Cleo

A garden with a view of the castle. Under the table, all evening. I could manage that.

Bonnie

Castle views from the garden, wooden floors, low ceilings. My head and the ceilings need to get acquainted. Also, Sunday roast.

The pawrents

The King's Head on Southover High Street has a decked garden looking up at Lewes Castle. Dogs are welcome, and the Sunday roast is a good one. Weekend evenings get noisy. Three rooms upstairs, so ask which take dogs.
