Crawley Down Cottage | Sandhill Cottage with Hot Tub

3 Bedroom Cottage in Crawley Down

To describe Sandhill Cottage as characterful simply does not do this gem of a property justice. The property dates back four centuries and every room exudes historical artefacts. The carpentry - especially in the kitchen and witnessed in the exposed beams is something to behold and guests will feel like they have stepped back in time.
Sandhill cottage sleeps six people in three double bedrooms which are all to be found upstairs along with the family shower room. The living quarters are all on the ground floor and all lead off the spacious hallway with plenty of room to hang up coats and take off the muddy boots after a long day walking the High Weald AONB which is easily accessible from the cottage. The suit of armour in the living room, along with the large open fire (operational between Oct and April) provides the perfect, cosy spot to relax with a glass of wine in the cool autumn and winter months.
From 18th September 2023 guests can enjoy the hot tub and in the spring and summer months, the tennis court. The extensive accessible grounds also have woodland, pasture and a number of ponds which make it a beautiful spot to explore.
There is ample parking at the front of the cottage for two cars and the driveway is accessed through large security gates.
Sandhill Cottage is located down a country lane with numerous walks and footpaths from the front door. It's only a ten minute walk into the village of Crawley Down which has a number of pubs, shops and restaurants. Crawley Down is situated in the northeast corner of West Sussex close to the borders of Surrey and Kent. It's handy for the M23 motorway and only about a ten minute drive from Gatwick Airport, Three Bridges and East Grinstead railway stations which helps make it a perfect spot for small, family get-togethers.
The cottage is also ideally situated to visit the National Trust properties of Standen, Sheffield Park, Nymans Gardens and Polesdon Lacy. Just 4 miles South of Crawley Down is Wakehurst Place which is also owned by the National Trust but run and maintained by the Royal Botanical Society along with Kew Gardens. Other nearby attractions include the Bluebell Railway, Ashdown Forest famous for Winnie the Pooh and friends and in Crawley are Tilgate Park and Buchan Park. To the North West are Wisley Gardens and the theme parks of Legoland, Chessington and Thorpe Park.
The reservoirs at Ardingly and Weirwood are both close by. Weirwood has good facilities for sailing and fishing and Ardingly also can offer rowing.

Summary: Our group had a wonderful stay in this property. A beautiful historical house, cosy kitchen and fireplace to play board games in front of (or watch the rugby instead). Corner store was easily walkable, so too the local pub (we recommend the Crown).
