About this property

Apartment The Retreat room at Humphries Cross Apartments

The Retreat is just like its name! Situated on the first floor with lovely high ceilings. It has the best views of the sun rise, grounds and countryside, from the bedroom and kitchen windows. The perfect place to relax.

It has a fully equipped kitchen including a cooker, hob, microwave, coffee machine, large fridge/freezer, ironing facilities and dishwasher. The farmhouse sink and the beautiful oak worktops adds to its charm. The open plan lounge area with its stunning original victorian fireplace is stylish and comfortable with a flat screen LED TV with freeview.

The modern ensuite bathroom has a large walk in shower, WC, washbasin and shaver point. The bedroom has dual aspect windows and has a comfortable double bed, hanging space and a chest of drawers. A hairdryer is also provided.

There is tea, coffee and sugar in the cupboard and all fresh bed linen and fluffy towels included.
Throughout the apartment there is also free wireless high speed WIFI.

Feel free to wander around our beautiful grounds or relax in the gardens.

Please note: We do not accept dogs in this apartment. However one well behaved dog is welcome in our Granary apartment.
Whether you are looking for a relaxing few days away to unwind or somewhere to stay for a few weeks to explore the beautiful local countryside or stunning Medieval Cinque Port town of Rye, we are always happy to welcome you.

Stay in one of our three cosy apartments in the original Victorian farmhouse and relax in our 15 acres of beautiful grounds and gardens. Humphries Cross is a large Edwardian country house in an idyllic location, surrounded by pretty farmland in an area of outstanding natural beauty. The Victorian portion of the house dates back to the early 1800's and has been transformed into three stylish and tranquil self catering apartments with its own entrance.

We offer guests a quiet and secluded setting in the Domesday village of Iden, with its dog friendly pub, shop, post office and church and only 2 miles from the centre of the historic Cinque Port Town of Rye with its old cobbled streets, antique shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs, art galleries and Nature Reserve.

Just 5 miles away we have the old pretty Ancient Town of Winchelsea and its large shingle beach, Camber Sands with its vast expanse of beautiful sandy beach and breath taking dunes and a little further the well known RSPB Dungeness. Whether you love relaxing walks, cycling or water sports, the surrounding areas has everything to offer.

There are many stunning vineyards to visit including the famous Award winning Chapel Down Winery and we are a short drive away from various properties of interest including Lamb House, Smallhythe Place and Bodiam Castle.

The traditional seaside Town of Hastings is just along the coast.


ONE WELL BEHAVED DOG ALWAYS WELCOME IN THE GRANARY APARTMENT.

A comfortable stay in a well equipped apartment in the countryside.

A most relaxing and enjoyable stay at The Retreat

We loved the quiet and picturesque location, with easy access to Rye by car. The apartment is comfortable, very clean, extremely well appointed and carefully, tastefully and thoughtfully equipped. The welcome pack was extremely generous and much appreciated. Information left in the apartment proved very useful and having a dedicated parking space was wonderful! If we were visiting the area again, we would have no hesitation about staying at The Retreat.

The perfect rural haven for a peaceful night and yet conveniently located for tourist attractions.

We were very grateful for the generous welcome basket. We've stayed in numerous selapartments throughout the UK and this definitely ranked amongst the best. The apartment was clean and well equipped with some very thoughtful touches. We loved the peace and quiet of the location, the grounds, the rabbits, the birds and the wildlife in general. As animal lovers, we were touched by the bench with all the tributes to your much loved pets throughout the years.
