Description
Vendor Comments: The present owner is selling to downsize but loves the village and all facilities and amenities it presents, as well as wonderful walks, and is therefore looking to stay in the area.
As well as being known for its association with Winnie-the-Pooh and home of creator A. A. Milne, the quintessential village lies in the High Weald National Landscape on the edge of Ashdown Forest. It includes wonderful period properties as well as the famous Pooh Corner tea rooms and shop. There is also a good primary school, doctor’s surgery, pub, tennis and cricket clubs, a church and a village hall with a variety of activities as well as The Bear pub and the Gallipot Inn with the Hatch Inn close by.
You can easily visit the renowned Pooh Sticks Bridge in the midst of the 9.5 square miles of Ashdown Forest, which was the inspiration for Winnie-the-Pooh’s ‘hundred-acre wood.’ Here you can also enjoy bike and horse rides and excellent walks. Forest Row is not far away and includes an array of organic cafes, independent shops and boutiques, restaurants, pubs, farmers market and excellent schools. This large and friendly village also has a supermarket, library, post office, GP surgery, 24-hour veterinary surgery and a thriving community centre.
