Another wonderful stay. Sublime. Special thanks to Lindsay, Naketa and Agnes who, as always, are so welcoming and make things run so smoothly. Agnes behind the scenes enhances the booking process. So nice to have a chat with her over the phone and then in person just makes it more personal. Lindsay misses nothing and is instrumental is getting the new staff up to speed in a kind, caring way. She and Naketa are the perfect Front of House team. They are a delight, making time for a chat and always have their eye out to step, in ensuring the service runs like clockwork.

The three of them really are the backbone of the hotel.

John behind the bar is knowledgeable and attentive, making sure your drink is exactly what you want and he was so informative when serving the meals too. Really knowing the produce and menu. Just excellent.

The Gallivant is an oasis of calm. I love it and will look forward to my return in March.

We visited the Gallivant to celebrate my husbands Birthday. Luckily enough to stay for two nights we had a really divine time. Very comfortable room, brilliant deep bath, totally in love with the Bamford spa products, excellent food and the staff who we met were all incredibly friendly and welcoming. Definitely going to visit again and have already recommended to friends.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay at the Gallivant. Everything has been well thought out and the coastal chic vibe is impressive. Our luxury garden room was lovely, the guest cake & wine nice touches and the dinner & breakfast great. I would say it might be nice to have more variety on the dessert menu – a chocolate option is always nice! Other than that, a very relaxing break, friendly staff and very welcoming of our dog. Hopefully we can return in the future. The proximity to the Camber Sands beaches is so appealing.

It’s always a perfect stay – because of the staff and welcome and the consistent high quality food. I have been coming for 10 years and I try not to tell anyone about it as it’s my secret getaway!. Sometimes a last minute one night we or a weekend, sometimes on my own, it always delivers a calibre of service you would only rarely receive in a high end international hotel: thanks guys for looking after me !
