Location: Beacon House is approx. 0.5 miles from the small village of Broad Oak on the eastern side of East Sussex, closely bordering Kent. It has expanded around a crossroads providing convenient access to Hastings, Rye, Tenterden and Robertsbridge yet is still a popular location in its own right. The village pub, aptly named The Broad Oak is a family owned traditional country pub. There is a recreation ground, an independent bakery also selling local homemade produce and a village shop.
Heading South-East through rolling countryside, the well connected roads reach the ancient Cinque Port of Rye. The charming cobbled lanes are lined with medieval, half-timbered houses and a rich history. Rye is renowned for independent shops, cafes and restaurants including The Fig. There are also several thriving pubs including The Mermaid, The Globe Inn Marsh and The Ship. Or pick up some fish & chips to enjoy on the beach at Camber Sands, Winchelsea or Rye Harbour. The independent Kino cinema is in a converted church building. Much of the area surrounding Winchelsea is National Trust owned and a haven for wildlife.
Just outside Rye is Tillingham Vineyards, committed to regenerative farming with natural organic wines to enjoy tastings, exceptional views from the terrace with food from the restaurant or outside pizza barn.
To the South-West is the cultural hotspot of Hastings renowned for its history, trendy bars, shopping and cuisine.
Broad Oak is well placed for local state schools in Hastings and private schools in the area include Battle Abbey, Claremont in Bodiam, Eastbourne College, Vinehall near Robertsbridge and Marlborough House in Hawkhurst. Brede School in Broad Oak approx. ¼ mile away is Rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted.
The train services for travel in any direction are excellent. Battle, Etchingham and Robertsbridge stations provide services via Tonbridge to London Charing Cross. Rye station has services to Eastbourne and Brighton or to Ashford International with a fast service to St. Pancras and Europe via Eurostar.
