Tucked away behind mature hedges and approached via a wooden footbridge, Foley's Cottage is every inch the quintessential English country cottage - thatched, detached, tucked away on a quiet lane, impossibly cute and surrounded by a delightful garden. Unsurprisingly we fell in love with the cottage when we visited and are sure you will too!
Inside the cottage is cosy and peaceful yet it is full of traditional charms which give it a lovely, historic feeling. The colours are restful and muted and with the added attraction of good quality furnishings, you can't help but feel right at home.
A stroll to the top of the grounds is rewarded by sweeping views of the surrounding downs. In the orchard you'll find the well-appointed summerhouse providing a wonderfully peaceful haven for relaxing after a day's activities in this outstanding area, perhaps before taking a short stroll to the famous Dove Inn and restaurant just below.
Its instant chocolate box visual appeal is obvious and we'd imagine you'll enjoy it as much as we did. Foley's Cottage has been awarded 4 stars (Gold Award) by Visit England.
