About this house rental
Welcome to Medleys Barn, a beautiful countryside retreat tucked away in the heart of East Sussex. Once a traditional cart barn on a long-established fruit farm, this characterful conversion blends rustic charm with modern comfort, creating the perfect base for families, couples, friends and walkers looking to explore the stunning Ashdown Forest and surrounding countryside. A stylish barn conversion with a 50ft living space filled with light and surrounded by unspoilt countryside. Sleeping up to 6 guests, Medleys Barn offers two spacious bedrooms, a comfortable sofa bed, two bathrooms and bright open living spaces. Original beams, vaulted ceilings and impressive floor-to-ceiling windows flood the property with natural light, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout.
The spacious kitchen and dining area is fully equipped for relaxed family meals and social gatherings, centred around a large rustic dining table overlooking the terrace and tennis court. After a day exploring the Sussex countryside, unwind in the cosy sitting room, enjoy a game of cards or simply relax with a good book. Outside, guests can enjoy a private terrace with outdoor seating and barbecue facilities, while the surrounding gardens and woodland provide beautiful scenery and peaceful walking routes right from the doorstep.
Whether you're planning a countryside escape, a family holiday, a dog-friendly break or a visit to Glyndebourne, Medleys Barn offers the perfect blend of rural tranquillity and modern convenience.
