The Sussex holiday cottage is approached by a path through the garden which is full of wonderful herbaceous plants.

The drawing room is furnished in beiges and creams with pretty floral curtains and coordinating cushions. Two comfy sofas and a beige and cream gingham armchair are grouped around the wood burning stove. With occasional antique side tables, lamps and nautical prints this room is very elegant. All windows look out over the garden, and there is a terrace door which leads onto a small private cottage garden, which is a haven for birds and flowers.

Next to the drawing room is a spacious double bedroom which is in the round part of the Oast. The room is elegantly furnished with 4'6 double bed, large chest of drawers and a dropped leaf oak table. There is hanging space available next to the bedroom in an understairs cupboard. Small windows look out over the pretty gardens.

Between the drawing room and the kitchen dining room is a small utility area with washing machine and storage cupboard housing the central heating boiler. There is also a downstairs WC and power shower which has recently been refurbished.

The kitchen dining room of the holiday cottage is quite stunning with exposed beams into the eaves, and modern lighting creating a wonderful effect. The kitchen is finished in cream painted wood with stylish wooden work surfaces and plenty of cupboards. The kitchen is well-equipped with fridge freezer, dishwasher, Zanussi electric fan-assisted oven with separate grill, extractor fan and microwave. There is a back door from the kitchen with large area to hang coats, and shelves. The dining area has a large antique pine table which seats 8, an antique dresser and in one corner is a traditional oak Windsor chair. There is also a modern flat screen wall mounted TV and DVD player. (The owner has thoughtfully supplied a selection of DVD's and board games for guests' use during their stay.) There is a sofa and 2 arm chairs for you to relax and watch TV or enjoy a pre-dinner drink. Large doors lead onto the private garden and terrace with wooden table, chairs and barbeque.

An oak panelled and exposed rock staircase leads from the drawing room to the first floor. There are two bedrooms on the first floor and a family bathroom. The master bedroom is in the Oast section of the property creating a unique round room. The room's main feature is the king-sized four poster bed in beautiful carved wood. Floaty cream swags on the bed and luxury linen create a truly romantic and magical feel to the room. There are pretty bedside tables and lamps as well as a small wardrobe. A small leaded window overlooks the private cottage garden.

The second bedroom has three beds, two wrought iron single beds with matching linen and gold throws as well as a separate children's single bed (3ft by 5ft 9 inches). There are pretty bedside tables, lamps and a spacious curtained hanging area. Beams abound throughout the cottage, and this bedroom is no exception.

The family bathroom has recently been renovated and has WC, basin and bath with a hand-held shower attachment. Views from the bathroom look towards the old orchard, swimming pool and tennis court.

The Oast is equipped with WiFi internet, a portable radio and an Ipod/Iphone dock and speakers.

Outside this Sussex cottage, the property is surrounded by mature gardens as well as two private Oast gardens for guests' use, one of which has recently been turfed, creating a lovely area to have a coffee or just to lie under tree and read. The swimming pool and tennis court are available most of the time (see Services section below). A barbeque is available for your use.
