Once a shelter for sheep shearing dating back to the 18th century, The Shearing Shed has been thoughtfully restored to an exceptional standard. This cosy, hideaway blends rustic charm with modern comfort, ideal for couples, families, or friends seeking a peaceful break.

Tucked away in a peaceful, private valley on a fifth-generation working farm in Rye Foreign, East Sussex, The Shearing Shed offers a tranquil countryside retreat. With sweeping views towards the historic town of Rye and across to Tillingham, it’s the perfect escape into nature, yet just a short drive or walk from beaches, scenic trails, and vibrant local life.
The Shearing Shed sits at the start of a public footpath leading across the fields to Rye (a picturesque 45-minute walk). There’s even a convenient bus stop at the top of the farm drive for easy access to town. Surrounding you are miles of idyllic country walks through meadows, orchards, ancient woodlands, vineyards, and hop gardens. Coastal adventures also await, from the sandy beaches of Camber to the dramatic cliff paths from Fairlight to Hastings.
With charming country pubs, award-winning restaurants, renowned vineyards, English Heritage sites, and family attractions all nearby, there’s something for everyone just moments from your door.

Arrived from the south east London and disappointed that there was no welcome pack as suggested on the website when booking. If people are travelling from further afield the first thing you want after a tiresome journey is a cup of tea or coffee. I can honestly say it was one of the best cottages that we have stayed in. Country views so tranquil to look at and wonderful sunsets. The drive leading to the cottage is very uneven and and although suitable for farm vehicles it is not ideal for the average car. Suggest that the owner could fill it in with gravel or shingle to make it easier using access. Apart from this a lovely break.

Such a beautiful place. Very clean and has everything you would need. Massive supermarket within 6/7 mins drive. Perfect gateway to enjoy in peaceful atmosphere.
Would recommend to anyone.

Well equipped, comfortable, quiet cottage. Good location & 10 min walk to local pub set up to socially distance/track & trace etc. & 10 min drive to great, local supermarket. Cottage was clean but wood burner had not been cleaned. This would have improved rating along with some information provision regarding rubbish/ash disposal etc.

Great location for a quiet family stay and my little one really enjoyed being so close virtually on top of the farm and being able to run amongst the sheep. Very easy drive to local attractions including camber Sands
