A truly beautiful historic venue that offered us tremendous comfort for a good price. The grounds were so peaceful and even though we were only there for 1 night, we both felt refreshed as we left. There’d be no hesitation from either of us if an opportunity to travel to the same area and stay again came up.

Wonderful grounds - short or long walks. Gardens overflowing with beautiful flowers; huge and varied trees, meadows, running water, altogether a dream. And inside so many fascinating things from ancient armour and tapestries to animal heads and Salvador Dali art. Glorious

Room was good.Clean and roomy.plenty of tea and coffee. There was only one small bar of soap and no body wash or shampoo. The hotel and food were good but was let down by the WiFi,television and cleansing cosmetic issues. I would stay there again.

What a fabulous house and grounds! Fascinating history!

What a fabulous house and grounds! Fascinating history! Service was excellent - food was very good. Wonderful to be able to listen to the musical performance. Marvellous to sleep with an open window. The room was good but only one pillow. No tea/coffee facilities in the room. Unable/ difficulties in climbing into the bath to have a shower. The sides of the bath were too high. This is my responsibilty as I should have thought about this when I made the booking!

This is an awesome place to get away from it all.

This is an awesome place to get away from it all. It’s an art college with hotel rooms. The pluses were that it has a great relaxing vibe, no TV in the room, a beautiful landscape, great staff, and it’s a lovely building. If you lock your phone away you really can get away from it all. The minuses were (in our room - can’t talk for the other rooms) a pitiful shower, a double bed (who has double beds any more), the set meal times have limited food choices, and you can’t nip out for supplies because you’re 20 minutes in the car from anywhere. But we plan to come back and unplug for a week!

Its a beautiful house in magnificent grounds.

Its a beautiful house in magnificent grounds. There's a buzz of creative activity about West Dean which is what will entice me back to attend one of their many courses. We ate in the local pub, as we only stayed one night: a very pleasant but not too long a walk away. Look out for the peacock on the roof of a house in the village, he'll certainly make his presence felt. Our room was lovely, the bed extremely comfortable, all our needs anticipated with a hair dryer, iron etc, and the ensuite bathroom very luxurious. I couldn't have wished for more. Take sturdy shoes as the grounds are extensive and worth a look.

West Dean College is in a beautiful location with spectacular views. The gardens are amazing and truly worth a wander around. The main college building has various items on display and details the history of the college, which was informative and interesting. The rooms are clean and basic but very comfortable. We enjoyed a little tipple in the bar after a long walk around the property and gardens before heading out to supper nearby. Breakfast was varied. An enjoyable stay.

As a retired academic I was immediately comfortable both with the surroundings and the facilities provided. The price compared favourably with local hotels and the staff were very helpful. A most interesting building with some fascinating artefacts set in a beautiful location.
