This cosy cottage is in an idyllic location and ideally suited for walkers and couples wanting to explore the abundance of historic towns and Sussex coastline, just a short distance away.

Ideally situated on the edge of the pretty Kent village of Lamberhurst, this cute cottage surrounded by rolling green countryside is the perfect romantic retreat for two. Located in the owner’s grounds, it sleeps two people in one bedroom and welcomes one canine companion, making it the ideal accommodation choice for couples who want to escape the city and explore the peaceful Kent and Sussex countryside.

Step inside and you’ll find yourself in a welcoming hallway that leads to a bright and airy living room/kitchen/diner. The chic, compact kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare a romantic meal for two. Eat in the intimate dining area or step outside, light up the charcoal BBQ and dine alfresco in the garden. The country views from the garden are simply fabulous. After dinner, snuggle up on the sofa in the living area and catch up on your favourite TV shows before retiring to the lovely bedroom for a peaceful night’s sleep. In the morning, peek out of the bedroom window and you’ll be met with gorgeous country views.

Take a romantic stroll around the wooded estate at Scotney Castle (2.5 miles). There you’ll find a wonderful garden with a view of a 14th-century moated castle and a Victorian country mansion. The central feature is the fairy-tale ruin of Old Scotney Castle, which sits on an island on a small lake. There’s also a nice tearoom in a converted coach house. Alternatively, take a trip to the historic spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells (7.5 miles). There you can go shopping in the wonderfully classy Pantiles, enjoy lunch in a cool eatery, or take a tour of the area’s wineries.

Great location. The area is Mother Nature at her best, so many beautiful places to visit. The cottage is lovely and was made very welcome. Any questions answered straight away, and whilst you are very close to the main house, you feel no intrusion. Would recommend, especially for dog owners.

Cottage was excellent, certainly value for money , lovely quite countryside, owls around at night calling, open fields too rear with views over countryside. Local village around a mile away, only minus are the single track roads to property, which were not helped with a local road being closed, so vehicles used the single lane roads as a bypass. SoRead moreme of the van drivers not very polite and not very thoughtful when trying too pass on the narrow road, expected you to give way. But well worth it. Hide

The cottage was very warm and comfortable, quiet and peaceful. There is no mobile signal and the Wi-Fi/internet is very spasmodic so don't expect to watch a film on your iPad. The area is lovely with lots of walks from your doorstep. Scotney Castle & gardens walk from cottage, is only about 4 miles round trip and a very worthwhile visit.

This is a quiet and rural cottage. Located near a public footpath is it a 20 minute walk to the pubs and shop in Lamberhurst.
