De locatie is echt fantastisch om te wandelen en de Seven Sisters te bezoeken. Ik had per ongeluk een kamer met 2 eenpersoonsbedden geboekt, maar dat kon zonder problemen omgezet worden naar een kamer met een tweepersoonsbed. Het hotel heeft een heerlijk ontbijt en goede koffie. Het is ook heel hond vriendelijk. Het is een heel charmant oud gebouw.
Het matras was een beetje doorgelegen. Wij hebben het erg warm gehad. Er stond wel een ventilator, maar die maakte heel veel geluid.
Todo me gustó: la ubicación, el desayuno, la habitación, el personal..
No encuentro nada que no me gustara
Leuke locatie in oude farmhouse
Prachtige locatie aan de rand van Cuckmere Haven en Seven Sisters, goede service, uitstekend ontbijt, vriendelijk personeel.
Außergewöhnlich gut. Individuell und wunderschön. Unglaublicher Charme des alten Gebäudes, der Suite, des Gartens, HonestyBar und Frühstücksraum. Der Service ist extrem herzlich, sehr gut und menschlich sehr angenehm. Wen man in der Gegend ist, sind eine oder mehrere Nächte Pflicht. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder und genießen den exklusiven Service, ein schönes Ambiente, sehr leckeres Frühstück, saubere Badezimmer und extrem gemütliche Betten. Vielen Dank an das tolle Team.
Alles top!!!
Schitterend middenin het natuurgebied van de Seven Sisters!
Wel wat afgelegen en geen restaurants op loopafstand.
Charming and lovely staff who made it a very personal stay. Super breakfast
Rooms were a bit hot due to weather but they did have a fan which helped
Alle sind sehr freundlich und gingen auf unsere Wünsche ein. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut. Die Lage der Lodge ist perfekt zu den Seven Sisters.
EVERYTHING! The warmest welcome, the delicious food, the perfect location! Such a pleasant atmosphere, the (à la carte) breakfast is really fresher than fresh. Everyone at Saltmarsh Farmhouse goes the extra mile(s) tt make you feel as comfortable as possible, we couldn’t have asked for more! The location is perfect for exploring the Seven Sisters!
Nothing! Everything was just excellent!
We felt special from the moment we arrived. Everyone looked after us and was kind and helpful. The staff were always smiling and friendly and it was a delightful place to spend a few days.

Varmt när vi var där så vi ville och behövde ha öppna fönster, men det kunde man inte då det var väldigt mycket myggor. Saknades myggnät till fönstren.
The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful

Location and polite staff
No TV at property
Je zit aan de rand van een nationaal park. overdag volop levendigheid maar naar 17 uur een oase van rust. Ontbijt was prima verzorgd en een zeer gastvrije en vriendelijke eigenaresse.
We got lost finding the place and the owner came out and found us. Excellent service. They need to improve their address definition on their site.
Totally charming, well kept, and on an unbelievable site. It is 1500s beams and beautiful buildings and comfy beds mixed with a gorgeous site and delicious food.

Saltmarsh Farmhouse was an absolute gem and the perfect place to recharge during my solo late birthday celebration. I loved everything about my stay…the cozy room, the beautiful gardens, the peaceful view of the garden, and the delicious breakfast each morning. The location could not be better, especially being so close to Seven Sisters Country Park. It made it easy to enjoy the most beautiful walks and fully take in the surrounding landscape. The whole stay felt calm, restorative, and special. I left feeling refreshed and grateful to have found such a lovely place. Saltmarsh Farmhouse is truly a hidden treasure, and I would absolutely love to return.
Perfect location, friendly & efficient staff.
Very friendly staff, clean tidy and comfortable. The location was perfect for what we wanted directly onto the South Downs Way
Was really pleased that we booked ourselves into the Saltmarsh Farmhouse. It's location for the Seven Sisters is spot on. As for the property, our room was clean, spacious and with comfortable beds and a super hot rain shower. Special mention to Emma and Olivia who looked after us. Who thought of the honesty bar has got to have a pat on the back 🤩 look forward to coming back soon

