Keeper's Cottage

Keeper's Cottage is on our working farm near Crowborough. You drive down a long, unmade track to get here. It's about a mile. Cars need decent ground clearance, just so you know.

It's a detached stone cottage. Sleeps four, two bedrooms, one bathroom. It's got a 3 Star rating. It's clean and works fine, but it's not a modern showhome. The style inside is quite 1970s. There's shag pile carpet, retro tiles, and things we've collected over the years. There's even an Elvis lamp.

You've got your own garden. The farm's 130 acres are there to walk around, with woods and a lake. Animals and birds roam free, so you'll see peacocks and geese about. Sometimes rheas, which are like large ostriches.

Inside, there's a woodburning stove in the living room. The dining room has high ceilings and brick walls. There's a washing machine, TV, and WiFi. Bedding and towels are included. It's advertised as having a wheelchair accessible entrance, but the track is rough and the doors are standard cottage width, so please ask if you have specific needs.

We allow two well-behaved dogs. There's parking right outside.

The nearest pub is about a mile and a quarter away. For a shop or a restaurant, you'd need to drive into Crowborough, which is three miles. It's a small town with the basics.

Royal Tunbridge Wells is about a 15 minute drive for more shops. For a day out, Ashdown Forest is close. That's the area that inspired Winnie-the-Pooh's Hundred Acre Wood. Ashdown Forest is good for walks. The National Trust and English Heritage have several properties within a 30 minute drive, like Bateman's or Sheffield Park.
