"This cottage was lovely, snug and comfortable."
It was very clean and had everything we needed for our holiday. The garden was fully enclosed, so just perfect for our dog, as the property is set back from a very busy road. The pub does very nice meals. The cottage is in a good position and enabled us to see Bexhill on Sea, Hastings, Rye and Camber Sands, Burling Gap and Seven Sisters Country park plus a few national trust properties such as Chartwell and Scotney. All in All a very good week

"Really enjoyed our stay at White Hart Stables."
Really well equipped,everything you could want for your stay. Shop with post office facilities and bus stop 30m away. Dog friendly. Two big tvs, one in lounge one in bedroom with sky. Good rainfall shower, big fridge freezer, fully enclosed (by new fencing) back garden with furniture however, could do with tidying up to bring it in line with the rest of the property. Bed very soft with dips really could do with a new mattress. The pub next door own the cottage and I must say it's a great little local pub, really well looked after and the staff are all fantastic, a really slick team, the food is great with decent portions and prices. We ate there three times and enjoyed it every time. They have a lovely sunny little garden out the front too. Really great location for exploring Sussex and surrounding areas. On the 1066 walking route.

"My week at the White Hart Stables (just me and my dog) was fabulous."
The property is lovely, immaculately clean and well furnished. It has a nice double walk in shower and a very comfy bed. It is clean, nicely decorated, cosy and had everything you need including a parking space in front. The french windows open into the secure/private garden, where you can sit and relax with horses nearby. One of the very best things about White Hart Stables is the White Hart pub next door. Lovely traditional pub with a friendly landlord and staff, the food was outstanding (yummy Sunday roast), I ended up eating there four times and each time the food was delicious and good value for money. It is also nice to see a pub so popular with regulars and diners. I had a lovely week and highly recommend White Hart Stables and The White Hart Pub next door.

"One of the best holiday homes we have stayed in."
There is everything you need for your stay and having the pub next door serving excellent food you can’t go wrong. The owner was brilliant making sure that we had everything. Also secure garden for our dog so cannot wait to go back Linda,Paul and Buddy x

"Lovely comfortable cottage in a perfect location."
Shop and pub nearby and part of the 1066 Country Walk right on our doorstep. We had a fabulous week stay and had lovely weather so was also able to use the garden which is safe and enclosed for our two dogs. A couple of suggestions that could make future guests stay a little better. A mirror in the bedroom would be great. Hairdryer provided in dressing table, but no mirror to do my hair or make up and the lead would not reach to use in the bathroom mirror. Also 13.5tog on bed. We had a hot week so perhaps a lighter quilt in the summer months. We had to take the quilt off and use a throw over the quilt cover. These things did not impact on our stay. We are already looking to book again and return and would highly recommend to friends and family.

"A great place to stay, so close to the 1066 walk - if only the weather had been a little cooler!"
Easy access to many attractions in East Sussex. The added bonus of eating and drinking at the pub. Parking a little tight - it was easier to use the back gate for access particularly with a large dog. Specifically for me, I found the key box set too high which was a problem!
-
"The cottage facilities are excellent."
Even though the cottage is next to the White Hart Inns beer garden there is very little noise. The staff of the inn even offer to deliver booked food from their fantastic resturant. It's not over priced and very dog friendly. It's a real old fashioned country village pub the centr of the community . The cottage ideally situated between Battle (1066 etc) 3 miles and Bexhill 5 miles. A lovely stay.
-
"The accommodation was first class."
All requirements were met. The facilities were also first class. Was able to get into the accommodation before our check in which was very good. Also it was situated right next door to a pub, so no driving in the evenings which was also a bonus. Our dog was very safe as the garden was enclosed. Where we stayed was central to all the places we wanted to visit.
-
"Lovely accomodation, with all mod cons."
Pub food and drinks were excellent. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this property.

