The Brickhouse, an idyllic cottage in wine country

The Brickhouse is an idyllic cottage & charming garden set in breathtaking countryside in the golden triangle of 3 award winning vineyards Gusbourne, Oxney & Chapel Down & between the charming villages of Stone & Appledore. Ancient Rye with its boutiques and restaurants, pretty market town Tenterden & Camber Sands are a 10 minute drive, Dungeness & Hastings within half an hour.

After a tour of the award winning wine estates, a walk in the bluebell woods, a visit to the charming local pub, a day at the beach, or an afternoon taking in the delights of Rye, make yourself a coffee from the Harrods coffee machine, cosy up in front of the woodburner with a book, a game from the compendium, a classic film, or listen to the vintage record player. Then climb the stairs to the stunning antique bed for a super relaxed night’s sleep or soak in the original Victorian roll top bath. Outside a large garden with table and chairs by the pond is perfect for enjoying a glass of wine, afternoon tea or just watching the butterflies and birds. The whole cottage is yours. You're welcome to use the garden next to the Georgian barn - go through the wooden gate diagonally opposite the cottage front door to the right (as you look out) and you'll find the garden. Go along the brick path through the double flower border and you'll reach a table and chairs next to the large pond with waterlilies.
