Whether you’re seeking a cosy escape or a spacious retreat, Sussex has a wide variety of self-catering options to make your stay unforgettable. Imagine settling into a charming, traditional cottage or a beautifully converted barn, where you can enjoy the ultimate country-living experience surrounded by Sussex’s natural beauty.
Comfort, privacy, freedom. Perfection.
From luxury retreats equipped with private hot tubs and swimming pools to rustic stays on real working farms, Sussex has accommodation to suit every style and need. Many self-catering properties boast modern amenities combined with characterful details, from exposed beams and stone fireplaces to large gardens and cosy nooks, creating a homely yet upscale experience that feels miles away from the everyday.
A very big house in the country
If you’re planning a family trip or group gathering, larger cottages and farmhouses offer plenty of room, sleeping up to twenty guests at once. Some of these properties even welcome pets, making it easy to bring along the whole family. For couples or solo travellers looking for a quiet getaway, there are also quaint one-bedroom cottages tucked into scenic corners of Sussex’s countryside, ideal for reconnecting with nature.
Location, location, location
Sussex’s self-catering options place you in prime locations to explore the surrounding areas. Whether it’s hiking the South Downs, cycling through woodland trails, or visiting charming market towns and coastal villages, your days can be as active or as relaxed as you wish. You can then return to your private retreat to unwind and cook a dinner with local ingredients. On clear nights, you could even indulge in a bit of stargazing, especially if you’re near the South Downs National Park – one of the best stargazing spots in the UK.
