Overview
Property code: OC-O34807

A delightful apartment with picturesque views, this Sandhurst retreat makes the perfect base for couples and small families planning adventures across the High Weald National Landscape. Walkers and cyclists will delight in the wealth of peaceful trails all around; a popular route leads to the National Trust’s 14th-century Bodiam Castle (3.5 miles). Garden lovers are well catered for, with Great Dixter and Hole Park (4 miles), two wonderful gardens with accompanying tea rooms, as well as the National Trust’s Sissinghurst Castle and Garden (10 miles). Live life as a local with a visit to the charming village of Hawkhurst (4 miles) or wander the cobbled streets of Victorian Rye (10 miles), home to historic walking tours and traditional pubs and cafes. For outdoor adventures, explore Bedgebury National Pinetum and Forest (8.5 miles) or head to Bewl Water (11 miles). With Camber Sands just 13.5 miles away, beach days are easy too.

Kick off muddy walking boots in the entrance hall and climb the stairs to find your holiday hideaway. Step inside onto the landing and be greeted by a relaxing lounge/diner perfect for cosy evenings in. Here, soft seating invites you to unwind after days of adventure as you watch the Smart TV or gaze out over the garden. With cushy furnishings, thick rugs and various artworks, this is a peaceful base to relax between outings. Completing this space is a wooden dining table where you can gather to savour meals cooked up in the adjoining kitchen. This well-appointed area boasts everything needed for a self-catered stay as well as handy utilities to keep on top of holiday laundry. When it’s time to call it a night, two restful bedrooms await: choose from a master king-size room or a sweet twin bedroom. Serving the bedrooms and completing the interior is a sleek family shower room with a walk-in shower and WC.

We had a lovely holiday at this flat. It is in a good area with plenty to see and do, all a short drive away and more further afield too. There are some walks from the door you can do but we stayed during the heatwave so it was a bit too hot for us to do these. We visited the play park which is a short walk up the road and our daughter enjoyed it. Read moreThere are lots of national Trust properties in the area. Camber sands is a beautiful beach and we spent a day there, we also visited Howletts zoo which was a fun day out. We ate at the milk shed which can highly recommend. We stayed during the heat wave which wasnt a problem as we could open all the windows in the flat and it stayed nice and cool. The owners are lovely and very welcoming but not intrusive. We had a great holiday here and can definitely recommend. Hide

We received a lovely welcome from our friendly hosts, who truly went above and beyond to make us feel at homeespecially our two young daughters. They were delighted to help collect eggs from the chickens in the beautiful garden, which was a real highlight of the stay. We especially loved the countryside views overlooking the oast house at the rearRead more of the property. The cottage itself was clean, comfortable, and very well equipped, with the hosts artwork adding a unique and personal touch. The location is ideal for exploring many of the UKs finest gardens, castles, and charming villages. During our stay, we visited Bedgebury Pinetum, Scotney Castle, Camber Sands, Dungeness, and Great Dixter Gardens, though after five days we felt we had only just begun to explore the area. The hosts also provided a helpful guide with many more recommendations. Conveniently, Waitrose, Tesco, and a petrol station are all nearby. Overall, a wonderful stay that we would highly recommend.

Oast View Cottage was perfect for our long Easter weekend. The owners Juliette and John were very friendly and welcoming. They popped over to say Hello, brought over board games for our children, recommended local sights and gave my children chocolate eggs, much to their delight! The cottage was like home away from home, very comfortable and cosyRead more. We highly recommend it. Hide
