Located in the High Weald National Landscape, this 16th-century Grade II-listed farmhouse on the grounds of the owner’s property is ideal for families and groups of friends who love the great outdoors. There are plenty of scenic walks to explore on foot or by bike beginning from the doorstep; rolling countryside and far-reaching views await. Named after the Battle of Hastings, Battle, 12 miles away, is home to a charming high street lined with a variety of independent shops and cafes which showcase some of this area’s best local produce. Soak up hundreds of years of history at Bodiam Castle, 11.5 miles away, an enchanting medieval castle with wonderful walks around its surrounding parkland. From countryside to coast, enjoy a traditional bucket and spade day at the seaside at nearby Hastings, Bexhill and Eastbourne, all reached within 20.5 miles.
Retaining much of its original character, with sloping ceilings, exposed beams and beautiful stonework, this homely hideaway perfectly blends period charm with all your creature comforts. Reminiscent of days gone by, the farmhouse kitchen greets you with a charming country-cottage finish, setting a rustic ambience and embracing your stunning surroundings, with lovely views across the garden. A step up leads you through to the cosy lounge, which enjoys the welcome warmth and soothing glow of a feature wood burner set in an exposed-brick fireplace, and plush seating which invites weary walkers to unwind. At the other end of the kitchen, you’ll find the dining room with enchanting countryside views, and there’s a step up into the adjoining snug – another cosy spot to hunker down beside the electric wood burner. A contemporary shower room completes the ground floor. On the first floor, you’ll find a charming king-size bedroom with a Smart TV, perfect for lazy morning lie-ins, and a single bedroom with a trundle bed to accommodate an additional guest. A few further steps lead to a cosy double bedroom and another king-size bedroom with a Smart TV, as well as a delightful bathroom with a Jacuzzi bath, perfect for soaking weary walking muscles.
Outside, the enclosed garden offers a haven of tranquillity, with something for everyone to enjoy, from the heated swim spa and bubbling hot tub to the large lawn and spacious decking with a gas BBQ. Relax and enjoy magnificent views of the High Weald from the decking, keeping watch for the abundance of birdlife in the area. There is private parking for two cars.
