To elaborate, the rooms are not as described, they demand more money than advertised, place is poorly run and not worth nearly as much as they charge and no where near Gatwick (unless you have a car).

Staying at Carylls Country House is truly a pleasure. The rooms are comfortable and all en-suite, with fridges and microwaves, which is very convenient. The house itself is stunning with lots of history and original features.
The staff are fantastic and really help make your stay at Carylls a pleasant one. Everyone is friendly and helpful, and truly go out of their way to help. Michael the manager is super efficient, Neil and Dave along with the others are incredibly helpful and work so hard. Peter is a lovely chap and helps with the cleaning.
One of Carylls most wonderful assets is the grounds in which it is kept. Beautiful, green, open land, of some acres, which is stunning to behold and kept to the most exacting standards. The groundsmen really come into their own here. The lawn is spacious and a joy to sit out or gaze upon, year round.
Location wise, Carylls ticks all the boxes too. It is near two local villages and plenty of shops. It has a train station, and Gatwick is 20 minutes away.
Carylls has been a home to me. Thanks to the great effort the staff put in, and the attention to detail, I have been very happy here. I don’t hesitate to recommend Carylls as the perfect place to stay.
A charming house, in beautiful grounds, with attentive staff and a lovely housecat, Ginger – perfect!
I stayed here for a week while I was working in Crawley, no complaints, clean and tidy. Didn’t do any cooking in the room but I did use the fridge to keep drinks in which was handy. Will stay there again.

hahaha at least youve learned to make self reviews look more genuine! (google" brown book carylls"!)This place is a musty smelling dump, and ask the owner how long a week stay is, to him its 7 days (6 nights!) does that mean if i book one day i cant sleep there! plus points are the other staff there are really friendly, grounds are great, location is ok ish from horsham. downside is it stinks (quote from what is clearly a self review “If iIwas to have any criticism it would be that the corridors smelled a bit of cleaning products – but that was no big deal really”), rooms are grotty, fridge in room was noisy, mouldy in shower etc, etc, etc. If you think you want to stay here then book elsewhere too, go and see the room BEFORE you pay anything, guarantee you will end up in the other accomodation you booked!

From Carylls: According to our records, Mr Williams stayed at Carylls over 18 months ago. It is beyond comprehension why he has the urge and the time to write about us now.
Below is copy of one of our most recent reviews:
Michael, just a brief note before I move on tomorrow to say many thanks for your help during my seven months stay. Of the many hotels, B & B’s, and rented accommodation I have spent time in over the last 26 years as a consultant engineer, Carylls has been a unique experience as all the facilities are available without the feeling you are in someone else’s home and yet at such reasonable rates. Your staff have been great without exception and I will be sorry to move on from a very idyllic and calm location with the charming grounds. An ideal set up for the independent business person. If the opportunity arises to work in the area again, be assured Carylls will be my first port of call.
Best regards, Paul G Murray, Algamma Ltd – Established 1985.

I had a time of my life staying at Carylls, made friends for a lifetime! Best part is I always felt like coming home to Carylls from work. Next time I am coming to these shores, Carylls will be the port of call all the time. Kudos to you guys for maintaining such an awesome place and the most friendly staff!!

I spent one night at Carylls Guest House because I couldn't find a cheap bed and breakfast near Gatwick Airport.
It turned out to be one of the best finds I have ever made on my travels! Great prices (even for a one-night stay) and immaculate rooms - what to speak of the friendly service (from both Peter and Michael).
I don't know what the other reviewer was on about with the towels - I found the facilities (yes even the towels) to be first class.
If iIwas to have any criticism it would be that the corridors smelled a bit of cleaning products - but that was no big deal really (at least I knew it was clean!)
I plan to stay there every time I need to be handy to Gatwick - in fact I might even try and add a day to the beginning of my trip just to stay there!

What a load of rubbish – clearly this is the handy work of Michael “the mentalist” Manager

We stayed at Carylls for a weekend away. The journey was an easy one by train into London then a connection from Victoria to Faygate station. We were made welcome by Michael the Manager and Jan his wife. Our room was clean and well equipped, with ensuite and a kitchenette furnished with crockery, cutlery, sink, microwave and fridge. Towels and linen were provided, as was a welcome pack of tea, milk, &c. Furniture was suitable for long or short stay, including a TV and free broadband. The rooms had not long been refurbished. There were also equipped communal kitchens for more adventurous cooking, and a launderette. Our room overlooked the magnificent gardens. There was free car parking for those who needed it. There is a lot to see and visit round and about, and pubs and restaurants for those who do not wish to cook. We had a good time. P&DH

I stayed in October and left a review. I then went off to work in Japan. Having returned late Feb I updated my review to reflect my true opinion of Carylls. I did not stay at Carylls in March and hope this is clear to the Manager. I certainly would not stay at this place ever again.

carylls, 28 March 2011:
Thank you Sachre. Carylls would not want you to come back if you are that disatisfied have stayed in October and still writing 6 months later – at the end of March.

RH12 4SNDear Michael and Jan,
I am very happy for you to use the testimonial below as my personal recommendation of Carylls.
Testimonial:
I have personally visited Carylls Country House and have been impressed with its facilities. Carylls offers instant lets of self-catering en-suite rooms to clients. It is a stunning 15th century country house which has recently been refurbished to offer excellent value for money rooms on a nightly, weekly or longer stay basis.
I find this service helpful to my company, Sussex Lets, when I get enquiries from clients who are unable to enter into a standard tenancy agreement. It is nice to be able to offer these people an instant solution instead of just turning them away.
Over the last year or so I have sent many clients to Carylls and have had much positive feedback.
I am delighted that Michael and Jan are thinking of inviting other agents to view Carylls for themselves, and to recommend its services.
Kind Regards
Yours sincerely
Sarah Ribbans
Lettings Manager

Awful place - very old and very very tired. In particular the bed linen and towels are awful - they should be thrown away. Nothing matches.
Much better places to stay at the same price. Carylls is over priced and certainly not worth the money.
One good thing about it - the garden. Otherwise stay here at your peril.

I am the Manager of Carylls. We have been fully booked since February bar a couple of nights here and there. I do wonder whether the above review is from a competitor?? I cant see any such comments in our guest book.

Strange - when I stayed there in May 2011 my room (and others that I saw) were totally newly renovated - nothing 'tired' about it.
