We stayed here on Friday and Saturday evening on the recommendation from some friends. The pub had a roaring fire and warm welcome when we arrived late on Friday night.... read more The room was spacious and the bed was incredibly comfy. The staff at the Half Moon went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we all had an enjoyable time.

Thank you to all the team at the Half Moon!!

PS. The venison steak was one of the best I have ever had!!

  My riding partner booked the Half Moon for an over-night stop having previously stayed here with his wife. We arrived late afternoon and first impressions were very encouraging as this... read more impressive building dominates the square. The main entrance opens straight in to the bar that is furnished with simple but good quality tables and chairs. In one corner was a lovely log stove that gave a welcome warmth and glow to the room. And here you can eat rather than in the adjoining large more formal dining room, but that is also used for breakfast. Anna completed the arrival and registration procedures in a pleasant and professional manner and throughout our short stay made us most welcome. Our rooms 4 & 5 although above the bar and overlooked the square were quiet, furnished, decorated and equipped (complementary refreshments, linen & bathroom accessories) all to a very acceptable standard. The food and menu deserves an additional mention. A very good choice and sensibly priced. Local ingredients and home cooked we chose the pie followed by a crumble dessert. For breakfast there was an excellent choice of soft fruits and my scrambled egg and salmon was a prodigious serving. Finally the room rate that included breakfast represented real value for money. I have every intention of returning in the New Year with my wife. Wonderful experience.

  This is a difficult time for Inns/Hotels like the Half Moon Inn. My family spent three nights there last week. The staff, without exception at breakfast, lunch and... read more dinner were always efficient, helpful and jolly - being jolly is not always easy at the moment. The food was delicious with the menu changing and they all went out of their way to be accommodating. I’ve recently been to a couple of pubs in Worthing where I live with completely the opposite experience and will not be returning to them. Very impressive.

  Stayed here with our family Aug 2020, place was extremely clean - they take COVID very seriously and have a thorough sanitation policy throughout pub and b&b. Nice breakfast, comfy... read more beds. Would recommend

  Found the Half Moon on our cycling tour. Wow what a lovely place. The Half Moon is a totally charming inn in a beautiful little village. Bedrooms bright and fresh.... read more Beds super comfortable. Staff lovely and food delicious. (Including veggie option). Really impressed.
Would recommend it to anyone. Loved our stay. (And they even locked our bikes up to keep them safe.

  Booked this short break through Pets Pajamas. On their site it obviously concentrated on the dog facilities. Overall it was a really nice relaxing three night stay. However, we didnt... read more get the impression they were overly enthusiastic about the dog, no welcome doggy pack as promised or doggy treats on the bar. Also when asked about local short walks (Morning + night) it was very vague. We were given the impression we weren't welcome to walk along the river with the dog as there were fishermen. (The Inn sells the licences). We did go along the river on the last morning when they had all left and it was a really enjoyable walk. Don't get me wrong, the staff overall were very helpful and accomodating to us throughout the visit and Wilson got a bit of fuss from some of the staff. I just think there could be a bit of miscommunication between Pets Pajamas and the Inn. For the B+B price you really cannot fault the Half Moon, especially with the huge and tasty breakfast included, the best I've had at any Hotel/Inn stayed at. This was mirrored by the evening fare, really tasty and varied, without the expensive bill. In fact we felt we could have eaten there a couple of more nights due to the variety. Bedroom was large, clean and comfortable in keeping with the age and character of the Inn. If we stay again I would ask for a room in the annex purely to make access easier for the dog.

  Friendly staff that let us keep our bikes safe in an out building. Great reasonably priced food, very comfortable and clean accommodation. Maybe the best breakfast that I have ever... read more had! Highly recommended.

  Firstly I want to say that the food was excellent and so much better than usual pub food. It was presented beautifully and tasted fresh and full of flavour. There... read more was nothing that I could criticise at all. However the service was extremely poor. We had our dog with us so we’re in the bar area which was no problem at all to us but as we had been put in the rod room it felt that we were just forgotten about. We were there over 2 hours having had just 2 courses. We had to go and find someone to order more drinks, order puddings, get the bill. It really did feel as if we were ‘out of sight, out of mind. The rod room did just feel like a bit of a back office. As I said the food was beautiful but we probably wouldn’t return due to the service. More

  We love our visits to the Half Moon, a beautiful old pub full of character and a cosy atmosphere. The hosts are very friendly and welcoming, and the food is... read more truly outstanding. A very interesting menu always, superbly cooked and presented and extremely flavoursome and very tasty. I think one of the best places that we enjoy to eat. Thankyou.
