About this property

Barley cottage ,(granarycottages) in an old converted barn Chiddingly,lewes

Tucked away down a quiet Sussex country lane, away from the noise of the A22 , but in close enough proximity to be able to explore the area with ease, although you will need a car. Renovated A a few years ago , Barley cottage has a spacious area downstairs , still retaining charm and old beams of its past life as a grain store to the farm. Tastefully converted into a 2 bedrooms with en suite and a more open plan layout downstairs. Under floor heating and Wi-Fi available, this cottage also boasts a separate fridge and freezer , dishwasher and washing machine. A small outside garden to the front and courtyard to the rear.
Many footpaths are almost on the doorstep , including the Weald way and the Vanguards way. Pubs are plentiful and a short distance , fresh local produce can be bought at either the local village shop in Muddles Green or at a variety of farm shops close by.
The South downs are about 15 minutes drive from the cottage , and Eastbourne is 25 minutes. We also live close to Ashdown Forest , and many national trust properties including Burling Gap and Seven Sisters , Sissinghurst castle and Batemans.

The property was beautiful, especially if you like the English countryside! Lovely hosts, very helpful. One note for all of the properties we visited would be to have grab-bar in shower and/or tub. Really enjoyed my stay! Diane, New Jersey

Lovely Cottage
Feels like a very recent barn conversion, but the ratings show it to be older than it looks. A really great layout for small family reunions, having open spaces and quiet nooks for personal chats. Both bedrooms are ensuite. Big, well-equipped kitchen. Quite remote but good shopping is adequately close.

Very nice country refuge. Beautiful scenery and so peaceful. Super friendly pubs with excellent food at reasonable prices. (6 Bells and Kings Head for tons of character and great meals without chips!). Accommodation was clean, comfy and spacious.

Wonderful English cottage.
The cottage was very nice and offered everything we needed. Katie was super helpful and readily available to address any questions. At first we thought the location was isolated. But it turned out to be close to many interesting attractions and local pubs. Being from America, the roads were very narrow, which required an extra pound of caution. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to future visitors.

Good quality property in quiet country location
Spacious. Unusually has 2 lounge areas. Excellent if you want to visit north, south, east and west but you may prefer to be nearer the coast if that is your main area of interest (weather permitting)

Brilliant!
Barley Cottage is a lovely well-appointed cottage, with kind friendly helpful owners who gave us some excellent suggestions for places to go. I loved sitting in the front garden with the rose and that wonderful willow tree. And there were some great books on the bookshelves

We had a wonderful stay at Barley Cottage. It is spacious, comfortable, very well equipped and in such a quiet location. I would definitely want to stay at one of the Granary Cottages again if we returned to the area as there is still lots for us to see and do.

Excellent, quiet, country location. Very friendly owners who are readily available but not ‘in your face’. The cottage was immaculate and well appointed. Everything has been considered and we could not fault it in any way - in fact we were tempted to move in permanently!

Tranquil rural hideaway
This is a beautifully presented rural cottage. In a very quiet location, we had a great time exploring the local countryside, coast, and NT gardens. The hosts were warm and friendly, and popped in just to check we had all we needed. This is a very well equipped cottage and was spotless. It is spacious and light , and we didn't use all of the seating areas. It was a little cold to sit outside, but the secluded patio did look inviting. The cottage was very warm and cosy, and the large kitchen made eating-in very easy. Easily one of the nicest places we've ever stayed. Thank you.

Charming, comfortable and cosy.
We really enjoyed our stay in this delightful cottage which was convenient for all the sights in East Sussex. Great having 2 en-suites - which are hard to find - and flexibility with number of nights made it perfect for mum and me. Will definitely recommend to friends visiting the area.

Well renovated quiet country cottage
We wanted a quiet place to stay for 2 couples near to Lewes and this cottage is in a quiet country Lane approached via a series of twisting lanes from the main roads. There are other houses on the lane including working farms. The cottage is one of 3 conversions from the original grain store. It was spotlessly clean and well equipped and the owners, Katie and Michael were very friendly and helpful, promptly answering our questions when we had them. The cottage has 2 double bedrooms which are big enough, but not huge; comfortable beds and an en-suite shower room for each. Downstairs is open plan with a quiet corner for watching TV- we were there during the World Cup- and another comfortable sitting area at the front for those who just want to sit. The dining table was fine for the 4 of us, with space to put the foods we had bought. The fridge was quite small, but we could store other items in the freezer- we had brought some things from home to use up so it was a bit overfull at times. The garden is small but private enough to sit outside. We enjoyed the stay from where we explored the local attractions and we had good days out at Batemans and Sheffield Park and Lewes. We would return there if we wanted to come back to East Sussex.
