The Royal Oak is a free house in a 16th-century cottage.

David Jeffrey and Sarah Warner have run the Royal Oak since 1990. The Royal Oak is an idyllic country pub, unspoilt and with great country walks. There is a large garden.

In the winter two lovely log fires greet you. There is an extensive menu. Also on offer are three permanent real ales.

The pub is haunted by the ghost of one who was believed to be a sheep rustler who operated on the South Downs in about 1680, going by the name of William "Shagger" Shepherd. He was pursued across the Downs by a group of angry farmers and was eventually shot after taking refuge in the Royal Oak.
