Located just outside the village of Cowbeech, which lies within the Civil Parish of Herstmonceux, heritage and history flow throughout. The Merrie Harriers local village pub, with 16th-century origins, has far-reaching views over the Sussex countryside, making it the perfect place to relax.

We LOVED our time at The Parlour. It served as a wonderful base to explore East Sussex and on the rainy days was nice to relax, take in the views and take the dog for a walk around the farm. Sam is a lovely and friendly host. Highly recommend

Een mooi, ruim, gelijkvloerse vakantiewoning. Voorzien van alle comfort.Vriendelijke, toegankelijke eigenares. Een mooie omgeving waar veel te doen en te bezichtigen is!Wanneer je van tevoren belt of appt, zetten ze een bordje aan de weg met de naam van de vakantiewoning erop, zodat het makkelijk te vinden is! Absoluut een vakantiewoning om aan te bevelen!
