Whisk your special someone away to this quaint country cottage, sitting next to the owner’s home on the edge of the village of Hellingly in the Sussex countryside – just 3 miles from the town of Heathfield. Sleeping two people in one bedroom, it’s perfect for couples who are in search of a peaceful rural retreat to call home while exploring the glorious countryside of East Sussex together. Set off along the Cuckoo Trail from Hellingly (0.5 miles), a 14-mile traffic-free path that follows the old Cuckoo Line railway beneath Victorian brick arch bridges. Or head into Eastbourne (9 miles) to stroll hand in hand along the seafront. Further afield, make a beeline for Battle (12 miles) to walk the battlefield where King Harold is said to have fallen in 1066.
Take a moment to appreciate the quirky dragon statue perched on the roof of your country hideaway, and step inside. You’ll find a bright, charming space with boho-chic design touches, where the clever layout allows living, cooking and dining areas to effortlessly flow together. Whip up your favourite dishes in the country-style kitchen area, and then share them at the quaint table for two. Afterwards, crack open a bottle of something fizzy and snuggle up on the sofa for movie night on the Smart TV. When the day is done, retreat to the lovely double bedroom with its sweet, stylish bedstead for a peaceful night’s sleep. A sleek en-suite shower room completes the layout.
Outside, you’ll find a pretty enclosed garden with a paved patio – the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee or a glass of something cool and crisp with your special someone. On warm summer evenings, fire up the charcoal BBQ and share a fun al fresco feast. Private parking is available for one car.
