quiet. There is space outside for tents/camping. There's a community room upstairs with games, a shared kitchen, meal options, snacks, and wifi. I didn't love the fact that towels were $2 each, but that's the only complaint!
