Windmill Barn is a great holiday location.

Windmill Barn is a great holiday location. The cottage is very well equipped and a novelty to have the lovingly restored Windmill right outside. It is within walking distance of pubs and restaurants and is a fantastic base for exploring the area.

The barn is in a lovely, peaceful setting and is very well furnished and equipped and all beautifully clean. It was good to have a secure parking space next to the barn and a small sunny patio area with table & chairs. Paul the host is extremely welcoming and hospitable.First class accommodation which we would happily revisit.

Had a great stay at the windmill barn . Paul the host was extremely friendly and helpful. Got the impression that nothing would be too much trouble. Only downside was the accommodation was situated just off a very busy road , didn’t stop us enjoying the area though. Would return in the future.

The perfect property for a relaxing break.

The perfect property for a relaxing break. Everything you need is provided. We didn’t use the kitchen much preferring to eat out in local pubs. Not having to cook was a treat. The Bulls Head , The Six Bells at Chiddingly and The Smugglers Inn at Pevensey all served great delicious food. Paul gave us a private tour of the windmill which we found very interesting. We enjoyed the log burner and had a thoroughly pleasant stay here . We would recommend this place very highly.

We were coming over from Spain And needed somewhere comfortable to quarantine for 14 days.

We were coming over from Spain And needed somewhere comfortable to quarantine for 14 days. It was a little scary booking a rental as we wanted all the home comforts, all other places just did not pass the very high list of requirements. I am pleased to say The Windmill barn came up trumps, it was cosy and well thought out with the log burner, full kitchen, smart TV, and very comfortable bed. Had everything we needed including good WiFi. Our hosts were excellent and obviously we had to rely on them a lot, with 2 large shops being delivered. Also the only humans we spoke to over the 2 weeks ( obviously social distancing) It was also a bonus with the windmill outside as it gave us something interesting to focus on. Many thanks to Paul and Bee Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Windmill Barn, found and booked at fairly short notice, matched if not exceeded expectations.

Windmill Barn, found and booked at fairly short notice, matched if not exceeded expectations. Quiet location set back from the road. Comfortable, spacious, well-equipped; furnished to a good standard upstairs and down. Effective wi-fi. Good bathroom, very comfortable bed. Appliances - oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer etc - as good as new, easy to operate with manual instructions to fall back on if required. The oven was in such gleaming pristine condition, I was apprehensive of spoiling with a Sunday Roast Chicken! The owners were friendly and welcoming at all times, not that anything arose during our stay to trouble them with. The cottage is well placed for visiting the very many lovely houses, gardens, castles etc in the vicinity, also with the benefit of being close to the coast. The entire week proved to be a welcome relaxing escape from the real world. Sorry to leave and hope to return one day. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

We decided to stay away for a break and decided that this location looked perfect, the owners couldn't have made us feel more welcome, the Barn was spotlessly clean and the owner went through all the covid measures that were in place, it ready did make you feel fully reassured. Will be back for another relaxing break very shortly I hope Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Had an amazing, peaceful week at Windmill Barn. The owner Paul was more than helpful, even printing off maps showing us local cycling routes.
