About this property
Charming refurbished cottage, Ashdown Forest, excellent pub
White Rose Cottage is a charming self-contained cottage, adjacent to the owners' home and set in peaceful grounds of more than 9 acres, including garden, fields, paddock and a lake.
Beautifully presented throughout, White Rose Cottage is ideally located to explore Ashdown Forest and the South Downs, National Trust houses and stunning gardens, preserved railways, the historic towns of Lewes, East Grinstead and Tunbridge Wells as well as the south coast.
The accommodation is set over three levels, offering a spacious double bedroom upstairs with Sanderson bedding. There is ample space in the bedroom for a cot, which can be provided on request. On the ground floor, additional guests can be accommodated in the sitting room which is provided with a 43" internet enabled (4K) flat screen TV, DVD player and comfortable seating, including a sofa bed with deluxe mattress (small double). Also on the ground floor is a modern bathroom offering a full size bath, with shower over, glass bath screen, WC and a washbasin. The heated towel rail will keep your fluffy Egyptian cotton towels warm and dry.
Stairs lead from the ground floor up to a further room with dining table and four chairs, two armchairs and a 32" flat screen internet TV, in case sleeping guests are occupying the main sitting room. Next to the dining room/second seating area is a modern well equipped fitted kitchen with electric oven and hob, fridge with freezer box, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, kettle and a wide range of cooking utensils, crockery and glassware. Guests are welcome to eat in the garden, immediately outside the cottage's back door and to make use of the cottage's BBQ. If dining out holds more appeal, the cottage is a few minutes' walk from an award winning pub offering excellent food prepared from locally sourced ingredients; and just a short drive from several other local pubs and restaurants.
Access is provided to a utility room (5m outside the cottage) with washing machine, tumble dryer, iron, ironing board and drying racks. There is ample space to park directly outside the cottage. WiFi is available throughout the cottage and is free of charge. Oil central heating. All linen included. No smoking or pets. Bike storage available. Children's highchair and cot available on request.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Caroline Chaplin
We moved our family to this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in summer 2015 after 15 years living in London. We have settled very quickly into village life.
Why they chose this property
Our idyllic location allows daily commuting to London in just over 1 hour but a restful time at home, enjoying generally very good weather (different to my native Scotland!) and the stunning rural setting of a wooded valley.
What makes this property unique
Our home, Avenings Farm and White Rose Cottage next door are set in more than 9 acres of land, allowing us the space to grow our own fruit and vegetables and a local farmer to keep his sheep in our field. We also have a rowing boat which can be used on our small lake and an enclosed (to keep the sheep out!) 5-a-side football pitch with goals.