The property is set in a fantastic location right in the Seven Sisters Country Park. Its surrounding gardens are beautiful and there are plenty of places to sit and enjoy food and drink or just read a book. Sunday lunch and breakfasts were so good. Finally, Emma and all of the staff were so so attentive and made us feel really at home.
Not so much a dislike but as it is a period property you can hear noise from other guests and creaking floorboards when you are trying not to make any noise!
Fabulous location (for walking the Seven Sisters), super friendly staff and wonderful breakfast. The room was well appointed and the outdoor area is also really lovely.
The blind in the room didn’t seem to work so we were woken pretty early and didn’t have much privacy (given our room overlooked the garden). There are no staff onsite overnight and we didn’t really want to have to call someone out to come and look at this. The bar/lounge area wasn’t the most welcoming area so we didn’t really have anywhere we felt comfortable hanging out (still a bit too cold to sit outdoors for long).
Perfect location for Seven Sisters country park
Sehr zuvorkommendes Personal, sehr familienfreundlich. Gemütliche Zimmer mit frischen Blumen. Alle Räumlichkeiten sind mit viel Liebe zum Detail gestaltet. Wunderbares, frisch zubereitetes Frühstück. Schöne Gartenanlage. Gratis Parkplatz neben dem Hotel. Nahe zu den Seven Sisters. Gastgeberin nahm sich für Tipps viel Zeit.
Eine stark befahrene Strasse läuft rund um das Hotel/das Visitor Center der Seven Sisters. Bei geschlossenem Fenster jedoch nicht störend. Wenig Auswahl für Abendessen in der Nähe, vor allem für Vegetarier und Veganer.
Beautiful location and room, the staff were lovely and attentive, and Emma and Paul were wonderful hosts. We felt comfortable, happy, warm and welcome from the moment we arrived. We would love to come back and we will certainly be reccomending Saltmarsh to friends and family.
Truly, there was nothing we would change about our stay.
We enjoyed every aspect of our stay. Someone on the staff greeted us and showed us around and gave us tips for the following day. The grounds and lodgings were beautiful. The farm is adjacent to the Seven Sisters park and made hiking very convenient. The room was very comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

The staff were very considerate and helpful.
There was a serious mosquito problem. We counted between 15 and 20 through the night. The gauze curtains we were told would keep out mosquitos were inadequate and had a gap at bottom. We suffered a number of bites. The farmhouse is on a very busy road and the area was incredibly busy - over busy for the facilities. For the price, we expected a more spacious and better furnished room. It was cramped and tea/coffee placed under a rack for clothes. No rack for toiletries in the shower. In the light of our experience - which may in part be due to special circumstances facing the property - we think that compensation would be appropriate.
Thanks to its prime location near the visitor center and stunning sights, as well as the exceptional hospitality from the lovely staff, especially the kind and considerate Emma.
A bit busy with many travelers eager to visit.
Breakfast was excellent - good choice, delicious and generous. The room was lovely - soft bed linen, comfortable beds, tea and coffee making etc with a lounge to use downstairs. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Perfect.
Lovely hotel, excellent food, very welcoming staff

Всё! Чудесная Эмма встретила нас поздно вечером, несмотря на то, что чекин закончился. Помогла нам найти место для ужина и даже проводила до ресторана! Чудесный коттедж, уютный и теплый, чувствовали себя как дома! Камин по вечерам и бокал отличного вина - прекрасно когда на улице холодно и ветренно и темнеет рано! Отличные завтраки, приветливый персонал! Обязательно приедем еще!
Все было отлично!
Warm and welcoming. All the staff are friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Our dog was welcomed too.
Absolutely nothing.
Breakfast was amazing and service was exceptional. They took the time to work around us as my partner was unwell. Staff Could not do enough ! Bed and room was Very comfortable. Will visit again soon.
The comfort and clearness of the venue were excellent.

lovely staff, excellent breakfast, brilliant location
was hoping food available in evenings
We booked for my wife’s birthday and weren’t disappointed. The hotel was perfectly located for our hiking trip, and the bus stop opposite was really handy for getting into Brighton. All the staff were super friendly and helpful, and they even put together a little last-minute birthday surprise for my wife. Our room was really comfy, nicely decorated and clean, with a lovely view over the garden. Breakfast was excellent and we also really enjoyed the Sunday roast. Would definitely come back. Cheers
Nothing, it’s great!
The whole team led by Emma was absolutely adorable and so helpful throughout our stay. They were so very friendly with our old dog, providing treats and toys and the enclosed yard was a blessing. Amazing location so close to the cliffs with many wonderful walks right out the B&B. Breakfast and festive lunch were delicious as well.
I had my own Christmas tree tastefully decorated room for Christmas. The breakfast was delicious and bed and linen etc very clean and comfortable. All staff very friendly. Gated parking
The only reason I marked down was the gin evening which I believe finished around 10.30pm was going on downstairs and I’d intended an early night. 10.30 isn’t late therefore only a slight mark down. (I was invited) therefore could have gained a point had I been in the mood.
Extremely comfy beds, great breakfast and very accommodating to dietary requirements
Would have like the option of getting an evening meal and then you could enjoy the lounge area
Absolutely beautiful stay at the farmhouse. Such a sweet place. Team there lovely and incredibly accommodating, even with our late check in after we got excited and went straight to the pub. Interiors beautiful. Excellent location to head straight onto the trails.
Perfect location , comfortable clean room and kind stuff! Breakfast was delicious!!
Sometime you have some noise from the cafe downstairs
Amazing house and gardens near path to the sea

