Very restful, welcoming hosts, excellent pub next door. Cottage well-equipped and welcome basket very generous. Beautiful views from the cottage veranda. Internet connection could be flaky, especially in the evenings. No village shop, unfortunately. Lots to see in the local area.Definitely somewhere we’d go back to.

A little piece of heaven on this earth what an amazing place. So peaceful so tranquil so special to be able to sit out on the veranda and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature and the lovely views across the Sussex countryside. The cottage is perfect everything you could possibly need so clean, bright, and comfortable. Neil and Caroline the perfect hosts 10/10 Loved the idea of the trolley to help move the luggage down the short garden path We will be back 😀
