The South East England / Sussex region
East Sussex has more woodland than any other county, making it a wonderful place to explore. There are plenty of tiny Saxon flintstone churches and timbered country pubs dotted throughout the picturesque villages nestling at the foot of the South downs. Castles, beautiful gardens, National Trust properties, family attractions and of course, the wonderful Ashdown Forest - ideal for walking, horse riding and cycling - are all to be found in this lovely county.
Rye area
Located in peace and tranquility yet only 1 mile from the famous Cinque Port town of Rye, which is steeped in history with cobbled streets where there are many antique shops, bookshops, tea-rooms, restaurants and pubs. From the upper windows there are views over the Romney Marsh to the sea. This is an ideal area for walkers with footpaths leading from close to the house which follows the Military Canal then across the fields from which there are fabulous views, to local pubs at Playden - the Playden Oasts and the Peace & Plenty.
How to get there
Gatwick, London is around one and a half hours drive away and offers many domestic and international flights at very reasonable prices. Regular ferries run from the continent to Dover, less than an hour drive away.
