Customer Reviews

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.

We had a wonderful stay, loved the decor of the rooms and the service was great. Friendly staff, good food and perfect weekend break with my sisters. We enjoyed the yoga too. Would definitely recommend and will hopefully come back to experience it all in the summer!

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 !

Thank you all very much for our lovely stay at The Gallivant. We really appreciated the upgrade to one of your garden rooms – it was great to have books to browse and the super bath, plenty of hot water and bath salts all added to our relaxing stay. Dinners in The Cabin were delicious and the ambience was warm and cosy. We really appreciated the fantastic English wine tasting organised at short notice by Jonathan and indeed some of the wines were a revelation! We will certainly recommend to friends. Sue

The staff make this hotel very friendly and accommodating , food was excellent , breakfast great choice and love all the extra touches like the wine o’clock and the bedtime hot herbal tea and pillow spray and candle etc was a lovely room very clean and couldn’t fault it just in 2nd night at turndown they didn’t change our towels but that didn’t spoil anything loved ut

I had such a wonderful time at The Gallivant, I feel so refreshed thanks to the beautiful location and incredible staff who were kind and welcoming. My trip was even more special thanks to Evelyn, Lindsay, Naketa and Katie.

Evelyn is a superstar and brilliant at her job – she made my trip even better. We clicked straight away and she made me laugh and feel welcome, she's such a lovely person and an asset to The Gallivant. Also, a huge thank you to Lindsay for upgrading me to the Luxury Garden room – that bathtub was a dream! Naketa was so friendly, helpful and funny. Katie is such a sweet human! I don't usually practice yoga and she made me feel so comfortable and stayed to chat afterwards. If I was local, I'd be at her classes all the time!

Camber Sands is a new favourite place and I'd love to revisit The Gallivant. Thank you so much for making the trip so memorable for me! Tori 🙂

Stayed one night in January. Big mistake – should have stayed more! Beautiful "Hampton"bedroom. Comfortable public lounge filled with interesting books and magazines. Relaxed, friendly staff who were very helpful and professional. The 5pm welcome wine was nice touch and much appreciated. Freezing sleet curtailed our enjoyment of the sand dunes and Camber Sands; but we loved our brief stay.

Massively attentive team, even while the hotel was busy. The rooms, restaurant and options are brilliant and they made the stay as enjoyable as possible – would 100% recommend for a getaway if you're looking for a relaxing time away.
