East Sussex Large Homes

A Good Apple

• 6 guests

• 3 bedrooms

Whatlington, Battle

Immersed in a 13-acre equestrian smallholding with horses, ducks and free-range chickens wandering the farmhouse garden, this cosy conversion is a picture of rural serenity. Whether you're curled up with a hot chocolate and a good book in hand by the wood-burning stove or are perched on a bench in the garden, you'll feel a world away from the fuss and flutter back home.

Pevensey Bay Beaut

• 8 guests

• 4 bedrooms

Pevensey Bay, Pevensey

Overlooking the beautiful Pevensey Bay Beach – this fabulous home makes for the perfect family seaside getaway. Dine alfresco or relax with a glass of Sussex wine in the swing seat as you take in the sublime views of the beach and sea.

Rye Retreat

• 6 guests

• 2 bedrooms

Udimore, East Sussex

Sea views and a hot tub — need we say more? This dog-friendly stone cottage was once part of the late comedian Spike Milligan’s home and, while it can be rented alongside the adjoining cottage for larger groups, we think it makes an ideal self-contained retreat.
