About this property
Character Beamed Country Retreat with self check in/out in historic 1066 country
With self check in and check out and situated in the owners’ stunning 2 acre grounds which includes an orchard that guests can enjoy on their own, this attractive beamed, spacious detached character property is perfect for a relaxing break. The property is accessed via its own external oak open tread stairs. We have fibre broadband with the Little Brook WiFi router connected directly to it. It is wonderfully finished with a recently refurbished balcony off the living area affording countryside views and conveniently set back from the A28. There are many country walks directly from the property, several fine pubs are within a 5 - 15 minute drive and beaches are around a 20 minute drive away. Around 20 minutes to Battle, with its famous battlefield and abbey, built to commemorate the Battle of Hastings in 1066. Relive one of the most famous days in history, and join the 1066 walk. Take a trip on the Kent and East Sussex Steam Railway from Tenterden, also known as ’The Jewel of the Weald’, through the Rother Levels to Bodiam, one of the most evocative moated castles (National Trust), built in 1385. Discover the one time coastal smuggling town of Hastings and medieval Cinque Port town of Rye just 8 miles away with its cobbled streets. Picturesque sand dunes and interesting wildlife can be explored at Camber Sands around 30 minutes away.

About the host
Hosted by Janet and Grant

We are Grant and Janet and have lived in the area for over 30 years. We fell in love with our property and moved here 15 years ago.
Little Brook is in the beautiful grounds that Janet has spent 15 years cultivating and is opposite our main house. We have been renting Little Brook to holiday guests for over 10 years.

Why they chose this property
We decided to let Little Brook so holiday guests could enjoy the location as much as we do. It is centrally placed for Rye, Hastings, Battle and Tenterden. There is so much to do and see in the area, even we haven't managed to see everything!
What makes this property unique
Little Brook has unique beamed 1066 charm and character. There are lovely countryside views many walks directly from the property. The property is conveniently located on the A28 and is only a 20 minutes drive from the historic citadel town of Rye with its cobbled streets and ancient buildings. There are fine pubs all within a 10 - 20 minute drive and beaches including the world famous Camber Sands are within a 20 - 30 minute drive. Historic 1066 country waits to be explored including Battle, Hastings and the ancient Cinque Port town of Rye with its plethora of cobbled streets. Also visit Bodiam, Sissinghurst Gardens, Great Dixter and Batemans. Take a trip on the Kent and East Sussex Railway, or why not fly to Le Touquet in France for the day from Lydd Airport.
