  • "An enchanting cottage full of history and lovingly decorated."

    Very pretty courtyard garden and easy access to seaside at Bexhill. Perfect for a relaxing break

  • "The cottage was very comfortable and full of very useful items to make our stay really good."

    The courtyard garden was a good sun trap. Being very tall it was difficult to get up the stairs to our bedroom and out of the kitchen. The only drawback was that the front of the house never got the sun and was dark and cool at night. The surrounding area had lots to see and visit and we were lucky with the weather.

  • "There were so many reasons why this stay was an unpleasant experience that I think it is necessary that I document them in the form of a letter which you should receive shortly."

  • "Lovely cottage, spotlessly clean, warm, too many ornaments, downstairs bathroom too many steps for someone with mobility issues."

The property

Little London is a charming, two-bedroom home nestled in the village of Ninfield, Sussex.

This inviting home dates to 1645, and retains much of its character with exposed beams, high ceilings and an ornate fireplace.

Over the last 120 years, this property has been a range of shops, from a shop and repair shop, a Post Office and a bakery.

Little London is a pet-friendly abode, welcoming both family and friends and offers off-road parking for one car.

Enter inside and discover the sitting room; here you can unwind on the sofa as the electric fire glows and the TV keeps you entertained.

The kitchen has everything you need to prepare heart-warming meals, which can be savoured in the wood-panelled dining room over a glass of wine.

Sliding doors lead out to the rear courtyard, beautifully-presented with flowers and shrubbery and hosting furniture and parasol to dine alfresco.

As the evening winds to a close, the ground floor has a bright coloured double bedroom, which is serviced by a shower room, ideal for those with limited mobility.

Venture upstairs to the first floor to discover the family bedroom with a double and single bed, a TV and a lovely en-suite bathroom.

The village of Ninfield enjoys a slower pace of life and is home to a Post Office to stock up on the essentials and two pubs to enjoy a chilled pint.

If you dont fancy cooking head to the The Blacksmith pub at the end of the road which does takeout food, and only 3 minutes from the property.

Within easy reach is the historical town of Battle, known for its Norman landing in 1066; here you can tour the mediaeval Battle Abbey or get outdoors at Battle Great Woods.

The peaceful town of Bexhill-on-Sea is also worth a trip, at 3.5 miles away, here you can relax on a shingle beach or admire the coastal views from Seven Sisters National Park and Glyndebourne.

History buffs will be thrilled with a trip to the town of Hastings, where the battle of Hastings took place in 1066 and where you can dine out with a great selection of eateries to choose from.

For other days out you are 3.5 miles from Cooden and its lovely beach, and 12 miles from Eastbourne.

For a memorable getaway to Sussex, choose Little London.

Please note - 2 small to medium sized dogs are welcome

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

NINFIELD

Battle 4 miles; Bexhill-on-Sea 4 miles; Hastings 9 miles; Rye 15 miles.

Ninfield is a thriving village in East Sussex, situated roughly four miles north of Bexhill-on-Sea and approximately the same distance from the historic town of Battle. To the west is Standard Hill, which is thought to be the place that William the Conqueror set down his standard after the Battle of Hastings. During the eighteenth century, smuggling was rife in Ninfield, nowadays it retains a gentler reputation of being a quiet, Sussex village with traditional pubs, a village green and excellent walks offering glorious views over the fields to the sea. Ideally located between Bexhill and Battle, Ninfield offers visitors the best of both worlds. The traditional coastal town and elegant resort of Bexhill-on-Sea has lots of shops, restaurants and pubs. It’s also the birthplace of British motor racing and home to the De La Warr Pavilion, hosting exhibitions throughout the year. The beach is lined with cute beach huts available for day hire, and the sea is safe for many watersports including sailing, rowing, and windsurfing. Bexhill Sailing Club has a full programme of racing events from March up until November, and members of the local Rowing Club can often be seen on the waves. Battle is renowned for its important historic past, with Battle Abbey standing proud over its centre, looking down on the many period buildings that run along its narrow streets. Yesterday's World living social museum takes visitors on a journey through time, while the many tea rooms dotted around allow you to experience a Sussex cream tea in all its glory. Both the popular and unexplored areas of this part of Sussex provide visitors with a fun-filled holiday at any time of year.
