Caburn Cottages are a group of eight holiday cottages built using local brick and flint, on the site of our former cowsheds. Our cottages are attractively furnished and equipped to a high standard.
Facilities
The cottages comprise between one and three bedrooms, each with a kitchen/lounge and a bathroom. They are double-glazed and have an area of lawn outside with garden furniture. All are single-storey, making them ideal for children and the elderly.
Each kitchen has an electric or gas cooker, microwave, fridge (with freezer compartment), toaster, kettle and colour TV. Each bathroom has a wc and power shower over the bath. Bed linen and towels are included.
In addition, there is a laundry room with two washing machines and a tumble drier for use by guests. There are two rotary clothes driers in a separate area.
We were awarded 1st Prize in the Sussex Heritage Awards 2001 in the Industrial and Commercial category, for an outstanding development using traditional skills within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Please note: All cottages are non-smoking.
