The blacksmith arms is laid back and friendly , the bed was comfortable and the ensuite had a bath ( yippee ) Jazz was friendly , and I am sad I didn’t get to eat there or have a shot of his great rum selection ( I was attending a wedding ) parking is available , although I used public transport and understand there is a lovely walk into Lewes town along the river . BSA delivered just what was needed xx

Absolutely Fabulous!

Really great stay during a short walking trip to the South Downs. Lovely, comfortable room and en-suite bathroom, and the evening meal was absolutely fabulous! Big portions, tasty, and the Caribbean cuisine is exceptional. Great breakfast, as well, and lovely, friendly hosts. We’ll definitely be back.
