Ideally situated on the edge of the Kent/Sussex border and with easy access to local walks, and several farm shops and character-filled pubs nearby, you’ll be well placed to kick-start your Sussex adventures with a stay at this cosy cottage. Step outside and take to the trails on foot or two wheels with footpaths starting right on the doorstep. Wander through the stunning High Weald National Landscape or make a splash at Bewl Water (4.7 miles), offering a variety of water sports as well as walking and cycling trails. For a more relaxed afternoon, visit Pashley Manor Gardens (1.6 miles) or discover walks around Bedgebury Forest (3.1 miles). History lovers will adore the many local National Trust and English Heritage properties nearby, including Batemans, Scotney Castle and Battle Abbey, all within 8.5 miles. Further afield, take a trip to the vibrant coastal towns of Bexhill, Hastings and Rye (all within 17 miles) for memorable seaside days.

Enter this pretty cottage, which is attached to the owner's property on a working farm, into the bright and airy lounge/diner. The light-filled space boasts dual-aspect windows and bi-fold doors overlooking the garden, as well as underfloor heating, adding to the comfort of your stay. The cosy lounge is the perfect place to curl up on the sofa in front of the wood burner after a busy day exploring, to watch a film on the Smart TV/DVD, or to relax with a good book. The kitchen has everything you’ll need for preparing romantic meals, which can be savoured over at the intimate dining table. A small utility room just off the kitchen has a door to the parking area and offers a washing machine, tumble dryer and space for coats and shoes – ideal for when you return from long, muddy walks. The sumptuous king-size bedroom features a pretty metal bedframe and an en-suite wet room with a large walk-in shower and WC.

Bi-fold doors from the lounge area lead out to the garden, where there is a choice of relaxing seating, as well as a parasol for sunny afternoons.

Excellent little cottage and one of the best we have stayed in. Wendy was a fabulous host and made us very welcome, the fresh flowers were a lovely touch. Everything spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Close to some great places for visiting. Would especially recommend Pashley Manor Gardens, a short drive away.

I can recommend this cottage and would be willing to return in the future. The woodburner was super. Everything one 'should' require to be a home from home was provided. Although property is close to a major road traffic noise is not really an issue as bedroom is at rear of property.

Beautifully appointed annex to the main house. The arrangements for checking in and out were very clear. The owners were very helpful during my stay, suggesting places that would be good for me to visit, and volunteering help on a couple of extra things they lent me to make my stay more comfortable. The cottage is very close to the A21 which made iRead moret great for going places. You could hear the road at the front it isnt an issue at all, and in the bedroom it was 100% quiet. Thoroughly recommended. Hide

A truly fabulous place to stay. Light, airy & superbly appointed, with a welcome basket upon arrival. The log burner complemented the underfloor heating on chilly evenings. Beautiful woodland walks direct from the property. Ideally situated to visit the wealth of National Trust properties in the area. We had a brilliant stay and will happily returnRead more in the future. Hide
