    Everything was great.

    Lovely big, comfortable room with a huge, deep bath and really comfy bed. Coffee machine a lovely bonus, and loads of tv channels. The pub is great and the landlord was so friendly and helpful, without being intrusive. Plenty of delicious vegan food (including enormous, imaginative breakfasts which kept me going all day! Gorgeous location too.

    Can't find a fault with this magnificent establishment.

    From start to finish our stay at the Star and Garter was outstanding. Our room was spacious, immaculately clean and well equipped. The highlight for 0A (long haired Commanding Officer) was the huge bath. On arrival we were greeted by Harry; a courteous and helpful chap. The pub's garden area is sublime; plenty of tables for all. My lady was impressed with dinner and breakfast.....this is my fav meal of the day and I make the most of it; at the Star it is truly a well prepared feast. Both meals were delivered in in a timely manner and well presented. Whilst I didn't get the chance to say hello to Jim the Landlord, his informative email briefings on what was on tap were very helpful; for me the Star ale was delicious.

    A very small point but there was no bracket for the shower in our bathroom (although we understand the other rooms don’t have that issue).

    Jim and June are incredibly friendly and helpful, driving is up to Upwaltham Barns for an anniversary event and organising a taxi for us.

    Being a beautiful older building you can hear the creaks of the floorboards and sounds from the neighbouring rooms. Luckily we had a lovely considerate couple next door.

    Absolutely friendly and gracious staff. Generous and delicious food and spacious rooms with little extras such as a nespressi machine and bottles of sparkling and still water. We definitely recommend the Stsr and aGarter if you exploring the area around East Dean or want to drop in for a meal.

    Great location for walking on the South Downs. Our room was spotlessly clean and had everything that we needed. Very comfortable bed and quiet location. The breakfast was delicious and all great quality ingredients mainly locally sourced. Dinner was great too! Very friendly and welcoming hosts, can highly recommend!

    The one and only thing we would fault was that we had requested early access to our room in order that we could get ready for the wedding we were attending, and regrettably the room wasn’t ready for us.

    The location was a short distance away from the wedding we were attending at Upwaltham Barns, and our hostess, Julie, very kindly gave us a lift there to save us finding a taxi (which we hadn’t booked!). Both Jim and Julie were very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast the next morning was superb.
