The location was lovely. Our host charming and did our best to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Bathroom was clean and shower great. Bed comfy and tea/ coffee provided and a great choice. Breakfast freshly cooked and delicious Lovely host couldn’t have been nicer to us. Recommend completely

I’m not sure what happened but we’d booked for one person. How this happened I don’t know as booking.com defaults to two people. However it happened! Not impressed to receive a very curt email saying I’d booked for one and two turned up so I owed a further £60. This was not from our host who was charming about the error but I believe her daughter. We had intended to recompense the lady of course so was a bit miffed at her attitude. I did contact her to explain and say of course we would pay but had no response. I’d say to others check your booking very carefully. I didn’t to my determinant. It turned out to be an expensive error !

We had a wonderful overnight stay at this property. Linda was a fabulous host who made both us and our dog very welcome as did Maisie(the dog) and Colin ( the cat). Our room was clean and comfortable with glorious views. The breakfast was exceptional with muesli , fresh fruit salad and creme fraiche to start, followed by a full cooked breakfast, with fresh bread and home made jams, not to mention a freshly brewed cafetiere of coffee. . Would thoroughly recommend a stay in this lovely quirky cottage with an interesting history. Thank you Linda for your hospitality.

Nothing

Breakfast was great. The village is charming. The recommendation to eat at the Rose and Crown was perfect!

It needs better signage as the neighboring homes have nearly identical names and I ended up having to be redirected by them. The handheld shower head doesn't fit well into the holder so the water is not directed onto to the person showering. A wall mount that matches the shower head would be an easy fix and make taking a shower more efficient and pleasant.

I stayed for 3 nights. The location was perfect for me as it was close to Heathfield where I have relatives and I could easily walk into the village where there are welcoming local pubs with food. Lynda was very friendly and welcoming and I particularly liked having the freedom to come and go as I pleased. It was also good to be able to sit in the garden.

The room would be better with some updating (windows and blinds).

The host was extremely friendly and accommodating. We had a quick turn around going from one wedding on Friday, to another wedding on Saturday. She was so communicative in agreeing to let us have an early check in. We were greeted with a smile when we arrived, before she popped out to get us breakfast for the next day. The area was beautiful, but as we were only passing through for the day, we'd definitely come back to stay again.

Nice room and bathroom, nice scenic garden and local grounds and a wonderful landlady with a great sense of humour. She genuinely made life really easy and went well beyond what was required of her in dropping us off and picking us up when we needed it. Some delightfully scenic walks, especially around 'The Batemans' where Kipling spent the last thirty years of his life.

Burwash is a lovely place with lovely people but I wish there was a bit more to do in the local area. Easily accessible if driving but not if you are travelling by train.

What a lovely place to stay, Linda was so welcoming and helpful. You arrive as a guest and leave as a friend. She welcomes you into her home. Breakfast was lovely and our room was so comfortable including the bed. We came as it is near our Son's home and we will certainly be going back to stay with Linda.

For us there was nothing we did not like

The host, Linda, was extremely kind and personable and immediately made me feel welcome. My room was warm, clean and welcoming, with everything I needed to make my stay comfortable. Breakfast was lovely, with choices of breads, fresh fruit, yogurt and cooked items. I also asked about non-dairy milk and was immediately told that it was no problem at all, which was lovely. All in all a very pleasant overnight stay - a home from home, and one that I would happily have stayed longer at.

The Cottage was exceptionally cute. The hostesses were very accommodating and kind, breakfast was delicious. My dogs and I stayed for a very little while but enjoyed our stay. We only stayed a night for resting before continuing our journey so did not explore all our options/amenities. The room was comfortable and clean. The main street is not far and it is a small town but quaint and lovely. I got in much later than expected and the daughter was available by phone to assist and I was able to get in no issues.

I stayed here with my mother, each of us staying in one of the bedrooms, and we both found them very comfortable. There was good space for bags etc and lovely views. Hers had an en suite, which looks to be newly renovated, while mine had the private external bathroom, which is in good condition and benefits from a bath tub in addition to the shower. Linda was a wonderful host, and provided a delicious breakfast each morning, served on lovely china. The furry members of the family were friendly and delightful, but also kept out of our way for meals, which was appreciated. There are some nice local walks and National Trust properties nearby.

The house is situated on a hill, which needs to be scaled to get into the village - not a problem for me but too steep for my mother to manage, so we had to drive to the pub for dinner even though it was only a short distance away. This won't be a problem for most people though. The driveway parking is also on quite a steep slope, which can be tricky if you're not used to it.
