Forge House, located in the picturesque village of Etchingham, East Sussex, is an idyllic countryside retreat that comfortably accommodates up to 16 guests. Nestled in the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the property boasts a tranquil setting surrounded by fields, making it an ideal venue for family gatherings or group get-togethers. Its proximity to the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and notable attractions such as Batemans, the former home of Rudyard Kipling, and Bodiam Castle, both National Trust properties, enhances its appeal for those seeking a blend of relaxation and exploration.
Upon entering Forge House, guests are welcomed by a spacious hallway that offers stunning views of the lush garden and surrounding countryside. To the left, the expansive lounge features a cozy wood burner and ample seating, perfect for unwinding after a day of adventures. For a more intimate setting, the opulent Woodland room provides a charming atmosphere. The heart of the home is the modern kitchen/diner, equipped with high-end appliances including a five-ring gas hob, dual electric ovens, and an American-style fridge/freezer. With seating for 16, it is perfect for large meals and gatherings, while the bi-fold doors seamlessly connect the indoor space to the outdoor garden.
The sleeping arrangements at Forge House are thoughtfully designed across two upper floors. The first floor includes four well-appointed bedrooms: two luxurious double suites, a spacious super king master suite with a lavish en suite, and a triple room with a bunk bed and single bed. A family bathroom is also available on this level. Ascending to the second floor, guests will find two additional bedrooms—a quad room with a bunk bed and two singles, and a king-size room with an extra single bed—sharing a large bathroom. This layout ensures ample privacy and comfort for all guests.
Outside, the property features a large, south-facing garden that serves as a sun trap, perfect for relaxation and outdoor activities. Guests can indulge in the hot tub after a day of exploring or enjoy al fresco dining at the outdoor seating area, complete with a charcoal BBQ and fire pit. Additionally, children and young adults can make use of the annex situated above the garage, which includes a sofa bed and WC. With private parking available for six cars, Forge House is a well-equipped, peaceful haven that promises a memorable stay for families and friends alike.