Can not fault this break - my wife had a fall not long ago and ended up up with a tripple fracture in her leg so is in a wheelchair for a while the staff and owner of the pub could not do enougth to occommodate her - mooving furniture ect to make space for her - the pub was really great - great service - good food and reasonably priced - parking is a bit tight but managable
-
"Great week at whitehart stables Clean, comfortable with everything you need The pub next door was a bonus good beer excellent food and friendly staff."
We would stay again.
-
"White Hart Stables is beautifully fitted out, everything you need here."
The pub is great, friendly staff, excellent food and dog friendly. We have now been twice and will return again. Well situated for walks in the South Downs and 1066 history.
-
"We booked this as a Gift for my husbands parents, they had a lovely stay they said the place was really lovely and cozy, super comfy bed!"
the pub next door also friendly, welcoming and offered great food!. They would recommend and visit again, was a good location. The only downside for me was to find our on their arrival the bath had been replaced with a walk in shower - although lovely, it wasn't what i expected for them. I had two main objectives/tasks when seeking my booking.... 1) Parking space & 2) A BATH!!! (my in laws only have a shower at home, and they both was looking forward to a bath!! my mother in law was mighty disappointed as the bath bombs taken went unused!!) - Please update your facilities and photos - thats all :)
-
"Lovely cottage in rural village."
Furnished well with everthing you need. Bonus next to Pub serving real ale and homecooked food lovely people.
-
"Fully equipped with every basic need."
Lovely and warm. Bed comfy. Pleasantly surprised to see a walk in shower and king size bed as these are not on Sykes website. We really enjoyed our stay and are thinking of booking it again. Negatives... Definitely no car space unless you have a tiny car. Back yard full of weeds..in need of a gardener.
-
"We had a smashing week, the Stable and the pub next door were excellent and very friendly."
-

"What a lovely cottage, clean, tidy with all facilities."
The bed was super comfy! The White Hart pub is friendly, with wonderful staff, great food and super dog-friendly. We loved this wonderful cottage and will definitely be coming back. I am looking at Summer availability straight after completing this feedback questionnaire!
-
"Lovely cosy place to stay."
Very clean and well set out. With all the amenities you could need. The owner Dan was very friendly and made us feel welcome. The enclosed garden was appreciated by our dog and the Normanhurst Estate just being a stones throw away. Great for his walks. The White Heart Inn next door is always very busy and you can see why as the food is excellent. There is a small shop very close by for any essentials you may need. Had a great two weeks . Thank you
-
"The cottage was lovely the photos simply don’t do it justice."
It was lovely and warm, had a fantastic waterfall shower, a memory foam mattress, recliner sofa, large American fridge and sky tv in the sitting room and bedroom. What more could you need? Well, the cherry on top is the dog friendly pub next door with fabulous food and friendly service and a complimentary drink from the cottage/pub owner. There is a good local shop and post office 1 minute walk away for supplies and Bexhill-On-Sea, Eastbourne and Hastings are only a short drive away. Will definitely be back.
-
"A great place to stay and with the pub literally next door, that was a real bonus."
Just a couple of things stopped me giving full marks. Parking a little tight if you’ve an SUV, but suppose you could always use pub car park if necessary. Welcome and leaving instructions a little light in detail. Also shower was warm but would have been nice if it was a little warmer. Finally, just needed a couple of pint glasses
-
"We had a wonderful stay at White Hart Stables, it was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed."
Danny and staff in the pub were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble and they were very friendly and helpful. The food at the the White Hart was really good, with a nice varied menu with a great atmosphere and was obviously well patronised by locals and visitors alike, as it was always busy. I couldn't fault our stay and would happily return.

"We loved our stay at White Hart Stables despite the horrible weather we had."
From the moment we arrived,the owner was warm and welcoming and even bought us a pint at the adjoining pub. The cottage was well equipped,clean,warm and had everything we needed for a lovely stay. We got to be the first guests to benefit from sky tv in the bedroom and the brand new kingsize bed with memory foam mattress. We would recommend White Hart Stables and also the White Hart Inn next door,great food,friendly and a good atmosphere.
-

