Set amongst a Medieval farmstead, this gorgeous barn conversion in the heart of the Sussex Weald is the perfect escape. Relax on your private, south-facing terrace, spot the local wildlife, or enjoy an alfresco lunch. Inside, your hosts have done a fabulous job restoring this home whilst maintaining its original integrity. We love the exposed old brick walls and the lofty vaulted ceilings in the huge open-plan living space. When the Sussex evenings turn chilly, light the log burner, cosy up on the feather-filled sofa and enjoy a movie on the 65 inch Smart TV. Our absolute favourite feature here, though, is the sumptuous bedroom with its dramatic, dark panelled walls and super comfy natural linens. Ideally located and close to the vibrant towns and picturesque villages of Sussex and the South Downs, this is the perfect rural retreat for those wanting to explore all that the area has to offer.

About Royal Tunbridge Wells
Tunbridge Wells once had a reputation for being a bit stuffy. Happily, what was caused by a few grumpy letters to a newspaper nearly a century ago has been put behind it. A vibrant, affluent town, it’s far from being stuck in the past. As well as the more modern shopping precinct at the top end of town, if you take a walk along its historic colonnade – The Pantiles...
