Gun Hill Cottage should certainly be at the top of your list if you're searching for a rural retreat for the family or with friends in this idyllic part of England.
Care and attention has gone into its refurbishment with no expense spared in making this a really comfortable and homely place to stay.
The pretty, rose-covered, weather-boarded exterior will certainly catch your eye as you venture up the front path.
Once inside you'll be won over by the charming character the cottage exudes, with its original features such as the beamed ceilings, yet all the comforts you'd expect from a contemporary home are there for you to enjoy.
Subtle tones dominate throughout adding to the feeling of tranquillity.
There is plenty to entertain here and you may find yourself whiling away more than a few hours in the games room with its pool table.
Outside you have third of an acre of garden and woodland to explore as well as a lovely pond to lounge by at the end of a busy day.
One of the Vicinity’s lovely walks is the Wealdway, which meanders around a mile to Chiddingly, a classic English village with church, pub (The Six Bells), cricket field and street of delightful cottages. Horam Manor is about one mile to the north and offers fishing, nature trails, riding lessons, and pottery painting, while for keen golfers there are courses at Horam Park (one mile) and Wellshurst (three miles).

The downstairs was cold except for the lounge as we had a fire going every evening. Thereâs damp and mould inside and there was water ingress in the downstairs bathroom. Itâs a shame as it could be vastly improved with some work. Lovely area but not worth the money.
Alan
Lovely woods nearby to walk in. An excellent pub (with a very good restaurant) within a short walk down the road. What more could you ask for?
Martin
It's cosy and, with family in Eastbourne, convenient for the coast. The lounge is spacious and relaxing and we had a few games of pool in the games room. The kitchen is on the small side but well equipped. Despite the rain it was a lovely birthday break and we would recommend the Gun Pub, just a few minutes walk up the road - the food and ambience was excellent. I suspect we'll be returning to Gun Hill Cottage in the future!
