There's been no horsing around in converting these stables into this studio retreat – excuse the pun. You can't have a country bolthole without a log burner to snuggle up in front of, right? Luckily there's one here, and the first basket of logs is provided to get the fire going. There's no escaping from the fact that this cottage is traditionally decorated, but it adds to the charm. The absolute highlight for us, though, is the garden with its wonderful views over wildflower meadows to Orlestone Forest (famous for its nightingales). When you're ready to explore, head to the nearby village of Hamstreet, with its shops, eateries and pub, a short drive away (it's walkable too).

About Rye
One of the most picture-perfect places in the south east, this tiny town is one of our best kept secrets. Its medieval citadel is made up of narrow, cobbled streets and ancient buildings rising high above the marshes. Set on the little River Rother and defended for centuries by the imposing Ypres Castle, it looks for all the world like the land that time forgot. Exploring the pretty streets is...
