Cottage to rent in Bodle Street Green, East Sussex

Accommodation details

When you want an escape to somewhere completely different, this modern, barn-style property offers the chance to de-stress and recharge in the glorious Sussex countryside. The panoramic views really are something else. You also have walks from your front door, a great pub nearby and the opportunity for days at the beach or visiting cultural attractions.

Inside, the warm tones and textures of timber and brickwork will make you feel cosseted, with a wood burner for wintry nights by the fire and space to dine outside in the summer. Sleeping eight in four bedrooms, it's a wonderful choice for a group of friends or an extended family getting together for a special holiday.

The architecture of this wonderful holiday home is truly impressive, with a high, apex ceiling, chunky exposed beams and an almost entire wall of glass at one end maximising the incredible outlook. An enormous wood burner takes centre stage, perfect for cosy evenings with everyone piled onto the sofas or playing a board game at the table.

In the summer you can pull the doors wide open and enjoy the fresh air. The sleek kitchen at the far end offers everything necessary for catering to a large group, with an additional utility area keeping the laundry facilities conveniently separate. For a morning coffee or quick snack there's an island with a breakfast bar for four, while the dining table itself easily seats eight.

Each bedroom has a Smart TV, so if you feel like a lazy morning you can watch your favourite programmes in bed before opening the patio door and taking a cup of coffee outside. There's flexible sleeping accommodation for your group here, with two of the four super-king-size rooms capable of being set up as twins on request.

While the master bedroom has a dressing room and an en-suite shower, the others share a sleek family bathroom. There's a choice of seating areas outside, including a patio with a BBQ on which you can grill some local delicacies for a celebratory supper under the stars.
