Ashdown Forest eco-studio with large garden, fibre broadband, and most bills included

Ideal if you’re looking for a one-person countryside haven that’s just 3 minutes’ drive from the nearest shops in Forest Row, 10 minutes’ walk from the Hatch Inn pub, and an hour's commute to London Victoria from nearby East Grinstead station. It’s ideally located for hybrid working, with high-speed fibre broadband making Teams calls easy, despite your semi-rural location.

Available from 28th September 2026.

It has solid oak flooring, a kitchen area with a 2-ring induction hob and fridge with freezer box, plus ample space for a sofa area and a double bed. The shower room includes a washer-dryer.

The main living area includes a Jotul wood-burning stove, in addition to the main house heating. With modern double-glazing and excellent insulation, in the recent heatwaves it was routinely 10 degrees cooler than outdoors - which also makes it cosy in winter. Heating and hot water come from the main house, where the landlords live.

You have a traditional stable-style front door, overlooking the 100m² garden. This has a mature elderberry, a beautiful purple beech, a pink rambling rose, a new post-heat-wave lawn, and a large decking area for the afternoon sun - with a brand new outdoor sofa and table set to enjoy coffee in the sunshine, plus a blank-canvas bed previously used as a veg patch and flower bed. There’s also a log store and a brand new 8' x 6' storage shed.

You have direct access straight onto the ancient part of Ashdown Forest, between Forest Row, Colemans Hatch, and Wych Cross, with road-free walking routes to Forest Row village and local landmarks. So this is perfect for you if you love sunset walks and being in the countryside, and want somewhere peaceful to live, rather than a party-pad.

Rent includes all bills except for:

* electricity (sub-metered & charged at cost, paid to the landlord) - typically this has been around £30 per month, depending on your gadgets

* phone/broadband (you have your own line and can choose your preferred supplier and package)

* wood-burner wood

* TV licence, if needed

Heating from the main house is included mornings and evenings, and at other times it may run. The wood-burning stove and a high-efficiency oil-filled radiator are there if you ever want a top-up. Reasonable use of the main house’s hot and cold water and sewerage is included. Council tax service contribution is included.

Long-term tenant only. ***One person only***. Sorry - this is not negotiable.

Part or Fully Furnished:

Available part- or fully-furnished. It comes with a folding table and chairs, fridge, the washer-dryer, and decking outdoor sofa and table set. Most tenants prefer to use their own bed, sofa and clothes storage, but these can be provided for a monthly additional fee.

Pets:

Not suitable for dogs. The garden fencing is not dog-proof. The landlords’ elderly dog is near-blind, deaf, and easily scared, and the shared driveway from the forest track passes their garden in front of their home. The landlords have a cat that sometimes walks through the garden.

The landlords live on site, with a shared driveway, though you have your own parking area for two cars.

If this feels like a great match for you, and you’re excited about having a garden, whilst also ok with looking after the lawn and flower beds, please message Clare to request a viewing, sharing a bit about yourself, what you're looking for, and when.
