Forest View Barn (20% goes to Red Cross Ukraine)

A beautifully converted barn/stable, nestled in ancient woodland, between the villages of Balcombe and Handcross (with easy access to Brighton and Gatwick). It has a spacious lounge/dining room, wc and kitchenette (containing microwave, kettle, fridge and toaster). It also has its own front door and hallway leading to a double bedroom with en-suite bathroom, walk in wardrobe and bifold doors. There are stunning views into the forest and there’s plenty of parking for several cars. The space is immaculate, newly decorated and spacious. The lounge has vaulted ceilings and contemporary furniture along with a new microwave, fridge and kitchen equipment. The bedroom, which has and en-suite bathroom and walk in wardrobe, is particularly tranquil. It has a super king bed where you can relax and enjoy the floor to ceiling view of the forest and the visiting deer. The barn is joined to our property but has its own separate front door. You will be provided with a key on arrival. The barn has a small patio area at the front, with a small table and four chairs, and another one at the back by the bifold doors. It also has a large part of our one acre garden with beautiful views of the forest (this currently isn’t fenced off but our patio area does not overlook the barn’s part of the garden). There is space for guests to park two cars on our large shared drive way. If you are flying from Gatwick you can arrange to leave your car safely with us, and we can provide lifts to the airport. We are minutes away from two stunning national trust properties and the famous Balcombe viaduct. Brighton is a 25 minutes drive away and London is 45 minutes on the train. We can provide you with recommendations for things to do in Brighton as it’s our favourite place to go. Handcross village and Balcombe village are 5 minutes drive away. Both have a pub, shops and cafe (I particularly like the Red Lion in Handcross - it does an amazing roast). Balcombe train station is a 5 minute drive from the barn which has fantastic links to London, Brighton and Gatwick. There is a small sofa bed suitable for one child. We can arrange a further blow up bed. We have a small, quiet and very friendly dog and a timid cat. You may see them around the garden.
