The cottage was really easy to locate on arrival from the station. The bed was very comfortable and the central heating was very easy to handle for a perfect night's sleep.

The cottage is beautiful. Super comfortable and homely, with plenty of space for two small families. All bedrooms were a great size and thr kitchen well equiped to cook from home, although the local indian was lovely to eat out at. The snug room was a bonus with the kids and offered lots of games to try out. The owners were super helpful throughoutRead more our stay and departure. The neighbours were also kind and provided some great local recommendations to try. I'd love to go back in the summer. Hide

Very cosy and spacious cottage in a cute little lane in Robertsbridge. The rooms were really comfortable and the kitchen was so well equipped. The garden was peaceful and a great sun trap into the evening. Parking was tricky but the main road always had spaces. Highly recommend the local Indian restaurant in the high street!

We had an amazing Christmas at Cricket Cottage. The house was beautifully kept, very clean, child friendly and had everything we could have ever needed! The welcome hamper and logs were such a nice touch. We could not fault this cottage at all.

Lovely stay in this cosy, well equipped cottage, especially welcome during some very wet Nov days.. Very convenient for the village pub, bakery and Indian restaurant - all within walking distance. Good location for exploring the East Sussex towns. Very helpful owner. As noted in other comments, the cottage is on a narrow road and parking outside thRead moree house is not always possible. Therefore luggage had to be wheeled down the road - a minor issue for us but a note in the details might be helpful. Hide

Cottage was very well placed in a lovely historic village. Very handy for food shopping and The New Spice Indian was excellent. Cottage is in a very narrow lane and parking can be difficult.
