The Old Dairy, 200 years old and newly converted

The Old Dairy is a 200 year old building which has just been the subject of a fabulous renovation and conversion into a two bedroom, two bathroom cottage, one of which is on-suite. The property is just four miles from the county town of Lewes, East Sussex.

The bedrooms and bathrooms are on the ground floor whilst the living accommodation and fully equipped kitchen is on the first floor. All bed linen and towels are provided.

The property has a balcony with far reaching views to the Ashdown forest and farmland beyond, and an oak staircase leading to a cobbled area below. Outside, at the rear of the property, is a small cobbled sitting area with two benches and table, suitable for four. Also at the rear of the property are the lovely gardens of Handlye Farmhouse which guests are most welcome to enjoy.

We have many birds including ducks, geese, turkeys, peacocks, chickens and a parrot which run free at the owner's property and so we regret we cannot cater for guests with their own pets.

There is Ultrafast broadband at this property and a large TV in the living area. The property is also well equipped, including a washing machine, dishwasher, fridge etc and all the appliances are new Bosch units.

The Old Dairy is well located. It is just 15 mins walk from the centre of Barcombe Cross village which has a Post Office, grocery stores and a fine public house, called the Royal Oak. The pub offers good food and fine Harvey’s ales. Also within walking distance is the Rainbow public house in Cooksbridge, which has a restaurant and carvery.

Barcombe Mills and the Anchor pub with its boating are just a five minute drive away. The city of Brighton with its many attractions is 25 minutes drive and Goodwood motor racing circuit about 50 minutes by car.
