Cozy and comfy cottage
We had a wonderful Christmas in the cottage. Beds were warm and comfortable. Sitting room was cozy with the wood burner. Kitchen well equipped to handle a full Christmas meal for all of us. Very quiet, semi-remote location. Far enough away to truly feel “in the countryside” but close enough to make a long day of it to London.

Mooie cottage in een rustige, natuurrijke omgeving
Mooie cottage, vriendelijke verhuurder. We hebben genoten van de rust en natuur. Binnen een uurtje met de trein in London en met de auto in een uur in bijvoorbeeld Brighton of Sevenoaks. Lekker buiten zitten onder de sterrenhemel, af en toe wat leuke diertjes langs. Kortom wij hebben een fijn verblijf gehad.

About the host

Hosted by Louise Edwards

Host profile image
Chase Farm is a working farm located in Southwater where the Edwards family have been residents since 1955. Originally a dairy farm, the land is now grassland and arable, so depending on the time of year, you might have sheep grazing nearby or witness the exciting goings on of the hay harvest in action! You will also have the opportunity to see and hear the local wildlife in the fields from your accommodation; from roe deer, pheasants and foxes to buzzards, tawny and barn owls.

Southwater village developed in the 19th century when the brickworks opened in 1891 to take advantage of the vast Sussex clay reserves until its closure in 1981. These red engineering bricks were especially strong and were used worldwide for bridges, infrastructure and housing, including Chase Farm.
