  The Rabbit's Warren is an absolute winner and incredible value for money.

  We were looking for a place to stay near the coast while repairs were done on our boat. We also had project deadlines, so we needed a spacious place with good internet where we could park off for a week. Rabbit's Warren was absolutely perfect for our needs and it was such a lovely environment that we enjoyed every minute we spent there. The place is even better than the photos. A large featured skylight in the lounge gives it lots of light and airiness and the unit has everything you could ask for, including a beautiful, spacious kitchen, dishwasher and a combination washer/dryer, and for me, a luxurious tub, to spend a very comfortable and cozy week there. We also enjoyed use of the full service, but unpretentious, health club and punished ourselves with a couple of grueling spinning classes. My husband also surprised me on my birthday with the most fabulous massage by Elaine, whom I highly recommend for anyone who needs a little TLC. And, although we didn't use them, there's also a full service hair salon and a sports medicine therapist on the premises, so it's a nice way of booking services you might need without leaving the grounds. The area feels like it's out in the countryside, but a decent sized full service shopping center, including a large Waitrose is less than five minutes drive away. Kathryn was a wonderful host and we can't thank her enough for allowing us to stay at her beautiful place!

  The owners were very helpful and available when we called or texted them.

  The cottage was clean. The location of the cottage is within a shared area with neighbouring cottages and hot tub and a swimming pool. The cottage was very nice for a short stay however few improvements needed. - Provide guides/instructions for the property (we didn’t notice there was a freezer at the back of the kitchen counters until the end of our trip) - The heating was not working. It was very cold the first night as we only had one electric heater. After asking the owners we noticed there was a spare fan heater. - The cottage could do with a coffee table by the sofas for when you want to watch TV and eat. - Pathways to the cottage could do with some lights as it gets very dark in the evening and it is a long walk from the entrance of the property. Having to use mobile flash light can be difficult when you have bags to carry. - We were expecting there to be basics like salt/pepper/sugar/milk but none was provided given the price we paid for the stay. However basic kitchenware provided.

  A beautiful, historic and spacious house in gorgeous Sussex countryside. We stayed with several branches of our family and everyone was very comfortable. Well-equipped kitchen and bar with everything you need for a warm and welcoming family celebration (the reason we booked the house). Living room is comfortable with multiple sofas and chairs. Dining room is impressive, double-height, seating ten comfortably with a further large table nearby that could be positioned for extra guests. Plenty of room in the conservatory as well including a table which seats eight. There is even a chess table, which our son and his grandpa enjoyed very much! Games cupboard and plenty of books with local interest. A real country-house feel. Our dog was also very happy here. For the dog-owners: the garden is fenced around the boundary but the driveway entrance is not gated but anyway dogs have to be on the lead outside because of the livestock in the fields.

  Our group of 9 ladies stayed at Gildridge house for our annual weekend away and the property was perfect. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space but also plenty of communal space for us to sit and chat. The owner was incredibly helpful and accommodating, from the beautiful welcome basket through to allowing us to leave the cars at the property prior to our check in time in order for us to walk up to our pre booked wine tour at Henners Vineyard. We made great use of the pool, had a wonderful catered meal provided by Fab food for you, and enjoyed a nice (but long) walk to the local pub, The Brewers Arms in Herstmonceuax (the Sunday roast was amazing). We also visited Herstmonceux Castle, which was an absolute delight. The house itself was very well equipped, comfortable and very clean, it was everything we had hoped for and more.

  A beautiful, characterful and spacious house in a peaceful rural location, it made for a relaxing and happy holiday. Everything was maintained to a high standard and very comfortable. The pool was bigger than it looks on the photos, clean and a good temperature; we enjoyed the sauna and playing table tennis too. The kitchen was incredibly well-equipped, there were two huge fridges and a freezer for storage and the cooker was easy to use. Nearby Hailsham has a very good choice of supermarkets. The garden is large but open, so we needed to supervise our dog when outside and keep him on a lead when the cattle were in the field next door, but there were some good walks locally and within a short drive. Highly recommend.
