The Welldiggers Arms

Came here for lunch and was not disappointed, food was amazing and staff were so friendly! We will most definitely be back, highly recommend the welldiggers arms!

We didn’t stay because the menu had 1 or the 2 vegetarian options off the menu and really limited vegetarian offering anyway. Real shame because we love the location and it used to be really great

Great pub great beer great food great service great location great atmosphere great price that’s a 7 out of 7 from us! Definitely planning our next visit very soon. Thank you to everyone in the team that makes the Welldiggers Arms so ‘great’

Easy to find on web, booking simple and acknowledged and confirms coming, reception good, location wonderful really great meal, lovely tasty and visually attractive, all four of us enjoyed and interesting sources noted on menu. Good memorable value for money, Sunday full.....Am others coming back

Great atmosphere and view. I loved the variety of food on the menu, although even more veggie options would be great. Waitress was very knowledgeable and friendly. I thought it was odd you only had full fat milk available for coffee, semi skimmed is usually available in places but not here. I thought the rooms outside looked very well positioned and I’d love to stay in one of them one day.

Everything in this pub/ restaurant is fine. The food was average nothing special but nothing to complain about. The venue is superb amazing views over the South Downs from the big airy dining room. But certainly nothing to go back for. The fact that the place was 75% empty on a lovely sat lunch time probably tells you all you need to know. Worst bit was £13 for a very very modest cheese board with 3 small pieces of average cheese.

My cousin and I (and my cousin’s dog) has a great couple of nights stay here. We arrived late Sunday afternoon and tucked into a delicious roast! The room was perfect with a wonderful patio with views across the fields. The breakfast was top notch with a full vegan option for my cousin. We also enjoyed a couple of drinks in the garden and dinner the following evening. Ellie and her team could not have been more accommodating and welcoming.

Room was small but very comfy and the view was incredible. Full English breakfast in the morning was excellent. And their beer selection is excellent. However, we were very let down by dinner. In hindsight, we probably should have booked dinner somewhere else. My steak wasn't cooked the best, and the advertised chunky chips appeared to be frozen fries. I persevered through mine (it was edible), but my wife sent her fish tacos back (something she never does): they were chewy and minimal. So as a place to stay, I can highly recommend. As a place to stop and eat, not so much.

We had my Mums wake at the Welldiggers yesterday. Barry and his team were so wonderful and made the whole experience much easier for us. It was a difficult afternoon, and one I was dreading, but Barry made it all run smoothly and nothing was too much bother. The Welldiggers made us feel so welcome. My Mum loved this pub, and I know she would have been so pleased that we chose the Welldiggers to celebrate her life with friends and family. Thank you to everyone at the Welldiggers. We will always remember yesterday and we won’t forget how kind you all were. Love the Careswell’s xxxxxx
