Every time I come to visit my mum we always go for coffee (and cake) here. If possible we sit in the very pretty little garden. The staff are very pleasant (but i think the owner can be a little hard on them sometimes, which we witnessed last time we went in). The cakes are irresistible and the location is... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay ay Cabbages and Kings the past weekend. We were in the UK for the christening of our grandson Noah. Our son found C&K in Trip Advisors. The owner Jane was very attentive to our needs and comfort. We would not hesitate to recommend C&K to anyone traveling in the area. Indeed my son and his... More

I have been back several times since I first discovered it. It's like visiting a friend who has a lovely home and lives to bake! The owner has worked hard to improve the layout and flow which has meant some closures but its absence has made my heart (or rather stomach) grow fonder!! I would recommend it to any food-lover...

Stayed at C+K when we attended friends christening in Halstead. Excellent accommodation which accommodated our two young children, which isn't always easy to find! One of the nicest breakfasts I have had (and I have travelled extensively and stayed in many hotels). Jane's attention to detail and personal service really contributed to making this an excellent stay. Definitely would stay... More

I brought my parents here for a week to visit family and friends. Jane was an excellent host, friendly, helpful & always making us feel at home. Her attention to detail & high standards ensure the place is spotlessly clean and the rooms beautifully decorated with a feeling of quality throughout. All aspects of our stay were brilliant - the...

We thoroughly enjoyed our two nights at Cabbages and Kings. Our room was lovely, the breakfast was fabulous (as is all the food in the downstairs tea room), and owner Jane and her staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. We toured the home of Charles Darwin in nearby Downe, spent a great day in Lewes (at Jane's recommendation), and bought... More

I was recommended Cabbages and Kings by some work colleagues. I emailed to book a room for one night for my wife and I as we were attending a fundraising event for a local hospice, but I did not receive acknowledgement. After several days I rang and got through to the owner who was very helpful but did not have... More

we stayed at C&K for an overnight stop over after going to a concert at the o2. upon arriving we were made to feel more than welcome and offered tea and coffee in the beautiful garden while our room was being checked. Jane could not do enough for us to the extent that when i asked for a numberf for... More

Our third stay at C&K, and our first ever review! Yet again we were 'blown away' by the friendly welcome, the beautiful rooms, the gorgeous breakfasts, and the wonderful location. Jane has achieved so very much since our last visit. The Tea Shop is now in full operation, and integrates seamlessly into the B&B experience. breakfasts are freshly, and lovingly... More
