Boasting an extensive garden that’s perfect for little paws, this homely hideaway makes a wonderful base for families and friends to enjoy a peaceful countryside getaway, a stick’s throw from Hastings.
Wipe muddy boots and paws in the entrance hallway before leading the way through to the characterful kitchen/diner that’s brimming with rustic touches, including exposed brickwork and wooden beams. Follow the warmth of the roaring wood burner into the cosy, light-filled lounge to relax weary walking muscles as your pup snoozes in the sunny spots from the picture windows. Wash off a long day on the local trails in the contemporary shower room on this level, or the family bathroom upstairs, before retiring to any of the three cheery bedrooms on the first floor; there are two doubles and a single on offer. From sunrise to sunset, the enclosed garden with a patio, large lawn and a beautiful array of mature plants is a haven of tranquillity, boasting plenty of space to dine alfresco whilst your four-legged friends have a run around. Private parking is available for two cars.
The historic town of Hastings (4.5 miles) is a haven for four-legged friends, home to the idyllic Alexandra Park, a 2.5-mile-long stretch of greenery that lies in a valley, with formal gardens and a wild wooded section to explore. Hastings Country Park, 3.5 miles away, is a great place for dog walking, with a nature reserve and plenty of wildlife to spot along the way. Take the lead to Battle Great Wood, 6.5 miles away, where you can find plenty of sticks to fetch while walking amongst the ancient trees; keep your eyes peeled for a variety of wildlife, including the odd deer. The sandy shores of Hastings Beach and Pevensey Bay can both be reached within 16.5 miles.
