Tu alojamiento en West Firle

Busy pub, limited menu, good access on foot to town centre, a large pay and display parking lot over the road, also on-street parking (difficult). Parking lot has disabled places, with other spaces charged on a pay and display basis. We had contacted The Dorset for advice regarding parking, specifically the availability of nearby blue badge permit parking. We received one line that 'the last time they looked there was parking'. Rooms are upstairs, our room as far away as possible, off a small dark hall. Motion-triggered lighting, albeit delayed, in other hall and corridors. I am surprised Health & Safety did not require a stair handrail to be fitted to stairs en route. Our room was small but adequate, a low, small double bed being the only place to sit. The furniture, of inferior quality, not durable, the rail inside the wardrobe, with a motley array of coat-hangers, detaches very easily. One low-wattage bulb in a low and small lamp on the cabinet on the far side of the bed. Tea/coffee was provided, also biscuits. bottled water and a kettle (not empty). The Lazza coffee maker is slightly incongruous, taking up, along with the small tv, most of a small desk. We put the machine underneath. Our view was an adjacent part of the building. The curtains, one of which was inside out, were kept closed by securing the bottom window on the hem.Heating was inadequate, the windows and the door both need insulation. Bathroom has all basics but no towel rail.Hand towels and bath mat, had to be draped on a small radiator by the w.c. Bath towels were not replaced, nowhere to hang or dry them. The basin was big and deep. It would be useful to have a plug. There was no plug at all, merely a hole into the unknown. The shower worked adequately, despite the broken hose. Drain was blocked, water drained extremely slowly, flood threatened. Hook was missing from bathroom door. Upon arrival, we said we would be eating in the pub that evening but we went downstairs at 7pm to be told the kitchen was closed for a private party. Self-service continental breakfast was adequate - choice of cereal, croissants, blueberry muffins, jam, various teas, orange juice, yoghurts, fruit (pear, clementine, one apple). We were the first down and the random, inadequate supply of cutlery (two cereal spoons, one knife,16 large forks and teaspoons), was unwelcoming, as was an almost empty milk jug. We were greeted pleasantly but immediately asked if we wanted toast. Very nice toasted bread it was, too but should be offered during the cereal course. Pats of butter supplied with the toast were enough, just, for the toast but none for either a croissant or a muffin. No offers of more toast. Choice of jams was limited, most being packets of blackcurrant or raspberry, two packets of marmite, several of strawberry and two packets of thin-shred marmalade. That was morning 1. Morning 2, the choice was diminished by the previous day's consumption so no marmalade at all. Had we been staying longer, by day 4 we would have been down to a couple of packets of blackcurrant jam only. Our second morning was Saturday. The notice in our room said weekend breakfast was served 8.30-10.00; we marked time in our room, at the appointed hour going down, to be told that the room notice was incorrect, should have been replaced a couple of weeks ago, with breakfast 9.00-10.00. The breakfast girl was pleasantly apologetic, if off-hand, and eventually, breakfast was put out. This hotel is badly let down by its lack of attention to detail. It is clean, safe, the staff pleasant, but off-hand, not customer-oriented, room guests feel unwelcome. The rooms are all above the public areas, noisy during opening times but quiet when bar is closed. Our stay was okay but the lack of attention to detail/maintenance was irritating, distracting from what was to have been a relaxed visit. If there was a viable alternative, we would not stay there again..

Visited as we stayed at this hotel often and wanted to see it post the upgrade. It’s beautifully done - very sympathetic to show the hotels age. Stayed in a snug room. It is that … snug. I had an awful night sleep as the double bed was so small and high! The ambience in room, the little sweets and music were lovely. The shower was fab. Stand out for me was the staff, everyone lovely and friendly. Had drinks in the bar - 2-1 cocktails made me happy, the espresso martini was lovely. Had breakfast, the latte was really nice but felt that, not short of £50 was expensive for a served very cold breakfast. Will stay again

The Wellington at Seaford is one of the friendliest, most welcoming places we have stayed and is amazing value for money. The owners, Simon and Nina, are a lovely couple and have clearly put heart and soul (and money!) into upgrading the facilities since they took ownership, which I gather unfortunately coincided with the outbreak of Covid. The welcome on arrival could not have been warmer and we were shown to our room by Nina, one of the owners. The spacious room was immaculately clean and the bed was super comfortable and mercifully squeak-free, in both respects unlike the P**mier Inn at Newhaven where we made the mistake of staying on the inward leg of our trip to the UK from France. Our room, just like the entire inn, has been newly double glazed with stylish sash windows, so there was virtually no noise at all from what light traffic that passed by outside and we enjoyed our first night of unbroken sleep in several days. The room was equipped with a large TV (Freeview), tea and coffee facilities and WiFi. Downstairs the pub and restaurant are equally welcoming and cosy, and after a very pleasant, bracing walk along the seafront (the promenade is just a couple of minutes down the road from The Wellington) we ate an early evening meal which was prepared by Simon, Nina's husband. The menu was excellent, with something for all tastes and plenty of vegetarian options, though we plumped for real sausage and mash! A properly tasty, delicious treat, washed down with a chilled bottle of Pinot Grigio and followed by a scrumptious chocolate fudge cake. We had breakfast in the restaurant next morning - full English for him and continental for her - which was prepared and served by Simon. This was without a doubt the best English breakfast I can ever remember, and it knocked the offering that we previously had at the Newhaven inn into a cocked hat; it was not some tepid, serve yourself buffet, but the real deal, generous and freshly prepared to order. And it costs less, too! There is free on-street parking outside the Wellington - arriving late afternoon on the Tuesday we were able to park just a few yards from the main entrance. After breakfast on Wednesday we packed our bags, made our farewells and had a short, ten-minute drive to Newhaven ferry terminal for our crossing back home to France. In short, we thoroughly recommend The Wellington to anyone staying in the area, whether for a stay or for a meal. If they'll have us, we'll definitely book again if we use the same ferry crossing in future.