Staff were so friendly, the space and honesty bar and being able to light a fire was cool
No option for an evening meal, however found East Dean and a fab pub just a 5 minute drive away
Owner kindly picked us up from a late port arrival
Friendly team, delicious breakfast, beautiful room, super attention to our beagle and loved the honesty bar and residents only lounge.

The location is great for walking. The bed was comfortable. The team were fabulously friendly. The breakfast was nice.
Our room (in the eaves) is above the kitchen. It was very noisy for most of the day into late evening with kitchen prep and noise. Also, the room was so hot even with the radiator off and a small window open. It constantly smelt of food. The food was nice but not the constant smell of cooking. We wanted a relaxing night away but due to an event being hosted - it was the complete opposite. We felt that the room shouldn’t have been offered given the noise from the kitchen and guests of the event. A really disappointing experience and complete waste of money - not at all the experience that was sold.
Stunning location. Very comfortable and stylish room in a beautifully restored farmhouse. Friendly and helpful staff. We were lucky enough to be there on an evening when, unusually, dinner was also available and it was very very good.
Nothing
The stuff was amazingly helpful, breakfast was delicious and rich , the room was clean and very comfortable and the location! Right on the park and the forest and reachable with bus !
Sometimes you can hear the music and people from the cafe
Our stay at Saltmarsh Farmhouse was truly exceptional. Every detail was carefully considered, and the rooms were both beautiful and spotlessly clean. What really made our stay memorable, though, was Emma and her incredibly accommodating staff, who went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome and well taken care of. The roast lunch was sensational, and breakfast was equally delicious. We will definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone.
Friendly staff, great breakfasts and an UNBELIEVABLE location. There are 2 cafes and the Seven Sisters visitor centre within 30 steps from the door and walks to the beautiful Cuckmere Haven start just across the road.
Perfect location for walks on Seven Sisters National Park. Fabulous breakfast, great choice, cereal, fruit, pastries, hot breakfast and good coffee. Gorgeous suite with comfortable beds and beautiful linen. Staff were all fabulous.
The owner and staff were friendly and efficient, with a cheerful willingness to provide advice on places to go and things to do. The farmhouse is located right across the road from the conservation area in Seven Sisters Park with a path leading to the water and the spectacular white cliffs. We walked out there as the sun was coming up and were the only people there to appreciate the vista. This was a wonderful place to stay in a beautiful, lightly visited area. Highly recommend.
Nothing. We greatly enjoyed our stay here.
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt im Saltmash Farmhaus sehr genossen. Das Zimmer war gemütlich und liebevoll eingerichtet, das Frühstück ausgezeichnet. Die Lage mitten in der Natur, das nette Personal und die Sauberkeit machten unseren Aufenthalt rundum perfekt.

