DoubleEnjoy precious time together at The Old Stable, a wonderful cottage for couples looking for a quiet getaway in this peaceful part of Sussex.
As you step inside the stable-door you are welcomed with exposed beams, wooden floors, and a characterful inglenook fireplace with wood-burner to snuggle in front of.
The double bedroom has beautiful 100% Egyptian cotton linen to offer that little touch of luxury and has access to the en suite shower-room. The open plan living area has been thoughtfully designed. Wake up to a morning coffee prepared with the Dolce Gusto coffee machine or cook a special meal whilst watching television or listening to your favourite tunes on Alexa. Off the kitchen is a stable-door to the patio area which has been beautifully planted to offer some privacy yet also gives the opportunity to chat to neighbouring guests. There is also an enclosed private garden for those wanting to bring their four-legged friends.
The Old Stable is in the grounds of the owners' lovely Grade II listed farmhouse and attached to three other holiday cottages: The Byre (4732), The Old Barn (4734) and The Coach House (4735), which is ideal for friends or family wishing to holiday together and still have some independence.

Two small or medium-sized well-behaved dogs are most welcome but please note that dogs must be kept on a lead when they are not in their enclosed private garden.
