About this property
This charming detached bungalow sits in the heart of Beckley Woods, a Forestry Commission conservation site in the Sussex countryside. Quietly tucked away within half an acre of mature gardens, you only need to step outside this Beckley cottage to be at one with nature. Built in the 1900s as the woodman's home, this comfortably-furnished Beckley cottage offers visitors delightful accommodation entirely over the ground floor. There are two comfortable sitting rooms to relax in, one boasting an open fire, perfect for a cosy evening in together with a glass of wine and a good film. The well-equipped kitchen is great for cooking up a tasty supper, and in the summer, you can throw open the patio doors and dine alfresco in the large mature garden. This Beckley holiday home is a rambler’s and birdwatcher’s paradise, with lots of woodland walks right from your doorstep; sample a Sussex cream tea in one of the many tea rooms dotted along the cobbled streets of Rye or why not explore the historic town of Battle with its famous abbey and find out all about 1066? For a day on the beach, Camber Sands are a firm favourite with families or with woods, walks, and nature at your feet, you may choose to stay in the lovely garden that this Beckley cottage offers, and just listen to the birds as you drift away in the heady scent of the foliage around you.
The village of Beckley, dating back to the 1700s, sits in the Sussex countryside, and has enjoyed a varied past, including heavy involvement with ironworks and forestry
