Overlooking the stunning 14th-century Bodiam Castle is this pretty, single-level holiday cottage, ideal for couples looking for a quiet and serene location to relax. Enjoy the walk through the trees to the spectacular castle, which is just 0.5 miles away, with the only access being across the moat by bridge. Hastings, the town at which William the Conqueror stopped to battle King Harold in 1066, is 14 miles by car, and Senlac Hill, the site where Harold was defeated, is just 10 miles away. To take in more of this beautiful landscape, enjoy a steam train ride along the Kent and East Sussex line, with Bodiam Station just 0.5 miles away.

Arriving back at the cottage, three steps lead up the garden path and you’ll access through a side door into the kitchen/dining room, home to everything you need to create a delicious meal for two. After you’ve eaten and discussed the day, retire to the cosy sitting room and curl up on the cushy seating watching a TV show or a DVD. When it’s time to recharge the batteries, the bedroom contains twin beds and gorgeous views of the Sussex countryside from beyond the garden. The ground-floor bathroom completes this beautiful property.

The outside can be accessed via the French windows in the sitting room, where you can enjoy breakfast on the patio, whilst taking in breathtaking views of the hillside.

In general very good. Lack of accessable sockets in bedroom and living room meant having to charge phone and iPad on kitchen worktop, annoying!

We had a very enjoyable week at Jessie's place - helped by wonderful weather which is not under Original Cottages control! However the cottage was very comfortable, clean, warm, well equipped and in a brilliant location for exploring the area, which is full of interest.

You failed to tell the owners that I had rented the property. Luckily they were in, and were not using the cottage but it was a bit embarrassing for both of us and a hassle as they had to unexpectedly change the beds etc.

The accomodation was previously the annexe for the owners parents it was cosy and had wonderful views across a vineyard to Bodiam station and we could watch the steam trains coming and going. Everything was provided and the owner leaves visitors tea milk and yummy cakes which is a nice touch. It was right where I wanted to be and I was able to reviRead moresit all my childhood memories when I was growing up just a few miles from Bodiam. We are hopefully returning in Oct as we loved staying there and the owners were so nice Hide

The cottage was in a perfect location for the activities I had planned. Pleasant comfortable accommodation set in a beautiful garden with a lovely view. Very friendly and helpful owners. I have used Original Cottages for some time and I have always been happy with my holiday. This time I had a bonus of beautiful weather!
