    Great location no road noise. Perfect for Wakehurst, Borde Hall and other garden visits. Lisa is very welcoming and her brownies are delicious and the coffee fresh.

    On arrival we were greeted by the lovely host, and owner of Chestnut Cottage. Lis and Jay are super welcoming and friendly. We had booked 2 rooms, Chestnut (large double with en-suite shower) and Bluebell (romantic, with en-suite with free standing bath) Both rooms are gorgeous! Stylish and full of character with quality linens and furnishings, spotlessly clean and with beautiful touches like homemade brownies. A good selection of teas, coffee, cold water and even juices/cordials are supplied. Beds were super comfortable, en-suite in Chestnut is small but perfectly formed with a good power shower. This period property is a family home with the lovely hosts, family and two calm and friendly dogs living on site, it felt super calm and relaxing and still very private. We were off to an evening wedding reception at Highley Manor, and Lis kindly arranged a return taxi for us (far cheaper than we had been quoted) We would highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting Ardingly. Lovely pub The Gardeners Arm, just up the road was great for lunch and super welcoming. We also popped into the pub opposite, Ardingly Inn, for a quick drink, friendly and pleasant atmosphere with locals. We had a lovely chat with our hosts before we left and loved hearing about their journey to become guesthouse hosts and the renovations and work on this beautiful cottage. Book it! It’s a great place to stay with lovely friendly people, you won’t regret it and it’s phenomenal value. Thank you, we will be sure to return when we are next down your way!
