About this property
A beautiful detached oast house with two bedrooms and two bathrooms situated within easy reach of local amenities in a very quiet yet accessible location close to Bewl Water and Bedgebury Forest. The property has its own private garden and overlooks surrounding fields and paddocks.
Bakers Farm Oast is a beautiful, detached oast house, stunningly converted and furnished to a high standard. Peacefully located, you will find yourself tucked away from it all down a private drive, within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the Sussex/Kent border.
Located within the grounds of a 50 acre estate, the oast has its own private, spacious and lawned garden overlooking the surrounding fields and paddocks. When the sun is shining, enjoy an afternoon on the terrace, perfect for a barbecue with family or friends while taking in the peace and tranquillity surrounding you. Wildlife is abundant, so try and spot any number of animals and birds including deer, foxes, badgers, barn owls or kingfishers. Alternatively, curl up on the sofa in front of the wood burning stove with a glass of wine and a good book as the sun goes down.
Within walking distance are two country pubs, both full of character, serving lovely local food, wines and beer. There is The Bull in the hamlet of Three Leg Cross or The Bell in the village of Ticehurst, where you will also find a pop up fishmongers on Saturdays.

This beautiful little Oasthouse, is a lovely holiday cottage in a very peaceful rural setting, with nice views across the fields, where there is plenty of wild life to see. It is reached via a lovely long drive. Angela the owner is always very welcoming, kind and helpful. The furnishing is lovely and spotlessly clean, the wood fire wonderful and the kitchen is amazing and all you could wish for is there! The welcome pack is generous. It is close to some very lovely gardens too and not far from Tunbridge Wells, and a walk around Bewley Water is just a walking distance away. This was our 6th time there, so that speaks for itself. We look forward to our next time!
