Lucy & John were very friendly and welcoming hosts. The house was comfortable and equipped with everything I needed. It is conveniently located, making it a great base for visiting the Seven Sisters cliffs, as well as for cycling and hiking in the surrounding area. The animals were also a lovely addition and made my stay even more enjoyable. I had a wonderful time and would happily recommend this place.

"Wonderful time at Thornwell lake farm! We looking forward to come back 🥂✨"

10.0

We had the most wonderful time. Beautiful farm and everything was immaculate, hosts were amazing and very accommodating. We got to taste their free range eggs which were delicious. The place was excellent for kids with nature, lake, animals, lots to explore just outside the room. We couldn't recommend more for families 🙏🤗✨

"Excellent accommodation, I would definitely stay again."

10.0

Very spacious, comfortable accommodation in a beautiful garden/woodland setting, very peaceful. Good to have the choice of a shower or bath. Loved seeing the horses and the chickens. Kitchen well equipped. A large fan was a thoughtful addition in the current heatwave. Excellent location for visiting Eastbourne, Beachy Head and surrounding villages but away from the hustle and bustle of the traffic-filled and busy town that Eastbourne has now become.

A desk/dressing table with a large mirror would be a great addition. The current mirror in the bedroom was totally out of reach for shorties! The basin in the bathroom took a very long time to empty, must need a thorough clean out.

Location handy. Nice local walks.Quiet.

Unsafe curves on road, coming in and out of driveway. Suggest safety mirror to be installed.
