Go through the bright hallway that leads to the fully kitted kitchen and dining area to find the welcome basket on the kitchen table. The dining table and chairs fold neatly away under the table when not in use, and there are extra chairs and seat cushions available in the kitchen store cupboard by the back door and in the bedrooms.
Whether you want to bake cakes or make a full Sunday roast, the kitchen has all that you need. Along with the glasses and crockery, cutlery and utensils etc. The kitchen boasts an electric fan oven, induction hob, combo-microwave oven, full-size fridge freezer, kettle, toaster, filter coffee machine, electric whisk and hand blender. The kitchen windows face west with lovely views over the garden, fields and woodlands beyond, and the garden is easily accessible via the back door.
The living room faces east and south which makes it sunny during the day and the log burner keeps it cosy and warm in the evenings. Extra logs can be purchased from the host, and a child fireguard is available on request. On the shelves and inside the side cupboard you will find an array of coffee table style books and novels. The Smart TV enables you to stream your favourite programs via Netflix, Amazon, BBCiPlayer etc.
The bathroom is on the ground floor, which has a full size bath with an electric shower overhead. There is plenty of storage and complimentary toiletries (hand wash, hand lotion, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner) and cotton wool for your use.
Up the staircase there is a toughened glass child safety balustrade. At Christmas time the staircase is decorated with a splendid festive garland.

Beautiful little cottage in a great setting which is very well equipped. Louise and Karen were incredibly helpful and responsive when we asked questions or for recommendations.
We'll be back!
We had a wonderful Christmas in the cottage. Beds were warm and comfortable. Sitting room was cozy with the wood burner. Kitchen well equipped to handle a full Christmas meal for all of us. Very quiet, semi-remote location. Far enough away to truly feel “in the countryside” but close enough to make a long day of it to London.
Mooie cottage in een rustige, natuurrijke omgeving
Mooie cottage, vriendelijke verhuurder. We hebben genoten van de rust en natuur. Binnen een uurtje met de trein in London en met de auto in een uur in bijvoorbeeld Brighton of Sevenoaks. Lekker buiten zitten onder de sterrenhemel, af en toe wat leuke diertjes langs. Kortom wij hebben een fijn verblijf gehad.
This is a lovely cottage in a great location. It was very well equipped with everything we needed for the weekend.

About the host
Hosted by Louise Winder
Chase Farm is a working farm located in Southwater where the Edwards family have been residents since 1955. Originally a dairy farm, the land is now grassland and arable, so depending on the time of year, you might have sheep grazing nearby or witness the exciting goings on of the hay harvest in action! You will also have the opportunity to see and hear the local wildlife in the fields from your accommodation; from roe deer, pheasants and foxes to buzzards, tawny and barn owls.
Southwater village developed in the 19th century when the brickworks opened in 1891 to take advantage of the vast Sussex clay reserves until its closure in 1981. These red engineering bricks were especially strong and were used worldwide for bridges, infrastructure and housing, including Chase Farm.
