The Old Stables is set in a lovely area. I only wish we'd had more time to look around. It was a great place to stay before flying out of Gatwick Airport.

Fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. Beautiful building… renovated to a high, ‘modern’ standard yet still retained all its charm

The Old Stables is a perfect place to stay when visiting the area. Spotlessly clean and the hosts, Ann & Bob are just lovely. The accommodation is excellent and extremely well equipped. We stayed here for one week between a house move with a 91...

Lovely light filled apartment in a separate building equipped with everything that is needed for a longer stay. The stables are part of a larger estate, with a lovely garden and green outlook. There is also plenty of parking too. Communicating...

After navigating stairs for most of our trip, we loved having everything on the same level. Instructions were really clear and there was excellent communication. It is a beautiful area and a great base for exploring Sussex and East Sussex.

The photos do not do this property justice. It is soooooo much nicer than the photos Nice long walk to a lovely pub and shorter walk to beacon down vineyard

Everything about our stay was perfect. Very good quality items in the accommodation, and we found everything we needed. The hosts were friendly, and the location was quiet.

Ann
A beautiful, recent conversion of a previous stable block with a few quirky features. The Old Stables benefits from a semi-rural setting, within easy reach of Heathfield town centre, and is within a privately gated area. The shared patio and lovely garden are for the use of guests, as is the BBQ. The Old Stables offers the perfect place to stay for a last minute get-away or for a longer stay to enjoy all that the area has to offer.
Ann has been hosting now for over 10 years and loves welcoming new and returning guests to this beautiful part of the country.
There are numerous public footpaths within easy reach of the property for those who like walking. The Ashdown Forest is a short drive away, as are Tunbridge Wells, Eastbourne and Brighton. Mainline stations for London and the coast are within a 10-15 minute drive and the journey to London takes about an hour (the service from Frant takes 55 minutes). There are several National Trust properties close by, including Batemans, Sissinghurst Castle, Scotney Castle, Bodiam Castle and Standen House. The cottage is situated about a mile from Heathfield town centre. This is a small but well serviced town with a selection of supermarkets (Co-op, Sainsbury's, Waitrose, Tesco Express) as well as independent food shops (butcher, baker, greengrocer, Cucolo delicatessen). On Tuesdays Heathfield market also takes place where you can find fresh fish as well as a whole range of curiosities, vintage and antique items. It also holds an auction twice a month for anyone wanting to pick up an unusual bargain. In Heathfield you will also find the Heathfield Tavern for pub food, Heathes Turkish Dining, The Pink Cabbage and the Bay Tree Cafes (breakfast and lunches ), the Curry Inn and Heathfield Tandoori Indian restaurants, as well as a good selection of takeaways. Several country pubs are within a short drive from The Old Stables.
