Cleo

A Jack Russell called Arthur greets you at the door. I'll compare notes.

Bonnie

A skittle alley. I knock things over by accident already. Here it's a sport.

The pawrents

Barcombe's village pub, with an open fire, a garden, one of Sussex's few skittle alleys and food cooked from local ingredients. The roast lamb is the one to order. Child and dog friendly. Closed Mondays.
