Oak Beams & Spiral Stairs

This barn conversion is just the right size for a rural getaway – and just a short drive from Lewes and Brighton. The first thing you'll notice is the original oak beams, which are now a prominent feature in the double-height living space. It's hard to resist a spiral staircase, and this one leads to a cosy twin bedroom, but we'd recommend the ground-floor bedroom if you prefer more privacy. The patio is the perfect place for a morning coffee or evening drinks – you probably won't be here the rest of the day, not with bustling Brighton and the tranquil South Downs on your doorstep.

Home truths:
*Starter toiletries are provided. However, you will want to stock up on other essentials such as coffee and tea, as these are not included.
*Self-check-in is available here. You'll either pick up the keys at a nearby property or use a lockbox on the premises. Your host will confirm instructions before your arrival.
*Your host uses a third-party platform called Truvi for ID verification and to manage damage deposits independently from Plum Guide. They'll send you a link to fill out when you book.
*The spiral staircase to the second bedroom is very narrow, so guests with reduced mobility should take care. Children should also be supervised. Please note there's limited headspace here.
*There is one parking space available at this home. Access is via a gate that opens onto the main road, so there may be some traffic noise.
*The owners live in the main house opposite, so this may not suit guests looking for complete privacy.
