Looking to recharge your batteries and slip away to a quiet corner of the countryside? This charming home right on the banks of Bewl Water is the perfect hideaway for two. With breathtaking views across the water and a gorgeous garden from which to take it all in, we can't think of anything better than spending a few days here, listening to the birdsong and unwinding in the fresh air. A soak in the rolltop bath upstairs is the perfect way to start the morning – and there's nothing better than waking up to the quintessential Sussex views from the Juliette balcony. After a delicious breakfast, lace up your walking shoes and stroll the thirteen-mile trail around Bewl, or for a more relaxed pace, grab a good book and retreat to the bench at the water's edge. In the evenings, dine under the scented boughs of wisteria on the patio, savouring a glass of wine as the stars pop out. Head inside when the chill sets in and fire up the log-burner, ending the night with a Netflix film snuggled up on the squishy leather sofa. When you're ready to pick up the pace, explore the quaint pubs, charming cafes... and vintage antique shops in nearby Wadhurst and Ticehurst – both a ten-minute drive away – or set off and visit the numerous castles and National Trust properties in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Home truths
Public transport is very limited in this area, so we recommend bringing a car – there's on-site parking next to the home
The nearest towns are each around a ten-minute drive away, so you won't be able to walk to the shops or pubs
You're welcome to use the owner's gas barbecue for alfresco dining – they live next door, but you'll have plenty of privacy
The hosts leave a free supply of wood for the woodstove
Wifi can be a bit patchy in the countryside

About The High Weald
The fourth largest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in England and Wales, it’s one of our most ancient landscapes and covers an area of nearly 1,500 square kilometres across Kent, East Sussex, West Sussex and Surrey.
