Self Contained 2 bedroomed former 15th Chapel

Get away from it all with a stay at our amazing, quirky, luxury 2 bedroomed converted chapel. Sleeps up to 4 people. WITH PRETTY COURTYARD GARDEN.

With all the comforts you deserve, including a wood burning fire set in an inglenook fireplace, super comfy super king beds (the 2nd bedroom can be set up as a twin), a fully fitted kitchen and shower room.

With luxury leather sofas, Sky TV, WiFi, fluffy duvets and so much more.

A great base to explore the surrounding area, Eastbourne, Tunbridge Wells, Battle, Pevensey, the Ashdown Forest are all just a short distance. The local pub is just a short walk away,

Lovingly converted to a gorgeous, characterful, self contained retreat, next to our own home.

Very spacious unique well appointed cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed the stay in this accommodation, we were lucky enough to enjoy using the fireplace. The cottage was in a quiet village location with shops and a pub. The location allowed us to spend a day checking out both Hastings and Brighton Beaches. The cottage was exactly as presented in the advert. We would definitely recommend this property.

Glyndebourne Weekend

This is a lovely property! I agree with other reviewers that the pictures don’t quite do it justice. Beds are comfy with good quality linens. We loved the tiny secret garden which is a real sun trap! We stayed for three nights as we were attending two performances at Glyndebourne - a half hour drive away. There are some good pubs and walks in the area and we would recommend a visit to the Hidden Spring Vineyard. We would highly recommend.

Lovely venue renovated with a lot of taste and very comfortable.

We spent a couple of nights in the chapel as we were going to a performance in Glyndebourne. It was a very nice experience and we were all very happy with the location, comfort of the house. Michelle is very nice and helpful. Highly recommended.

A lovely place to stay and well placed.

A lovely place to stay and well placed for exploring the surrounding area, including easy access to Cuckoo Trail. Heathfield nearby has plenty of shops, including Sainsbury's, Waitrose, an excellent deli (Cuculo) and very good fish and chips (Nemo). The Chapel has a well equipped kitchen, good sized shower room and toilet and nice, airy bedrooms. The living room, in the main well of the building, is stunning. Michelle was very helpful whenever we had something to ask.

Fantastic escape from London in beautiful accommodation!

Thank you so much! We could not have asked for a more comfortable and beautiful place to stay for the weekend! It had everything we could ever need for a weekend and we loved the ‘secret garden’ too! Thank you! We will be recommending to our friends! Jonny and Geanie
