Lovely Stay

We found the cottage looking to stay in the vague area. It was superbly located for Battle and lots of other brilliant half term activities such as Bewl Water, Bedgebury or Herstmonceux science museum. The cottage was quiet, clean and had everything we needed. It was all very comfortable and we’d certainly visit again if we found ourselves in the area.

Wonderful!

We've just returned from a weekend stay at The Parlour in Robertsbridge. From the moment we stepped through the door, we felt relaxed and chilled. The accommodation is really lovely, light and bright, very comfortable and very well appointed, with a private garden overlooking a field. The Parlour is well positioned with lots of really lovely places to visit close by. My daughter had a brilliant time at Go Ape at Bedgebury.

Lovely stay at 'The Parlour'

We had a very pleasant stay at 'The Parlour' in Robertsbridge for a few days at the end of July 2023 whilst visiting family who lived locally. The accommodation was very nice with lovely views of the countryside. The beds were very comfy and there was ample parking outside. We briefly met Louise (one of the hosts) and she was very welcoming. We would not hesitate to stay here again when we visit family in the near future. Thanks so much again to Louise and Graham.

Great location and lovely accommodation

The Parlour was in a great location for numerous walks and convenient for Robertsbridge. Using the road parallel to the “main” road avoided all the traffic for a safe route into town. Very unusual local pub (Ostrich) which served great food. The accommodation was perfect for us as we were 2 couples and we wanted to cook and eat mainly there. We spent New Years Eve there and cooked a 3 course meal for 4 quite easily. Comfy beds and a great layout. We did find it a bit warm, even with the heating off, but I’m sure nobody minds that. Overall a great break 😊👍

Fantastic stay with fabulous views

Just wonderful. The cottage was spacious and comfortable - a lovely large walk-in shower, large beds with memory foam mattresses, so really comfortable. Underfloor heating kept the cottage at the right temperature so you didn't feel the cold. Kitchen had an induction cooker which was great to cook on. I couldn't complain about anything. Louise, the owner was very happy to chat away with you and talk about the area, about the farm and her horses. A lovely person. I could move it quite happily as if it was my own home! That says it all really. We will come back as this is a glorious part of the English countryside.

Fabulous location

Great location for touring and eating out. Owner super responsive to emails before arrival. Rental clean, and well stocked kitchen and well supplied linens/towels. For a week long stay, frig very small. No freezer. Did not have super views from the Parlour - looked out at driveway/ hedge and Owners house. Small sitting out garden area, enclosed on all sides - no view. View when you walked around owners garden magnificent. Would recommend a couple of comfortable loungers for garden and non-slip mats for showers. We are seniors and one of us had a fall. But a great rental and with glorious weather had an excellent stay and would recommend.

Schönes gemütliches Cottage im Grünen

Wir hatten einen schönen Aufenthalt auf der Willow Farm. Die Lage ist gut, innerhalb von 30-45 Minuten erreicht man u.a. Eastbourne, Hastings, Rye. Ebenso gibts im direkten Umkreis eine Menge Castles und Gärten. Sogar eine Dampfeisenbahn fährt ein paar Kilometer weiter. Louise ist eine sehr nette Gastgeberin, die auch gerne Tipps gibt. Das Cottage ist gut ausgestattet, eine schöne Küche mit allem was man benötigt. Dazu zwei große Schlafzimmer mit wirklich bequemen Betten. Außerdem ist - soweit ich das beurteilen kann - barrierefrei.
