Ellenhall

Our party of 6 adults, 1 child and a dog had a wonderful time at Ellenhall. The house is a delight to stay in. The kitchen is very well stocked and makes a charming setting for family meals. The lounge, snug and bedrooms are all beautifylly decorated, comfortable and spotlessly clean. The extensive garden and grounds are a delight to explore. ...

A lovely stay. By far the best specced out rental we've stayed at - from the books and games to the kitchen and tech, as well as beautiful grounds and furnishings. Everything you could want from a letting of this sort. A heads-up to any future guests, as the cottage sits in the lowest point of the surrounding countryside we had no mobile phone reception - which wasn't a bad thing ...and the wifi coverage in the property was excellent. But it maybe useful to prepare for that if you need to stay in contact with the real world....

Beautiful property with everything we needed and more. We stayed with two dogs, and they absolutely loved the private field opposite the cottage, which was perfect for early morning walks. The warm outdoor dog shower at the front of the house was a real highlight — especially after muddy adventures — and was an absolute lifesaver. The kitchen and dining area were fantastic and fully equipped with everything we could possibly need (special mention to the toaster, which was impressively speedy!). The dining table overlooks the garden and stream, creating a lovely setting for meals. The living room was incredibly cosy; we enjoyed lighting the fire each evening and spending time together playing board games as a family. We particularly loved the dandelion artwork. We also made good use of the snug during the day to relax and watch TV. The bedrooms were clean, cosy, and very comfortable. A lovely touch was the lower-than-average windows, which meant you could enjoy the views even while lying in bed. The shower in the master bedroom deserves a special mention — easily the best shower we have ever used, powerful and wonderfully luxurious. We visited both The White Dog and The Cross Inn, which were recommended in the brochure, and both were cosy, welcoming, dog-friendly, and served great food — all within easy reach of the cottage. The wood-fired sauna was another standout feature and a huge hit with the whole family; we all felt incredibly relaxed and zen for hours afterwards. We highly recommend this property and are already talking about booking another stay. A truly wonderful place to relax and unwind....

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in a house that is spacious, comfortable, gorgeously decorated in English country house style and very well-equipped, including for dogs! It is beautifully set in a large garden and private woods, quiet and peaceful, with easy access to walks and places to visit such as Hastings, Rye and Battle, even London. ...

It was a privilege to stay at Ellenhall for a few days. Every room was beautiful, welcoming and comfortable. Outside, all we could hear were birds and an occasional lamb calling its mother. Heaven!
