Coombe Tye Garden Cottage, East Grinstead

About this property

A perfect location in the High Weald of Sussex for visiting Standen and the Bluebell Railway

A wonderful ‘chocolate box’ cottage that offers cosy and comfortable accommodation in beautiful and quiet gardens that look south east across the Sussex High Weald.

The cottage has one double bedroom with both the living room and bedroom enjoying a bright south easterly aspect over the gardens. The terrace is interspersed through the day with dappled shade making an appealing and comfortable outside area from which to relax, enjoy breakfast and evening meals.

Set within the grounds of the owner’s home and located in an elevated position just to the south of the market town of East Grinstead, Coombe Tye Garden Cottage is well placed to visit many of the visitor attractions found in the north of the Sussex Weald. It comes comprehensively equipped with separate bathroom, featuring bathtub with wall mounted shower attachment, and kitchen for a comfortable stay and conveys a relaxing ‘home from home’ feel, cosy and comfortable.

East Grinstead and beyond

Drop down the hill and a mile away is the market town of East Grinstead with its traditional wide street and shops that have been very much retained at the southern end of the town.

This area of Sussex offers excellent access to many well known visitor attractions. The National Trust property at Standen is within three miles of Coombe Tye Garden Cottage. The Victorian house inspired by the architect Philip Webb and his friend William Morris is tucked away at the end of a quiet Sussex lane and offers stunning views over the High Weald towards the Weir Wood Reservoir. A visit here can easily keep you occupied for a day.

Now opened to East Grinstead, the Bluebell Railway passes within a mile of the cottage and steam trains can now be heard from the nearby Imberhorne cutting! Take the railway south through Kingscote and Horsted Keynes to Sheffield Park and visit Sheffield Park Gardens an internationally renowned garden and parkland also owned by the National Trust. Other nearby attractions are Wakehurst Place, home to the Millennium Seed Bank, Nymans House and Gardens and High Beeches. All are within a twenty minute drive of Garden Cottage.

Three miles south east is the beautiful Sussex village of Forest Row and south from there the Ashdown Forest and the many walks that the Forest provides. This is just a flavour of the area. Take a look on our homepage under ‘Places to visit’ for full details on all the attractions.
