The Pilot Inn

Beautiful pub, room was perfect and tastefully decorated. The bed was very comfortable. Staff were very happy and the dinner/breakfast was outstanding.

The pillows were not very good. Pretty lumpy but we managed to sleep without them.

The friendly staff

Nothing

The property was very close to the South Down Way which took you out of Eastbourne and onto the walk along the cliffs past Beachy Head and onto Burlington Gap which was one of the reasons why we booked. The staff were attentive and friendly, the room with en suite clean and cosy and the evening meal and cooked breakfast was very good. It was also popular with the locals which gave it a warm atmosphere.

Nothing to dislike.

Friendliness of staff!! The decor, seating layout, lots of natural light.

I didn't like the flies around eating, on both days. Even at night, near closing. Ventilation in the restaurant seating area becomes rather stuffy and overly warm. My mate got a lot more pork bites than me, the food quality and portions sizes vary quite dramatically. Thursday's supper was splendid, Friday 3pm meal was a disappointment and questions were asked, (why do we eat there all the time). It is in a good location.. Also what I do not like is, when tipping on the final bill, ie 25% it doesn't show on the printed bill. So when you get a bank alert on your phone, the added tip isn't included, and you begin freaking out that you've been scammed somehow..
