Once a stable block, Benchwood House has been thoughtfully transformed into a modern two-bedroom haven, surrounded by the timeless beauty of ancient woodlands and rolling countryside.
The High Weald is a landscape steeped in history, shaped by centuries of small-scale farming and ancient traditions. Guestling itself is a village with roots stretching back to the Domesday Book of 1086. Nearby, the medieval town of Rye enchants visitors with its cobbled streets, boutique shops, and tales of smuggling, while the Rye Harbour Nature Reserve provides a haven for birdwatchers and wildlife enthusiasts. Just a short drive away, Hastings offers a vibrant mix of seaside charm and historic attractions, including Hastings Castle and the lively Old Town with its array of cafes, restaurants, and shops. This part of East Sussex is a paradise for outdoor adventurers and those seeking peace and quiet. For those who love stargazing, the High Weald is one of the darkest sky areas in South East England, recognized by the International Dark Sky Association, offering breathtaking views of constellations and celestial wonders.
Inside, Benchwood House offers a harmonious blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. As you step into the open-plan ground floor, you are greeted by panoramic views of the unspoiled countryside, framed by large picture windows. These views change with the day, from golden sunrises to fiery sunsets, creating an ever-changing backdrop for your stay. The well-equipped kitchen features high-end appliances, making meal preparation a joy. The dining area, with seating for six, is perfect for gathering and enjoying meals together. In the living area, soft sofas, a Smart TV, and a wood burner create a cosy space to relax, while underfloor heating ensures comfort during cooler months. A spiral staircase leads to the first floor, where two beautifully appointed bedrooms await. The master bedroom features a super kingsize bed, a convertible sofa nook, and ample storage, while the second bedroom offers a kingsize bed. Both rooms have zip-and-link options for flexibility and are outfitted with plush 1000-pocket-spring mattresses and luxurious cotton linens. Dual-aspect windows in each bedroom provide uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside. The bathroom offers a spa-like experience, with a whirlpool bathtub, rainfall shower, heated towel rails, and a Bluetooth-enabled mirror to enhance your relaxation.
The outdoor spaces at Benchwood House are equally inviting. The private garden offers several areas for relaxation and entertainment, from a rustic dining table and charcoal BBQ to a fire pit on the circular patio, perfect for evenings under the stars. A tree deck nestled around an ancient oak provides a serene spot for wildlife watching, while cyclists can store their bikes on a dedicated rack.
