We have been to Pickdick Stable several times and love the peace and tranquillity of the garden, the location, the cottage itself and it's proximity to Rye, Great Dixter Gardens, Charleston etc. Our hosts are friendly and the equipment is excellent.

We chose Pickdick stable after seeing so many five star reviews on the website. The cottage more than lived up to our expectations. Everything you need is there and it is very clean and comfortable and very nicely decorated. It is down the end of a country lane, very quiet and a lovely private garden to enjoy the sunsets. The friendly owners Nick and Sarah live nearby and are very willing to answer any queries and give suggestions where to go if you’re new to the area as we were. A lovely welcome pack awaited us on arrival and set the mood for our holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed our weeks stay and would recommend this cottage to anyone.