Thank you great stay very comfortable stay every thing we needed for our break Excellent and very busy pub next door who were very helpful and great food
-
"White Hart Stable is an extremely comfortable, well-equipped cottage."
Even though it’s adjacent to the pub, it’s extremely quiet and private. In fact, the pub is an added bonus as it has an upmarket ambience serving good food by solicitous staff. There’s a well- stocked village shop nearby and a bus stop outside the pub. It’s in a excellence location for visiting Battle Abbey, Pevensey Castle and Herstmonceaux Castle and seaside destinations are only six miles away. Highly recommend White Hart Stable for an excellent stay.
-
"White Hart Stables a pleasant and clean property."
Glad I took my own cafetière and coffee beans. Small double bed ideal for me as travelling alone. Garden needs tarting up. Recommend Monday curry night at the White Hart pub next door. The property is on the main road through to Hastings which did cause noise. Catsfield ideal for exploring the area. Some decent walks nearby. An enjoyable week.
-
"A well appointed cottage next door to a pub which also did very good food."
Dog friendly with a secure garden, there were a number of good dog walks in the area. The accommodation was very comfortable and Dan, the owner made sure that he was available to help if needed. Highly recommend.
-
"Lovely place to stay but the only negative was that its near to a busy road so our little dog wouldnt settle and the bed is a small double."
The equipment was 1st class and really clean would definitely recommend
-
"The property is a really lovely well equipped cottage with everything needed and very comfortable apart from the bed."
We found it small and would suggest it needs to be changed to a kingsize bed. The pub next door was really lovely, We were given a very warm welcome and we enjoyed all our meals except on the first night my husbands steak & Kideny pudding was served ice cold.This was soon put right. Curry night on Monday was a really good deal and great curry. The staff were all, without exception, very friendly and helpful. On the first night my husband reported the TV in the bedroom wasn't working because the aerial was missing plus the cooker hood was filthy. Neither of these was corrected. The shower attachment on the wall is loose and needs attention. I notice from other feedback the garden needs attention. We agree it is full of weeds and no flowers. My final comment would be that this lovely cottage is by a busy main road during the week and traffic noise woke us both around 6am. We read all the previous comments before we booked and this was not mentioned. Had it been mentioned I am afraid we would not have booked it,

"We loved our week at WhiteHart Stable."
It was clean and comfortable, everything was as it should be. We found a quick walk for our dog beside the shop, which is 2 minutes away.This walk is the start of the 1066 walk. Lots of lovely places to visit and lots of tea rooms. The pub next door is welcoming and good food. Dan our host will do anything for you to make your stay perfect. Thanks Dan

"Ideal cottage had every thing you needed for your stay would highly recommend Dan was on hand if you needed anything or had a problem Great to have pub next door with friendly staff an good food while being very dog friendly."
Only thing I would say is get someone to weed in the stones of garden sitting area
-
"Such a warm welcome from Dan and all the staff in the White Hart, we had a very comfortable stay, our accommodation was lovely and cosy."
Lots of great dog walks in all directions and plenty of places to visit within easy reach. The pub served lovely meals, we ate there twice, plenty of choice on the menu and a proper country pub, what a rare thing these days! For anyone visiting with their dog, the back garden is completely gravelled, secure and safe, you can sit in the sun, and relax!
-
"Had a lovely week at this property, one of the best we’ve stayed in."
Easy to find in a great location in beautiful countryside with lots of local walks and close to coastline. Facilities were excellent from quality appliances and kitchen equipment to soft bedding and towels . Everything was clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend or stay again if in the area.
-
"A fantastic place to stay, so many home comforts, high quality and spotless, brilliant for the dog too, the garden was completely enclosed so he could wander around."
Brilliant location, a great pub next door that’s dog friendly and the coast and many woodland walks a short drive away. We will definitely be returning.
-
"Excellent property with a really friendly and helpful host."
Good location for exploring Sussex and the coast around Hastings, next to a friendly country pub, (but quiet) Lovely dog walks nearby in Powdermill nature reserve.
-

