Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers frequently mention the property's spotless condition and high standards of cleanliness, indicating meticulous upkeep and attention to detail.
The property's location is highly praised for its proximity to countryside walks, local attractions, and the coast. The presence of a country pub next door and a village shop adds to the convenience, although a few comments about traffic noise suggest it may not be perfect for everyone.
Comfort is a recurring theme, with guests finding the property cosy and the beds comfortable. The addition of a new kingsize bed and memory foam mattress has been positively received, although there were earlier comments about the bed size.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with mentions of quality appliances and a well-equipped kitchen. However, some feedback on maintenance issues like the heating settings and garden upkeep slightly lowers the score.
While many reviews express gratitude for the host's welcoming nature and the property's amenities, there is no specific mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category.
About this property
Situated in the rural village of Catsfield, East Sussex is this beautiful converted stable, White Hart Stables. The property is situated in the High Weald AONB and has been renovated into a wonderful holiday home for couples. Find an off-road parking space to unload your luggage at the characterful, white stable and make yourself at home. Internally, the property boasts a light-filled, open-plan living space with a sofa bed, offering space for two extra guests, to curl up on and enjoy an evening with your loved one and catch up on your favourite shows. The kitchen has a set of pristine white units and sleek wooden worktops, with ample preparation space to prepare your meals, whilst the dining area is ideal for hosting delicious romantic meals. On warmer evenings, why not make dinner an alfresco affair in the beautiful, enclosed courtyard? Relax after an adventure-filled day whilst your canine companion can play safely. Retire to a well-presented king size bedroom with matching furniture, high ceilings and wooden beams. Start your day with a hot shower or a relaxing soak in the tub in the en-suite bathroom, whilst your towel warms up on the heated towel rail. Catsfield is a historic, peaceful village to call home during your stay in Sussex and a walker's paradise; venture into the surrounding countryside to explore the pristine landscapes of High Weald, stop of at Battle to discover the mediaeval ruins of Battle Abbey, before returning to Catsfield for dinner at The White Hart Inn. Take a drive to the thriving town of Bexhill, which offers a plethora of local attractions for tourists to enjoy; the De La Warr Pavilion is a modernist building from 1935 and has exhibitions on contemporary art with a bar and shop inside. Be sure to visit Egerton Park, which is located within a few minutes' walk of the seafront, offering a spacious area for you to enjoy lovely country walks, while your little ones play in the play-zone. Get involved with thrilling zip wires, climbing units, a tree house, sand area or opportunities for informal games of football or rounders, while Herstmonceux Castle, dating back to the 15th century and set in 600-acres of Elizabethan gardens, is perfect for some scenic walking with your partner. Just a short drive away from the property is the mediaeval village of Rye, which is picturesque and steeped in history with its half-timber buildings and cobbled streets to spend the afternoon wandering around. For coastal escape, Hastings is a short journey south to wander along the bustling pier with an ice cream in hand, take a dip in the sea at the pebble beach or head to the town's museum and art gallery for cultural delights. White Hart Stables offers a relaxing break in the heart of the countryside.
Catsfield is a quiet, rustic village with a few farms and cottages strewn around. Set in a beautiful rural setting with wonderful views over meadows and fields, the area is suitable for strolling, cycling, and horseback riding. Catsfield is part of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the Sussex Weald. The church of St Lawrence, which dates from the Middle Ages, is well worth a visit. Explore the town's towers and battlegrounds, get lost in history, and enjoy afternoon tea in one of the town's many charming tea houses.
