A stunning one bedroom property in a great location with some fantastic views!. 2 steps to entrance.
Bathroom: Bath With Shower Over, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet. Central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking or vaping.. The Cosy Cowshed is wonderfully situated in rural East Sussex on the grounds of a charming Oast house. Boreham Street is a very friendly village with a popular local pub. The property is only a 10-minute drive from Hailsham town which has a variety of supermarkets in addition to other shops and amenities. Battle is also 10 minutes away in the other direction with its range of cafes, restaurants, and shops. The stylish lounge enjoys a wood burner and a Smart TV, with views of the English Channel around 4 miles distant. The bedroom boasts an oak-framed bed with bedside tables and a wardrobe to match. The deep mattress can be turned to provide a warm or a cool night’s sleep. In the spacious kitchen and dining area, guests will find all the appliances they need for the designated chef to rustle up some good food! Your private patio can be found adjacent to the Cowshed, just come out of the external sitting room door and the gate is on your left.The owners are easy to reach, friendly, and approachable nearby if you need any help or advice.
Situated in the Weald with easy access to Herstmonceux, Battle, Pevensey, Eastbourne, and Hastings. A short drive to the seaside and many castles to visit. Herstmonceux Castle is just a walk away. The excellent local pub is a few yards away and serves food daily. It is popular due to its award-winning nature, so it is recommended to book in advance. A local coffee shop in Herstmonceux is a firm favourite with visitors and locals alike. Lovely countryside walks including the South Downs National Park and the 1066 Country Walk (which passes right by the property). Walkers are wonderfully well catered for, with the property situated on the 1066 Country Walk. Pevensey Castle is a good morning’s walk away, across Pevensey Marshes, while towards the North East, The Ash - a highly recommended pub for great food is under a 2-hour walk, through peaceful, rolling Sussex countryside. The Cowshed is situated adjacent to bus stops for service, generally running hourly through the day (Monday to Saturday) between Hastings and Eastbourne.

Lovely indepedent accommodation for two. Spaceous rooms. Good kitchen facilities, although we didn't make extensive use of these. Constant hot water, and options for heating if needed. Owner provided a few basics to get us started, also made tourist information and local Explorer maps available. Quiet location with easy access to explore the area. We can highly recommend this cottage.

The cottage was clean and adequate for what we needed.
The cottage was clean and adequate for what we needed. The bed let the property down, small and the mattress was bouncy and not at all comfortable. No guest book with details of how to use things like heating and induction hob, and when bin day was etc. Basic kitchen items, but would have liked a wooden spoon and food tongs provided. Quiet even though on a main road, but didn't expect a fireworks display and lots of youths outside owners property at 11.30pm!! Sure it was a one off. Overall, value for money. Local pub served great food too.