A cool and wet week but we were very happy - very cosy and comfy and warm. Good position for driving out, lots to see and explore. Very tastefully furnished, very very pleased. Thankyou.
-
"We had a lovely stay in the white hart stables."
It was clean, warm and cosy. Everything we could ask for with a big fridge freezer and recliner sofa. Sky tv and everything you could think of included. Really loved that it was surrounded by so many lovely places to walk. Our dog loved it. Beautiful countryside and a great pub right next door. We ate there a few times and loved the food and the atmosphere. Dan was very welcoming as were all the staff. We did not want to leave and will definitely be back asap. Thank you for a great trip away it was just what we needed.
-
"Did not live up to the hype on the website."
-
"Just returned after a lovely 2 weeks at the White Hart Stables."
Everything you could ask for and more. Lovely, spotlessly clean, very well fitted out property with the advantage of being next door to a great country pub serving great food. Dan and all the staff could not have done more. Great for dog walking with miles of country walks behind the stables. Would definitely stay here again.
-
"Just spent a lovely week at the white Hart stables,had three beautiful meals at the white Hart pub next door,the owners went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable,clean,warm,comfortable,would highly recommend it."
Thanks Dan hope to see you again.
-
"Great place, Only poor points were the traffic noise of the road."
Reset the heating which was set way above 23c, owner needs to check heating pre-set programme, waisting energy bill Otherwise, a great place for a couple to stay, with a dog. We eat in the pub next door three times during the week very good food. The Cottage was great, comfortable plenty of light and clean, and very central for sight to visit
-
"Great place, Only poor points were the heating would be at 30c whenever it turned on even at 2 am."
The toilet would take forever to refill if a "full" flush was used. Otherwise, a great place for a couple to stay, with a dog. Our Dog made more friends in the pub than we did. We eat there three times during the week very good food. The Cottage was great, comfortable plenty of light and clean
-
"We had an extremely enjoyable stay here."
Very convenient for the lovely pub next door. Dan, the owner worked at the pub and was very friendly and helpful. The property was ideally located for wonderful countryside walks - we particularly enjoyed the walk to Battle. We also loved Bateman's, the NT house of Rudyard Kipling. It was also very convenient for trips to the local East Sussex beaches.
-
"We loved staying here- pub next door very convenient !"
! Served delicious food and great value. Good to have private outdoor space although the furniture isn’t the comfiest! Great location to explore the area- an OS map might be useful for guests to refer to and perhaps a visitors book for guests to pick up any local recommendations. Overall a lovely property and a great weeks holiday - we would certainly book again if visiting the area- thanks Dan .
-
"Absolutely fantastic little place, walk out door and straight into the country pub."
2 parking slots out the way of everyone, pub gets busy from about 7pm till 10pm, so it can be hard to get out, but why would you? Great atmosphere, nice little beer garden, access to lots of local walks and woodland.
-
"Very enjoyable stay."
Bed comfortable but for us a little small. Food from pub excellent and the kindness shown by delivery to the door. Location was ideal, with local shop next door and bridleway which was great for walking our dog.
-
"Dan was a very kind host for this lovely little cottage, had everything you could need and more."
.fans were fab for this last week! Great location for us travelling out each day to various sight seeing spots around the county. Pub next door served amazing food, and staff were so helpful and kind, even offered to deliver when we ordered late night pud! Dog friendly pub and cottage, would def stay again when in the area.

"Had a very lovely stay at this welcoming little cottage."
It had everything we needed and we found it very comfortable. Extremely useful having the pub next door with very good pub food, where the dog was also welcome. It was very clean throughout and the host was very helpful. Couldn’t name a single fault, we will be back for sure!
-
"The Stables was very comfortable and we enjoyed our stay."
With the pub next door that does excellent meals and a shop a few yards away ,the stables is an excellent base for exploring the beautiful country side all around.
-
"White hart stables needs some T."
L.C. And it would be really lovely, pub food is lovely and very friendly. It is a very comfortable place but very dated, no instructions for anything and the welcome pack tells you nothing. There is a shop next door which is handy.
-
"Cottage has everything one could need, clean and comfortable."
Back garden a nice place to chill out, a sun trap in the afternoon. Having village shop & post office 50 yards away very useful. Bonus to have Sky TV and parking (if a bit narrow!) right outside the front door. Two small points, removable small step at front door to help those with mobility issues in and out, is needed, also toilet brush in bathroom required. Will definitely stay again.
-
"Really nice, Dan was a very welcoming host."
The property was great and has all you need for a short break. We would stay there any time.
-
"Fantastic place to stay for my partner, myself and our dog on his first ever Cottage stay!"

Bexhill-on Sea 3 miles; Battle 3 miles; Hastings 7 miles; Eastbourne 12 miles; Lewes 20 miles
Catsfield in a rural, rustic village, scattered with several farms and cottages. Set in an ideal countryside location, perfect for walking, cycling and horse riding, with stunning views over meadows and fields. The village was first documented in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it was recorded that "there is a little church serving the hall", and is considered to be one of the oldest settlements in the area, with Romano British period archaeological remains. Catsfield is located in the Sussex Weald, within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The church of St Lawrence dates back to Medieval times and is well worth a visit. With Battle only three miles away, a town that changed the course of English history, with its famous Battle Abbey, this is an excellent location.
