The nearest street light is two miles away. Owls,deer and the occasional nightingale are the only sounds in the middle of the night The cottage is newly finished in 2021 and décor is fresh and modern with plenty of parking and a small decking area. This is a quiet cottage . Rooms are light and spacious with a modern kitchen/dining room that provides for sociable cooking and dining (seats 4-6). and patio doors that open onto the garden. The reception room is separate, both with digital TV (so the kids can escape!) and good but limited wifi. No fibre cable out here . Efficient central heating means the house is warm in winter but its also well ventilated and cool in summer.There is an upstairs loo and bathroom with large shower downstairs. 2 bedrooms are available; one double- bedded and 2 singles and there is also a brand new double sofa bed in the lounge. The small patio is secluded, fully fenced, and child/pet friendly and great for drinks on a summer evening: count how many species of bird you can hear !. The darkness allows you to watch an impressive array stars on a clear evening and the quiet off street location means a peaceful night's sleep is guaranteed. We are near a rail line but trains are infrequent and soon pass by .Please note we have a cat and small dog so any pets must be under your control outside. Dogs by agreement only. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Games - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 25 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property - Note from host: Outdoors only ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near the sea ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property;

Everything we needed. There is a railway line by the property but it didn't spoil the peace. The spring dawn chorus was wondrous. Apparently nightingales sing here too, but is was too early for them. Plenty of places to eat in the area, and not far from the coast. Great place to stay. ##### Jill A.

Every that you need is supplied. Mobile & WIFI can be a bit patchy due to rural location but not an issue for us. Local area was not good for dog walking due to the wet conditions over last few months and did not want to bring back a mucky dog. Nearby Lewes was a good town with choice of shops, cafes, pubs & restaurants. Nearby ‘Rainbow’ pub do an excellent Sunday carvery. Close proximity of railway line did not bother us as we are early risers in the morning. ##### David M.

Eugene made himself known to.us ensuring we had everything we required. House was beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. My 6 ft 4 sons found the low bedroom ceilings challenging. However we were aware of this before we rented the property. Would not hesitate to recommend for a peaceful retreat. Beautiful sussex countryside. ##### Christine w.

This is a beautiful area and we found Eugene's place easy to find and very convenient for exploring the area. The cottage itself was perfect for 4-5 girls for a chilled weekend. The kitchen was well-equipped, the beds comfortable, the house warm, and there was also a TV and games for nights in. Eugene was very helpful and friendly - fixed a problem we had with a tap super promptly - and I would definitely recommend this cottage. ##### Caroline T. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David P. 28 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely property A garage which has been converted to a two bedroom house…watch your head on sloping roof. Very comfortable with lounge and dining area and all the facilities you might require. Next to the railway line but do not be put off by this as not that many trains and the property is well insulated for noise. Eugene the owner greeted us warmly when we arrived. Only one minor comment the beside lamps are not bright enough to read by. My first experience of an air b and b encourages me to try others. ##### David P. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Monica Beishuizen 7 Jan 2019 #### Nice house in a beautiful surrounding The house was large with nice furniture, upstairs the roof was on a steep angle, so you can’t walk upstraight. When you arrive and read the book with instructions there was a list with a lot of do’s en mostly dont’s. It was a bit overwhelming and it does not feel welcome.Wifi is limited. We were not satisfied about the cleaning of the house. You can hardly hear the trains. But in total it was a nice stay. ##### Monica Beishuizen Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Michael T. 26 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Rural and quirky. First impressions upon arrival were very good. The accommodation was easy to gain access to, extremely well equipped and had adequate space for our party of 3 adults. Eugene, the host, greeted me while emptying the car and recommended a few things to do in the area, which were gratefully received. We knew there was a railway very nearby, which, being light sleepers, concerned us. However, we had been reassured by the description of the property; “a quiet cottage”, “a peaceful night’s sleep is guaranteed” and “trains are infrequent”. Unfortunately, we didn’t find this to be the case. During our 3 night weekend stay, trains were speeding past every 20 minutes on average, from as early as 5:25am and as late as 11:25pm. Plus, there is frequent passenger aircraft noise, probably due to the proximity of Gatwick. Ear plugs weren’t even enough to secure a full night of undisturbed sleep. On a plus side, we visited some beautiful places in the East Sussex countryside and coastline. The views from Ditchling Beacon (recommended by Eugene) were fabulous! ##### Michael T. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fiona O. 7 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful and quirky property Directions from host were spot on. We were attending an opera at Glyndebourne and the location of the property was about a 20 minute drive away. Property was easy to access and remarkably clean, with a well-equipped open plan kitchen and dining area. Living room was ideally set up and comfortable. The upstairs bedrooms comprised one double bedroom and another bedroom with one twin room. The beds were incredibly comfortable. Only a few minor points that do need mentioning: 1) There is only a toilet upstairs, 2) The beds are quite small. If you are a tall person, it might only be suitable for a few days. 3) The upstairs has sloping rooves on the landing and in the bedrooms. Again, if you ars tall you will have to stoop to avoid hitting your head. We had to upstairs and it has caused a few back problems since coming home. 4) There are a lot of stairs in the property, between rooms, and it is not ideal for those with mobility issues. These are not major criticisms and should not preclude you from staying here. These points are only intended to make future guests aware of the layout of the property to avoid any surprises. As an overall holiday let, I would give it 4 out of 5 ##### Fiona O.
