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...

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
