Wadhurst High Street is approximately 1½ miles distant and offers an excellent range of shops and services for everyday needs including a Jempson's Local store and post office, cafés, butcher, pharmacy, florist, off licence, bank, public houses, as well as a doctor's surgery, dentist, primary school and the well regarded Uplands Community College and Sports Centre.

The A21 is also within easy reach and links with the M25 and the regional centre of Tunbridge Wells is about 6 miles away and provides a comprehensive range of amenities including the Royal Victoria Shopping centre, cinema complex and theatres.
The beautiful surrounding countryside is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and includes Bewl Water Reservoir, reputedly the largest area of inland water in the South East, where a wide range of water sports can be enjoyed.
Description:
