This is a fabulous place to stay...we couldn't fault it in any way. So, for anyone who may be put off by the idiotic negative points on here...IGNORE THEM...they are completely wrong. All we can say, is perhaps they are the ones who are at fault with their attitudes to what is a very lovely place with excellent hosts. Thank... More

We have just enjoyed our third visit to Cleavers Lyng with our border collie and, as on the previous occasions, we experienced wonderful hospitality in beautiful surroundings. We and our dog have always been made to feel very welcome and without a doubt this is the best place we have ever stayed in. The rooms are luxurious, spotlessly clean, with... More

My cousin got married at Herstmonceux Castle and being a proscrastinator, I stupidly left booking a room for the night until the very last minute. After scouring all of the better known hotel websites and only finding expensive rooms in Eastbourne, I tried a google search and low and behold, up popped Cleavers Lyng. Initially I was looking for something... More

We had read lots of reviews on this site before we had booked, and we had high expectations. Cleavers Lyng is an ideal location. We had booked the Sunny Room, this was a small room, with barely enough space to walk around the bottom of the bed, the ensuite door was a louvre wardrobe type, not really suitable as a... More

Sally greeted us and our dog, Bella, at the door, where she welcomed us and showed us to our room. The house was wonderful, bedroom extremely clean and comfortable with en-suite and small sofa. The hospitality tray was stocked to the brim! When we returned from our meal in the village we sat on a sofa by an open log... More

You know when you stay somewhere and it just seems as if it just very inconvenient to the owner that your there? This is one of those places. Admittedly we were stuck in traffic getting there on the Friday night so we didn't arrive until 10pm, but the voicemail and arrival greeting was almost, but not quite rude. Couple that... More

From the moment we arrived, Sally and Doug did everything they could to make our stay idyllic. Not only were we made welcome, but they volunteered to babysit our exuberant Shih Tzu, while we were out; and they included him in long walks through the fields. We enjoyed four days of perfect peace. He enjoyed 4 days of Dog Heaven.... More

If you are looking for a place in which to relax in peaceful and picturesque surroundings this is the perfect location. The house and gardens are lovely, the breakfats very good, the rooms clean and confortable and the service excellent.

Very difficult to find fault. Wonderful location, charming house with nice views and great breakfasts. Lots of little extra touches which are not always found in similar places. I suppose the only slight disappointment in the context of the price charged (not the cheapest) was that the room was a little cramped. However it was clean and had everything you... More

Delightful house in a beautiful country setting - but a little tricky to find if you use a sat nav, so best use the directions given on the website! Our room (Balcony room) was extremely comfortable, with every possible amenity provided (even a large bottle of mineral water). Very dog friendly - our two loved playing in the large very... More
