Watch your much-loved pup discover hound dog heaven when he arrives at this sizeable retreat near Battle in Sussex. Sleeping 10 guests, the five-bedroom abode sits in substantial, enclosed, lawned gardens where he can race about to his heart’s content. Return from long walks across the undulating High Weald to play tournaments in the games room or unwind by the open fire or wood burner with your pet close by.

Enter via the hall, where you can hang dog leads and coats. Head through to the kitchen/diner to prepare the next meal while your contented canine warms his paws beside the crackling open fire. Call him through to the lounge/diner with you to keep you company as you watch the Smart TV, play games or take in the views in the comforting glow of the wood burner. The games room and family shower room are also downstairs. Bid your four-legged friend goodnight then climb the stairs to the first floor of the house. Here you will find three king-size bedrooms, together with a super-king-size and a twin. One of the king-size rooms has lift access and an en-suite shower room. There are also two family bathrooms up here. Soak up the sunshine out in the garden as you gaze out across your surroundings towards Battle Abbey. Throw a ball for your chum then make your way to one of the two balconies for a glass of wine as the sun goes down. There is parking here for six cars.

Caldbec House was a perfect house for the family to use between Christmas and January. We loved the large rooms, fireplaces and house amenities such as washing machine, coffee machine etc.

Fascinating property filled with interesting art and artefacts. Large dining area and comfortable lounge. The lounge TV is small for the size of room. Excellent games room, especially for table tennis and online gaming. Kitchen area is proportionally small, especially for a foody family. Hidden step on upstairs landing could be better lit or definRead moreed. Property was warm, spacious with plenty of hot water. Hide

The "cottage" ( a Historic family home!) was well equipped, very clean and spacious with a lovely rear garden ideal also for dogs and with a view of Battle Abbey! Reasonable provision for a disabled person dependant upon the disability. A most useful lift to a spacious first floor bedroom. Enough bedrooms to nicely cater for our party of nine.
