We had the most wonderful time at Heringaud. Such a tranquil place, in the heart of the countryside and perfect for a short break or longer peaceful holiday. The owners were very friendly and happy to show us round and the property was perfect for us. Thank you!...

Our break at Heringaud Barn was a wonderfully peaceful stay. Immaculately clean, warm and welcoming. Equipped with everything you could need and located in the centre of this quiet and historical village. The only traffic were the walkers en route of the many nearby trails. Our dog loved the large enclosed paddock for a sniff or ball game - perfect. And the WiFi was super fast and efficient which was a definite bonus. Can highly recommend and very much hope to return soon....

Heringaud Barn was a delightful property. The cleanliness was exceptional. The location of the barn was so peaceful. We explored the area and it's amazing dog walks too. We would definitely recommend Heringaud Barn for countryside lovers. Equally, its location meant it was not too far away from lovely Alfriston and Lewes etc!...

Heringaud Barn was a perfect place for our holiday, in a wonderful setting, with excellent and varied walks in all directions. To be in such a secluded setting yet in walking distance of the sea, Alfriston and only a few minutes from a regular bus service made it an ideal base. It's thoughtfully furnished and laid out, and the small kitchen was better than expected. We enjoyed a tour of the historic site given by the owner. ...

Our second visit. The most beautiful peaceful spot far away from the madding crowd (although only a 5 minute drive to the main road!). Hope to return again!
