    Nothing, I honestly can’t think of anything else that could be improved at the Badgers Inn

    We had an excellent breakfast cooked freshly each morning, the host was so lovely and accommodating asking us what we wanted, a fresh pot of tea and orange juice was given to us every morning plus toast with jam and marmalade ready for use on the table, couldn’t fault anything. Thank you so much for a lovely three day break

    Wifi signal strength in room got a bit weak in the late evening, but I used my phone as a tether so no real problem. It was fine the next day.

    Nicely-decorated and well-appointed room, with lots of facilities (Nespresso machine, fridge with fresh milk, orange juice, bottled water). Superb breakfast.

    Nothing to dislike

    The location was ideal for us, as we were attending a wedding nearby. The rooms we had were great; comfortable and well furnished, with tea/coffee making facilities. The staff were lovely and very welcoming. We were advised that getting a local taxi might be difficult, and the young lady who greeted us even offered to pick us up after the wedding reception if had any trouble getting back. Lovely garden, although we couldn't make the most of it as we weren't there for long enough. Breakfast was one of the best we have enjoyed during a stay.

    The whole ambience was relaxed and friendly making the Badgers a proper country gastro pub. The breakfast and dinner were excellent and I especially liked the way the cooking was done to meet our needs - one of us is vegetarian. The accommodation was full of character and rustically rural with some nice finishing touches.

    The gate for access after hours did not want to open with the keys but it was not of any consequence as the place stayed open late. Some fresh fruit would make a good addition to the breakfast.

    Jules and her team were most welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. A table for dinner was reserved for us and the menu was explained to us in the light of being vegetarian. The food was very tasty and the breakfast was very plentiful. Leaflets were provided describing local attractions.

    The whole team went over and above their duties to put on a wonderful Charity quiz night for the Bob Champion Cancer Trust. A delicious BBQ and service with a smile. 3 of us stayed over and had to get up early to continue our charity South Downs Way ride and the chef came in early to make us a delicious breakfast. It's a lovely pub in a great location. All staff are friendly clean tidy and very efficient at their jobs. Looking forward to going back for another meal or 5!

    On a very busy A road which although there was good access on foot via rights of way from Tillington and Petworth it made the actual access to the Badgers itself and to the very good little stores to the south slightly tricky. Rather expensive for solo traveller as no single room options.

    Very spacious room, exceptionally good service from all staff, and delicious and plentiful food, both at breakfast and evening meal available in public house. A handy little local stores a short walk away for provisions. An infrequent bus service also seems to run past pub though I did not test this out.

    No AC as expected but maybe a fan would be good. The TV was super small. With TV prices so cheap now, very surprised that they didn’t have a bigger TV. Service was a little slow for dinner and not too attentive. Wanted to get a dessert and no one came back to check on us. Decided to leave instead. Maybe a little more attention to customers and it’d be a great little place to stay.

    Great old world charm and friendly staff. I did have dinner one night and the food was good. It was pretty busy and the service wasn’t the best. Nice place though and clearly a busy place to stay

    If I have to critique it would be that the room and bathroom sloped downwards slightly as the building is old but it was really part of its charm.

    Lovely spacious room and bathroom. The decor just worked! It has a certain charm I can’t put my finger on but was comforting. Friendly staff. Good breakfast.

    The floor in bathroom slopes slightly, but what you would expect from an old building and it added to the character of the place.

    Felt welcome from the moment we walked in. Very accommodating and relaxed about breakfast time and checking out. Beautiful country pub with lovely courtyard garden to sit and have breakfast.

    Very good cooked breakfast. An option for a more continental style breakfast - eg some fruit and yoghurt- would have been welcome. Staff were lovely. Very comfortable room with all facilities.
