From the owner

The Blackthorn holiday cottage is a luxurious retreat for two. It is attached to the owner's home situated on the edge of Icklesham village near the ancient towns of Winchelsea and Rye with a distant view of the sea, and surrounded by beautiful AONB countryside. It has a private, south facing verandah, ideal for soaking up the ambience of this peaceful setting, and guests are welcome to use the family's heated, indoor swimming pool and outdoor hot tub throughout their stay. Home-grown seasonal vegetables, herbs and free range eggs are offered free of charge when available. However, if self-catering is not your style then there are two award winning pubs in the village, and a variety of restaurants to suit most tastes in the nearby town of Rye.
Blackthorn has a 2 x night minimum stay policy.

Further details

Strictly no pets or smoking inside the property.

The hot tub and swimming pool are for the guest's exclusive use between the hours of 8.00 AM and 8.00 PM throughout their stay. Very occasionally it may be that the owner's wish to use the facilities but this would be cleared with the current guests at the time. Please be aware that necessary maintenance may need to be carried out on the facilities and so access may be restricted to guests for several hours on a particular day, but guest would be notified a much as possible in advance.

Further details indoors

Blackthorn is situated at the end of one wing of the owner's family home but it is totally private and self contained. The property is beautifully furnished throughout. The intimate living room faces south and in the summer months the sun streams in through the full height glazed windows and door that leads out on to the private balcony. In the winter months the living room becomes a cosy bolt hole with its central heating, little wood burner and plentiful supply of logs. The luxurious bedroom features a super king-size double bed and ample wardrobe space. The zip and link bed can be split into a twin if required, but the owners would need prior instructions. The 5 star en-suite has a P bath with a shower over head, and there is also a generous wash hand-basin, as well as a low flush toilet. A large walk-in shower can also be found in the changing room of the pool building opposite Blackthorn. In the cottage bedroom are numerous walking books, maps and various board games, while in the living room there is a two draw unit full of brochures on local places of interest.

Further details outdoors

Guests are encouraged to explore the extensive grounds where they will find several benches to relax at and enjoy the view and take in the peaceful surroundings. There are also sun-loungers/deck chairs for the use of the guests, as well as a charcoal BBQ. For the more active there is a badminton net, swing ball, racquets and shuttlecocks at the summerhouse. In the cottage can also be found a set of Boule, and large 'pickup sticks'.
