The Old House at Home is another one of our pubs so of course we'll recommend it! There's a main bar and big garden (great for the kids) out the back and on weekends we have a cocktail bar that hosts different music events. We also have "summer sunset sessions" on some Saturday nights in the garden. No table bookings, just turn up and enjoy yourselves!

Nestled in the South Downs, Lordington Lavender was established in 2002 by local farmer Andrew Elms. After selling his dairy herd he was looking for a new way to diversify and decided that Lavender would be a unique and exciting alternative.

No fertilizers or pesticides are used and it has become haven for wildlife with at least 12 red listed species of birds including skylarks and barn owls found on the farm. https://www.lordingtonlavender.co.uk/
