Please note: The zip and link super king size bed can be made into twin beds on request at time of booking.. This beautiful country property borders the grounds of a 200-year-old Grade II* listed windmill, the landmark that gives the village of Windmill Hill its name. The windmill has been carefully restored with the help of the Heritage Lottery Fund, other donors, and a team of dedicated volunteers. It is now an operating windmill, open to the public most Sunday afternoons from Easter to September. House guests can visit the mill at other times by prior arrangement. Entry is free but the Windmill Hill Windmill Trust relies on donations to ensure the continued maintenance of the mill.

Windmill Barn has an enclosed garden to enjoy in the summer and has the benefit of private parking. During the winter you can curl up in front of the wood burner after a brisk walk through the surrounding countryside.

The property resides on some of the highest ground for miles around, and is set within ‘1066 Country’, overlooking the Pevensey Levels National Nature Reserve, beyond which is the English Channel. Visit the seaside town of Eastbourne, notable for its high sunshine levels and holder of the record of the highest amount of sunshine in a month. Take a boat trip and view the breathtaking white chalk cliff coastline known as Beachy Head and the Seven Sisters. Stroll the nature trails within the South Downs National Park, or visit Pevensey Castle, Herstmonceux Science Centre, and the market town of Battle. Golf and fishing are available locally. Beach 6 miles. Shop, pub, and restaurant 300 yards.

The perfect property for a relaxing break.

The perfect property for a relaxing break. Everything you need is provided. We didn’t use the kitchen much preferring to eat out in local pubs. Not having to cook was a treat. The Bulls Head , The Six Bells at Chiddingly and The Smugglers Inn at Pevensey all served great delicious food. Paul gave us a private tour of the windmill which we found very interesting. We enjoyed the log burner and had a thoroughly pleasant stay here . We would recommend this place very highly.

We were coming over from Spain And needed somewhere comfortable to quarantine for 14 days.

We were coming over from Spain And needed somewhere comfortable to quarantine for 14 days. It was a little scary booking a rental as we wanted all the home comforts, all other places just did not pass the very high list of requirements. I am pleased to say The Windmill barn came up trumps, it was cosy and well thought out with the log burner, full kitchen, smart TV, and very comfortable bed. Had everything we needed including good WiFi. Our hosts were excellent and obviously we had to rely on them a lot, with 2 large shops being delivered. Also the only humans we spoke to over the 2 weeks ( obviously social distancing) It was also a bonus with the windmill outside as it gave us something interesting to focus on.

Windmill Barn, found and booked at fairly short notice, matched if not exceeded expectations.

Windmill Barn, found and booked at fairly short notice, matched if not exceeded expectations. Quiet location set back from the road. Comfortable, spacious, well-equipped; furnished to a good standard upstairs and down. Effective wi-fi. Good bathroom, very comfortable bed. Appliances - oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer etc - as good as new, easy to operate with manual instructions to fall back on if required. The oven was in such gleaming pristine condition, I was apprehensive of spoiling with a Sunday Roast Chicken! The owners were friendly and welcoming at all times, not that anything arose during our stay to trouble them with. The cottage is well placed for visiting the very many lovely houses, gardens, castles etc in the vicinity, also with the benefit of being close to the coast. The entire week proved to be a welcome relaxing escape from the real world. Sorry to leave and hope to return one day. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
