  • Tucked away down a quiet Sussex country lane , but in close enough proximity to be able to explore the area with ease, although you will need a car. Renovated A a few years ago , Barley cottage has a spacious area downstairs , still retaining charm and old beams of its past life as a grain store to the farm. Tastefully converted into a 2 bedrooms with en suite and a more open plan layout downstairs. Under floor heating and Wi-Fi available, this cottage also boasts a separate fridge and freezer , dishwasher and washing machine. A small outside garden to the front and courtyard to the rear.

    The South downs are about 15 minutes drive from the cottage , and Eastbourne is 25 minutes. We also live close to Ashdown Forest , and many national trust properties including Burling Gap and Seven Sisters , Sissinghurst castle and Batemans.

Lovely Cottage

Feels like a very recent barn conversion, but the ratings show it to be older than it looks. A really great layout for small family reunions, having open spaces and quiet nooks for personal chats. Both bedrooms are ensuite. Big, well-equipped kitchen. Quite remote but good shopping is adequately close.

Situated in a quiet rural environment we had an enjoyable stay, visiting several National Trust properties. Also went to the coast and Battle Abbey, the site of the Battle of Hastings. The pub in the nearby village of Chiddingly is highly recommended.

Charming, comfortable and cosy.

We really enjoyed our stay in this delightful cottage which was convenient for all the sights in East Sussex. Great having 2 en-suites - which are hard to find - and flexibility with number of nights made it perfect for mum and me. Will definitely recommend to friends visiting the area.

Cottage in England

The property was beautiful, especially if you like the English countryside! Lovely hosts, very helpful. One note for all of the properties we visited would be to have grab-bar in shower and/or tub. Really enjoyed my stay! Diane, New Jersey

Lovely place

Beautifully renovated cottage in a peaceful place (down small country lanes), with friendly hosts. 2 bdrm has huge sitting areas downstairs, and great mod kitchen. Wifi weak, but new lines were being installed. Could use new bed pillows, otherwise our stay was perfect!

It was great...do check the carpet just in front of the bathroom door in twin bed bedroom...I think there may be an exposed carpet tack. That's a small issue, overall we had a wonderful stay!

Wonderful English cottage.

The cottage was very nice and offered everything we needed. Katie was super helpful and readily available to address any questions. At first we thought the location was isolated. But it turned out to be close to many interesting attractions and local pubs. Being from America, the roads were very narrow, which required an extra pound of caution. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to future visitors.

A little hidden gem which has to be experienced

A peaceful location with unexpected view of the Downs from outside. Well appointed cottage which exceeded all our expectations. So spacious inside loved the layout of the space downstairs with the garden room in which we spent happy evenings relaxing with a book. Best cottage we have ever stayed in for lighting in all the appropriate areas. Cottage was pristine, lovely bed linen and towels. Katie was most welcoming and made us feel at home straight away. This is definitely one we would return to and recommend to friends.

Tranquil rural hideaway

This is a beautifully presented rural cottage. In a very quiet location, we had a great time exploring the local countryside, coast, and NT gardens. The hosts were warm and friendly, and popped in just to check we had all we needed. This is a very well equipped cottage and was spotless. It is spacious and light , and we didn't use all of the seating areas. It was a little cold to sit outside, but the secluded patio did look inviting. The cottage was very warm and cosy, and the large kitchen made eating-in very easy. Easily one of the nicest places we've ever stayed. Thank you.
