Overview
Property code: OC-49942

Enjoy a cosy getaway with the two you love most – your partner and your pup – at this delightful cottage. The former piggery sleeps two, creating the perfect romantic escape in the lush Kent countryside. Meander the many footpaths and cycle routes on the doorstep, play fetch in the extensive garden, and toast marshmallows around the fire pit as the sun sets.

 

Embrace studio-style living at this idyllic cottage, which by day is a great spot to unwind and enjoy the view and has a King size bed. Exposed wooden beams and a striking brick feature open fire paired with the modest decor, create a contemporary countryside aesthetic that’s as welcoming as it is stylish. Savour an intimate dinner for two (or three, if you count Fido!) at the dining table or outside in the garden, which is shared with the owner’s property.

 

Thanks to its setting in the beautiful High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and just 20 miles from the Kent Downs, you and your faithful hound will have a ball exploring the countryside, with ancient routeways, wooded rolling hills, and historic castles to discover. Visit Bodiam Castle (10 miles), where your dog can have a stroll around the grounds, or Rye Harbour Nature Reserve and Camber Castle (9.5 miles). Camber Sands beach (11 miles) is home to the only sand dunes in East Sussex, perfect for tiring out an energetic pup!

THIS IS NOT A COMPLAINT - we are mid-eighties and slow-moving. I realised that I couldn't clean the cottage with my husband and little dog under my feet so I took them home mid-morning. I returned and got on with the cleaning up after our stay and was finished by about 2.30. The owner was no longer at home and I panicked about the key because I couRead moreldn't remember how to work the key-box. I regret that I had to leave the door closed but unlocked, and the key prominently on show in the room. I had no paper to leave a message. It was an ideal stay for us, only 40 minutes from home.

The cottage was absolutely perfect and I loved it! I really appreciated the treats and supplies which Jo left; so kind and thoughtful. The dcor in the cottage is tasteful, using natural materials which made it feel very relaxing, calm, peaceful and cosy. A real bolthole from the world and perfectly situated for visiting lots of interesting places iRead morencluding Rye, Tenterden, Sissinghurst, Bodiam and Hastings. I didn't get the chance to do any walking but I would imagine local walks would be good. Hide

Very quiet, Ideal for a base. A lot of pot holes in the area. Unfortunately managed to get a damaged tyre which meant we were without a car for nearly two days. We noticed that there were signs of the holes being marked for repair when we were leaving! Limited things to do locally so need to be able to get about. Rye is lovely and Tenterden too.
