Moorhen Cottage, a beautifully converted barn set on an organic dairy farm in the hamlet of Wartling, offers an idyllic getaway for couples or two people seeking a peaceful escape. Located just 6 miles from the seaside town of Eastbourne, with its vibrant Towner Art Gallery, and near the closest dock at Newhaven, the cottage provides a convenient yet secluded base for exploring the picturesque surroundings of East Sussex.
The cottage is perfectly positioned to offer stunning views over the Pevensey Levels Site Of Special Scientific Interest, with vistas stretching towards the sea and the rolling hills of the South Downs.

The presence of a wildlife pond at the bottom of the garden enhances the cottage's appeal for birdwatchers and those who appreciate the serenity of natural environments, although this feature makes it unsuitable for children.
