Beautiful location, lovely breakfast

Beautiful location, fantastic breakfast and the room we were eventually moved to was very nice. Pleasant downstairs lounge area. We did a lovely walk around the vineyard which has beautiful views over the Downs.

Lovely peaceful vineyard accomodation.

Sympathetically restored barn accomodation in beautiful setting near Alfriston. The room was small but comfortable, but it would have been tight for more than one person. Loved the courtyard garden with some of my favourite plants. The resident’s lounge was also very stylish. Very tasty and plentiful breakfast. Staff really helpful.

Nice stay, good wine, quiet

The location was quite remote, fine if you are driving less so when walking like I was. Breakfast was great, as was the evening meal. Room was a little small, OK for me travelling alone but would have been a squeeze for 2 people.

Lovely stay on a beautiful vineyard

The accommodation is nestled in the Rathfinny wine estate. It has great views and the building looks very well kept. The breakfast was excellent and able to accommodate allergies. The staff were very attentive. The bed was super comfy too. If you have a chance, I would recommend tasting the wine from the shop cellar. There's no need to book the tour (unless you want to see more of the wine making facilities), and they didn't charge us for the tasting. We did buy a bottle of sparkling wine, but there was no pressure to buy. There are also walks you can do around the estate.

I absolutely loved it! It's such a peaceful place to stay and unwind.

I stayed at The Flint Barns B&B for 1 night whilst I was travelling. I absolutely loved it! It's such a peaceful place to stay and unwind. There's some lovely walks to go on around the Rathfinny wine estate. My room was very cozy and the breakfast was delicious! Really enjoyed my stay and I will be back.

Pleasant one night visit for a solo traveler. I would have been deeply disappointed if my wife had accompanied me.

Great location, beautiful buildings

Beautiful location in the middle of the vineyard, so tranquil. Super cosy room, dinner and breakfast both excellent. Staff were wonderful throughout, at the barns and very knowledgeable for the wine tour and tasting. Will be back!

My single bed room was small, but excellently appointed. Very comfortable with all hotel facilities packed into the small space. A real coffee machine, tea matching facilities with fresh milk and modern shower. The spaceous lounge was furnished with comfortable armchairs and setees with pleasant aspects to the vineyard. The quality of food and presentation, both evening meal and breakfast was the best I've seen in an English country hotel and not bettered since I visited that home of French gastronomy, Toulouse. Prices reasonable considering the quality of the food. Am planning my next visit to include a tour of the winery.
