The welcome made me feel right at home, after a long day on the road, tea and cake overlooking the stunning garden was a real treat. The room was comfortable, elegantly decorated, well presented and very clean and tidy with lovely attention to detail and overlooking the garden.
Wendy as a hostess is delightful, friendly, personable I can truly see how they have the classification achieved.
Very pleasant stay, will certainly be going back when I have the opportunity and will recommend to friends and family.
The only disappointment is that I hadn't booked for 2 nights!

“Beautiful Bed and Breakfast”

Ocklynge Manor

24 Mar 2008

We have just spent two nights at the beautiful Ocklynge Manor. The owners, Wendy and David, were exceptionally kind and welcoming. Their dedication to guest comfort was paramount. The Manor itself is absolutely immaculate and furnished with stunning antique furniture. From the moment you enter, you will be made to feel like you are part of the family. Our 5 year old son was delighted when he was caringly given a hot water bottle, as we had just returned from a brisk walk down the seafront! Wendy prepares beautiful breakfasts and her cakes are, simply, to die for. David is equally talented in keeping the house looking spic and span. Our room was very spacious, beautifully decorated and furnished and we can't wait to go back.

If you arrive late afternoon, the first thing you'll notice is the wonderful smell of bread baking. Then hostess Wendy Dugdill brings you tea and cake (silver pot) to a sunny upstairs nook where long windows overlook the beautiful old trees and spring flowers of her lovely walled garden. This is just one of the extra special treats of this wonderful B&B. Wendy and David have thought of all your needs, including robes and slippers in the room which doesn't have an ensuite bathroom, just in case you've forgotten your own.

Everything seems new and fresh and shiny clean. What is also rare is to find space on tables to put things! Pretty decorations abound, but are always tasteful and never overdone.

White linen on the very comfortable beds, big fluffy towels, a fabulous breakfast of scrambled eggs and smoked salmon with Wendy's homemade toast and jams - we were in heaven!

Warmth just radiates from owners Wendy and David Dugdill. We would recommend them and their manor to anyone.

A great getaway weekend from London, staying in this stunning bed and breakfast. Beautiful room, very spacious and all amenities including a fridge! Lovely couple, very relaxed and very welcoming. Delicious breakfasts, with homemade bread and jams galore...even homemade yummy cake for tea! Highly recommended!

“Everything I could think of and more...”

Ocklynge Manor

24 Feb 2008

A lovely B&B with absolutely everything i could have thought of and more! Run by a lovely couple who are extremely friendly and welcoming. A beautiful building with an amazing garden, all with a lot of history and relevant artefacts around the house. The owners made us feel at home and exceeded expectations with service. The property is immaculately kept and I would recommend staying here to anyone.
Breakfast is amazing with a huge range of tastes provided for. Good location, a 5-10 min walk to town and another 5-10 mins to the Eastbourne beach.
Off street parking is safe and secure, I also felt very safe in the hands of the owners. An unbeatable experience!
An extremely attractive place to stay for an equally attractive price! Worth every penny!!!
