A charming cottage in a great location
Bell cottage was a great place to stay in Alfriston, right in the centre of the village. It had a little garden at the back which was private. It was tastefully furnished and the bathroom was modern and the shower worked well. It was nice to come in and have a little welcome basket of bread, butter, coffee and some milk in the fridge. It was the perfect place for a holiday, we loved it.

The cottage was really peaceful
Lovely comfortable beds & reliable WIFI for WFH. We have dust allergies and were not affected staying here as no carpets etc. My wife has mobility issues but stairs nice & wide so no problems using them. Good pub nearby (Smugglers) with large & partially covered beer garden but the garden @the cottage was really peaceful to sit in. Alfriston is a very friendly place.