Courteous staff, especially Holly. Great facilities. Great location.
Very minor points not worth mentioning.
Saltmarsh Farm was a definite destination for our mini break. All of Emma’s staff couldn’t do enough for us. The breakfast was outstanding. Super coffee too! There was so much to do in the surrounding area. To top off our stay, we were treated to the magnificent spectacle of 5 Spitfires flying along Beachy Head. Highly recommended.
Mitten im Seven-Sisters- Naturpark gelegen. Sehr nettes Team und fantastisches Frühstück!
Moskitos! Aber das ist eben eine Nebenwirkung der Natur;) Mir fiel ein Buch unters Bett und schon war meine Hand voller Spinnweben. Könnte also etwas sorgfältiger gepflegt werden.
The most wonderful, cozy and rustic place. Very close to the Seven Sisters. Spotless. Parking is easy. Emma is the most welcoming and caring host. The full English breakfast was superb. Even our poodles received cozy blankets and welcoming cookies. We will definitely stay there again!
Really characterful country cottage in a superlative location with lovely cottage gardens to explore and relax in. The standard of service was really exceptional and the breakfasts absolutely first rate.
The room service didn’t match the rest of the experience with tea and coffee not topped up and dirty towels which we left in the shower as requested not removed.
Prachtig oud gebouw, toplocatie voor de Seven Sisters.
Kleine badkamer.
Excellent choice of cooked breakfast options with delicious yoghurt and seasonal fruit also available. Helpful and knowledgeable staff. Excellent location. Rooms with a personal touch - I appreciated expertly arranged fresh flowers in our room!
Awesome location, lovely property with heaps of activities nearby. We will come again
It would have been good to have some insect spray to deal with the mosquitoes that found their way into the rooms
Een prachtige plek, historisch gebouw en midden in een natuurgebied op loopafstand van de kliffen van de Seven Sisters en de zee. Zeer vriendelijk personeel. Op elke vraag was een antwoord, we voelden ons zeer welkom. Een fantastisch, vers ontbijt met een uniek keuzemenu: gerechten worden vers klaargemaakt. Een vrije tuin voor de hotelgasten. De schoonmaak was uitstekend.
De kamer (en die van anderen) hadden verschrikkelijk veel muggen. Er waren geen horren voor de ramen, wat wel noodzakelijk is. Blijkbaar door de moerassen in de buurt veel muggen. Op onze melding kregen we wel de volgende dag een soort van hor. Maar dat paste niet helemaal. De omgeving is een toplocatie voor toeristen. We hadden ons dat onvoldoende gerealiseerd. Het was rond het hotel/de B & B wel erg druk gedurende ons verblijf van 14-17 augustus. Het verblijf is een oud gebouw. Als je voor meer comfort gaat, is een andere keus beter.
Excellent position Very helpful staff Lovely breakfast
Unser Aufenthalt war rundum perfekt. Das Saltmarsh Farmhouse ist perfekt gelegen, um den Nationalpark und die Seven Sisters zu erkunden. Am Meer ist man nach einem halbstündigen Spaziergang durch die wunderschöne Natur. Das Personal war durchweg hilfsbereit und freundlich, das Frühstück war großartig und man hatte eine Auswahl zwischen einigen verschiedenen Gerichten. Das Zimmer war sehr ansprechend eingerichtet und gemütlich. Wir haben uns sehr wohl und willkommen gefühlt und würden jederzeit wiederkommen.
Wonderful setting, garden, breakfast, shower and all staff.
My mattress was uncomfortable. The room was quite small, as expected. However, it needed somewhere to keep the milk for the tea/coffee, in the warm weather.
-friendly staff and host Emma could not do enough to help - excellent breakfast - beautiful converted farmhouse property in great location - we would definitely stay again but would choose a different room
- for the price paid, our room “under the eaves” was too small
The location is great, and the staff are helpful and friendly from check-in to check-out.
Insects can be an issue at night during the summer, so it’s best to keep the window closed or make sure it has a proper screen.
We were travelling to South Hampton and decided to visit this area to see the Seven Sisters. The Saltmarsh Farm came up as a suggestion and we were very happy to have spent two nights here. The small hotel consisting of about 6 rooms is situated in the national park but no problem as it is very quiet at night although busy during the day as they have a gorgeous little café providing lunch and tea as part of the hotel. There is a walk directly from the hotel to the beach and cliffs which is very scenic. We visited some lovely villages all recommended by the helpful and efficient Emma who runs this beautifully restored farm house with care. All her staff are friendly and super helpful at all times. Breakfast is included and it is fresh and tasty. Emma made excellent suggestions for our evening meals and a visit to Vanessa Bells house which exceeded my exportations. We loved Alfriston and our dinner at The Wingrove restaurant was top class. I would highly recommend this hotel.
Friendly, helpful welcome from staff. Clearly keen that you enjoyed your stay. The breakfast was very good, with good choice, and freshly prepared. Nice quiet location, with pleasant gardens, close to National Park and convenient for local buses to Eastbourne.
Staff were all helpful and friendly, although you had to go looking for them at times when breakfasting. Good tea/coffee facility in room, although a few biscuits would have been a nice addition. Our room was a bit cramped, but adequate for our needs.
Saltmarsh Farmhouse (SMF) couldn't be in a more idyllic location nestled within sight of the River Cuckmere & barely a stone's throw from the Seven Sisters chalk cliffs towering over the East Sussex beach below. It proved the perfect base for a fortnight's cycling trip to explore the wider area surrounding the Cuckmere Valley & embrace the joy of interaction with the spectacular landscape on offer. The trip was made especially more memorable by the quality of service provided at SMF. I couldn't have asked for a more accommodating host & cannot praise their care & attention highly enough, matched equally by the quality & comfort of the accomodation provided. SMF is a sympathetically renovated farmhouse retaining abundant charm & character including a cute horsebox restored as a bar & "koffee kiosk"! All in all a thoroughly memorable trip combining spectacular landscape with unrivalled hospitality, very many thanks indeed, Emil
