Location

Hadn't been cleaned for a while, cobwebs and dusty

This is a quaint farm conversion in a small village approximately 25 minutes from Brighton. Only a pub nearby, which serves food, no local shop as far as I could tell. Property was clean and tidy, one double bedroom and two bunk beds downstairs, the other option being a sofa bed in the lounge. Kitchen was good, tea and coffee available onsite.

Nothing much to note, small issue with some ants but was sorted quickly.

Cosy and characterful

Hot water went off

Perfect location

Nothing

It really is in the most spectacular location. Poynings, Fulking, Devil's Dyke and the South Downs are just stunning. We enjoyed the Royal Oak pub, about 2mins away on foot. The house is lovely - really comfortable and delightfully appointed. Kitchen is well equipped. Nice towels and bedding. Excellent shower.

It might be worth the hosts spending a day or two staying in the house as guests, as I think there are just some really minor things that you notice when you stay. The knives are really blunt and need a good sharpen. There are no scissors. Kitchen roll or extra tea towels would be helpful. A food waste bin would be nice, especially as there is a green bin outside. The outdoor table could do with a clean. There's no indoor recycling bin. These are really, really minor points but would be so easy to address. The other point to note is that this house is really best for parents (in the double upstairs) and two children (in the bunk beds). It's absolutely fine, but the house is just a bit big (and expensive) for a couple alone, whereas the bunk beds and additional single bed are a bit small for adults - plus you might end up with a couple sharing the upstairs room with another single adult, which may be a little cosy for some. There's no blame in this - just an observation for people who may stay.

The location is WOW!! Loved the field of sheep at the back and went on some beautiful country walks. The barn is fully equipped and very cosy. The bath is a feature and the hot water is instant which makes a change. Appreciated the bottle of Prosecco. Great service and I will stay again.

The kitchen electric stove was a bit slow and not quite hot enough but totally fine if you’re not big on cooking. Espresso cups to go with the fabulous coffee machine would be a nice touch. Kitchen light is at the far side of the kitchen but it was quite fun navigating in the dark with my torch.

Could arrive without worrying that someone was waiting for us

TV had no basic channels,

clean and comfortable

more history on the barn would have been interesting
