Loved the towels and bedding and chill pub atmosphere and delish Jamaican dishes. Thought it would be a bit more walkable to Lewes and could be a bit noisy with traffic at night! I would advise earplugs. Great spot if you’re comfortable with a chill and casual vibe and are not expecting hotel like treatment

Amazing food and alcohol selection. Some of the best Jamaican food I have had in ages! There are more tame options but well worth trying the homemade food as it's clear they put the effort in

All good and excellent for a 1 night stay following a local wedding reception. Breakfast was very good although I would have preferred a 9 - 10 breakfast on a Sunday morning rather than an 8 - 9

Stated pets allowed throughout property so booked a room - however pets not allowed in rooms and suggested they sleep in the car. Could not stay and refused to refund room and were quite rude and disinterested- said to staff to ignore us, it was policy and nothing they could do. Wouldn’t refund even though room had only been booked about 4 hours previously. Terrible service in todays climate

A really nice overnight stay at The Blacksmiths Arms. We received a friendly welcome and was shown to our room. Bed was really comfortable and the bathroom was lovely and clean with the whitest fluffiest towels! Breakfast was amazing! Would definitely recommend!

This place was a great find—a true gem. The rooms were beautiful, clean, and quiet. The food was delicious, featuring a Jamaican-inspired menu crafted by the wonderful hosts, Jazz and Drixie, who went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The rum punch was delightful, and the breakfast included one of the best English breakfasts we've ever tasted. It's definitely worth a visit, if not for an overnight stay, then at least to dine at the restaurant. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, making the experience even more memorable.
