The ground floor has beautiful flagstone flooring throughout. The sitting room exudes warmth and character with original oak beams, thoughtful traditional furnishings and soft, muted Farrow and Ball tones. A wood-burning stove sits in an exposed brick fireplace and hearth, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere in the cooler months.Through to the country-style kitchen and dining room with painted cabinetry, brass fixtures, oak worktops and a deep Belfast sink with a view of the garden. Upstairs, you'll find two charming bedrooms; a double and a twin and the bathroom with a bath and overhead shower.
The cottage is ideally located for some of the best cycling routes in the High Weald and is only a 15 minute walk from Robertsbridge station where trains run directly to London Charing Cross in just over an hour.
