This peaceful retreat for two is nestled in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, near the village of Broad Oak and a short drive from the medieval town of Rye, Battle and the beautiful beach of Camber Sands.

Double doors open into a hallway and open plan living area. The kitchen with dining-area has all you need to create your favourite holiday meals. There is a large corner sofa, perfect for snuggling up and watching your favourite films together on the Smart TV.

When the land of nod calls, head upstairs to a delightful bedroom with plenty of space to store belongings, sloping ceilings and dual-aspect windows where you can take in the countryside views.

Outside there is a private enclosed paddock with a picnic table, a lovely spot to enjoy sundown drinks or exercise your dog. The surrounding fields are a haven for wildlife, frequently visited by a family of badgers, foxes, many birds, rabbits and deer.

The owners' horses can often be seen in the stables or grazing in the fields. The owners live next door if you need anything and Pixie, their gorgeous friendly dog, may pop along to say hello.

This area of East Sussex is a haven for walkers with a plethora of footpaths to enjoy. Walk down the drive and along the road and you are straight into Beckley woods, a 145 hectare mixed woodland plantation.

Nearby to The Little Lodge is Darjeeling Lodge (5598), this property sleeps four. These properties can be booked together if you require additional accommodation for family and friends.

The village of Broad Oak has a pub, bakers, convenience store and local brewery.

Take a ride on the Rother Vally Railway and catch the train to Bodiam Castle or perhaps boating along the River Rother from the Lime Wharf Cafe.

Visit the town of Battle, famous for its Norman Abbey. It has several independent shops, tea rooms and pubs. There is also a mainline station which connects to London and the coast at Hastings.

Enjoy some retail therapy at Royal Tunbridge Wells with its super shopping complex. There is also the old town and the Pantiles to wander through, known for its Chalybeate spring water.

If you fancy a day at the coast, then there is Camber with its golden beach and sand dunes or Winchelsea, Hastings, Pevensey Bay or Eastbourne.
