Cozy historical cottage on edge of Ashdown Forest
This Grade 2 listed cottage has been restored recently to a high standard, having exchanged hands for the first time in 300 years! Set on the edge of the Ashdown forest this cottage is now a cozy, country retreat with a secure garden at the back and a small paddock and river belonging to the cottage. Look out for the carvings on the fireplace dating back over 200 years but also enjoy the brand new kitchen and fab huge shower! The cottage has 3 bedrooms, one which has a king size bed, that can be converted in to 2 singles, with a trundle bed as well. The second bedroom has a standard double and the third has a single. This is a really old cottage so the stairs are quite steep and the house is on 3 floors. There is plenty parking outside. We live about 4 miles away so are on hand if you need but the cottage will be all yours for your stay. The cottage is on the edge of the Ashdown Forest. It is a fantastic place to walk, run and cycle. At the top of the forest you will have views of the North and South Downs and on a clear day you can see the sea beyond. The forest is famous for winnie the pooh and you can walk to Pooh bridge from the cottage along footpaths. You have the town of Crowborough close by with shops, cafes and a railway station which will take you to London in under an hour. There is also the town of Tunbridge Wells under 10 miles away. Also a must see is Hever castle, Penshurst Place and Wakehurst Place. The town of Brighton is just about 1 hour away and the beach is the same distance. There are some fab country pubs with great local food too. You will need a car to get to the cottage unless you are willing to load your bike up on the train! The nearest station is Crowborough which has a train service to London. The area is great to visit any time of year. From spring lambs to visit, to summer open gardens, the colours of autumn or a base to visit the Christmas lights in London.
