Hop Press Cottage, Morley Farm, Northiam, is an idyllic Grade II detached cottage, located within the walled garden of historic Morley Farmhouse, which is situated within unspoilt Wealden countryside just six miles behind Rye.

The cottage has its own private parking and entrance and its own secluded private terrace with barbeque. Just across the walled garden is a gateway leading out onto sixteen acres of our own farmland leading down to a stream. Guests choosing this cottage will enjoy sheep, baby lambs in spring, our chickens and also our own very free range eggs right on their doorstep for breakfast!

Northiam village is approximately a mile away, where you can catch the famous East Sussex Steam Railway to either Tenterden with its antique shops, or to moated Bodiam castle. You can take a boat trip on the River Rother, or enjoy the late Christopher Lloyd's Great Dixter, an historic hall house with wonderful gardens nearby.

This cosy cottage is very special and whilst perfect for a special romantic break, it can sleep a maximum of four adults and a child. We are also proud to add that it has been awarded a Gold Award for four years running by Enjoy Britain.

The front door enters from a cobbled courtyard, and the back door enters from the cottage's own picturesque private cobbled terrace.

The living room has a spectacular inglenook fireplace complete with ancient wash copper to the side, mellow polished brick floors with cosy rugs, part stone walls and the whole is heavily beamed. It is very comfortably furnished with quality armchairs and sofa bed along with polished oak dining table and chairs, TV / DVD / CD / radio , IPOD docking station, etc and a selection of books and games in case of the odd wet day.

The tiny separate kitchen is very pretty with a beamed, vaulted ceiling and has been carefully planned to include an electric stove style oven, gas hob with extractor, fridge, dishwasher, microwave, toaster etc along with a full selection of cooking utensils.

A polished oak staircase leads to the first floor and the double bedroom has a glorious vaulted ceiling complete with bracket for the original hop press. There is a further single folding chair bed suitable for a child in this bedroom and a travel cot can also be provided. Antique pine and a further TV / DVD complete this lovely room.
