"We loved this house and really enjoyed spending the whole week in Winchelsea. We took lots of walks, along the military"

8.0

This is a beautiful historic house which is very well furnished. I was enchanted by all the paintings and prints.

The only drawback was the amount and speed of the traffic going through this sleepy village. As the house is directly on the street it was very noticeable.

The location of the property in a small village was very good. The cottage itself was quite twee with interesting artwork and perfectly comfortable.

The traffic was appalling with cars going past the cottage constantly as it is on a very well used "ratrun". The windows need to be either double or triple glazed.

Very clean throughout, well equipped kitchen, comfy beds and modern bathrooms.

Lots of steep stairs, and a bit smaller than expected.

Historic building & design, beautiful location, quirky village, corner shop was open

Sink hole opposite house. Stairs VERY steep, had to be very careful carrying drinks down to basement to watch TV. Space in first bedroom limited no storage
