Daniel Day-Lewis spent much of his childhood here, when his grandfather owned Apedroc. Now a 110 acre stud farm breeding racehorses, this timelessly beautiful setting is also home to peacocks, rare-breed sheep, deer and comical goats. In spring, Apedroc's woods are awash with bluebells and in summer old English roses abound. Apedroc is set on the edge of the historic Ashdown Forest, once the home of Winnie the Pooh and his friends. Pooh Sticks Bridge is a brief step away, and there are three very traditional old English pubs within a mile. On summer Sundays there is village cricket to watch on the Croft in the quintessentially English village of Hartfield. The great houses at Hever Castle, Penshurst Place, Scotney Castle and Chartwell are close by, as are the dramatic gardens at Sheffield Park, Wakehurst Place and Gravetye Manor. The historic towns of Lewes, East Grinstead and Tunbridge Wells are within easy reach, and the dramatic splendour of the South Downs, towering over the sea, are less than 30 miles away. Local vineyards, such as Rathfinny and Bluebell, are now the place to find some of England's finest wines. You could take a trip on the charmingly-preserved Bluebell steam railway or a magical night of opera at Glyndebourne is a possibility, as is a visit to Alfriston, quaint former home of Virginia Woolf. Alternatively, you can just stay here & drink champagne on the terrace, as the sun sets over the fields and the stars glisten in a peaceful country sky. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 0.5 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - Smooth flooring in public areas - Stair-free path to entrance - Tile flooring in public areas - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Wheelchair accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/107000000/106920000/106919600/106919535/3cbd9d94.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Coach House @ Hoods Croft Lewes - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 10 Exceptional 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=106919535&PinnedHotelID=106919535&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/106000000/105640000/105635900/105635806/77f259e4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cotchford Farm - The Ancestorial Home of Winnie-the-Pooh Hartfield - Pool - Free WiFi - Parking available - Laundry [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=105635806&PinnedHotelID=105635806&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/39000000/38310000/38304200/38304135/b3dcbb0e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3 bedroom accommodation in Lingfield Lingfield - Kitchen - Washer - Pet friendly - Free WiFi 9.8 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-09&endDate=2026-02-10&selected=38304135&PinnedHotelID=38304135&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor spa tub](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/119000000/118280000/118271300/118271207/d291afe2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Starlight Lodge - 4 bedroom Barn with Hot Tub!

The castle went through a number of owners since the Boleyn family after passing to the Crown on the death of Anne's father, Thomas Boleyn . In 1903 it was acquired by William Waldorf Astor, an American millionaire, who restored it in Tudor style using, as far as possible, the same tools as Tudor craftsmen. The extensive castle grounds are beautiful in summer, and include a rose garden which is lovely in full bloom. Definitely worth a visit for history-lovers and nature-lovers alike. Highlights include Anne Boleyn's bedroom and the collection of portraits of Henry VIII and his six wives.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6091999/9e710146-7db5-4b72-8781-3e6eb5273fa4.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Hever Castle and Gardens 22 min drive \- 16.3 km - ![Brighton Beach featuring general coastal views](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6081139/e6925ac8-9790-479e-901e-db32a3e6d4e7.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Brighton Beach 54 min drive \- 59.4 km - Forest Way Country Park 12 min walk \- 1.0 km - Enchanted Place - Winnie the Pooh 8 min drive \- 5.8 km ### Getting around - Cowden Station 11 min drive - Gatwick Airport (LGW) 36 min drive ### Restaurants - Thai Time 5 min drive - Forest Brasserie 7 min drive - The Swan 5 min drive - The Old Dunnings Mill 12 min drive - Caffè Nero 11 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Luxury hideaway on historic Sussex stud farm in area of outstanding beauty pet-friendly? ### How much is parking? ### What time is check-in at Luxury hideaway on historic Sussex stud farm in area of outstanding beauty? ### What time is check-out at Luxury hideaway on historic Sussex stud farm in area of outstanding beauty? ### Where is Luxury hideaway on historic Sussex stud farm in area of outstanding beauty located? ## Have a question?
