Restaurants near Sweetwoods Park Golf Club

Only made decision to go about an hour ahead and what a find. Good atmosphere in the pub and the food quality was every bit as good as at the Ashdown Park Hotel which has two aa rosettes. Good wine list and excellent Harvey's beer. The sauce with the Hake main course was superb.

I stumbled across the Dorset Arms while in the area and what caught my eye straight away was the sight of oysters on the menu, not something you expect from a traditional pub tucked away in the middle of Sussex. Naturally, curiosity (and a love of good seafood) led me in. I was genuinely impressed. The Mersey oysters were outstanding, fresh, briny, and as good as any I’ve had. In fact, I usually swear by the oysters at Smiths in Wapping, which are hard to top, but these were right up there. To start, I had the Padron peppers, which were perfectly blistered with just the right touch of salt. For my main, the flat chicken really delivered, juicy, full of flavour, and nicely glazed. If I had to nitpick, the accompanying salad could have used a little more variety, maybe some cherry tomatoes or peppers for a pop of colour and texture. The wine list was a pleasant surprise too. I started with a white that paired beautifully with the oysters, then switched to a rosé that was dangerously easy to drink. The staff were polite, the atmosphere relaxed, and the food far exceeded expectations. If you are anywhere near the area, the Dorset Arms is absolutely worth a visit, especially if you’re an oyster lover. Highly recommended.

Lovely pub and restaurant in the east sussex country side, nice atmosphere, friendly locals. Food very nice

Great food and my party enjoyed their lunch with me.

Food was good, we were missing part of a sharer we had ordered. When we asked for it the server seemed quite annoyed and said so we want 'more bread and dip' so we explained we never had any come out with the two sharers we had ordered. There was a bit of a huff as they walked off. Other than that one moment it was all lovely food and the other serving staff were great, but that moment did make us feel a bit odd! Some Places that you sit, as the sun sets it does get in your eyes a far bit! Would return again, absolutely!
