We loved this house! It was so spacious, clean and comfortable. We loved Gordon’s Happy Hens (and their free range eggs!), the playhouse and the quiet location. We were able to explore so much of Kent/Sussex using this home as a base.Robyn Prior - 6th November 2018

Excellent and it was in a fabulous location with extensive views.Mrs Lynn Vallance - 9th October 2018

The Old Granary is in a perfect location for a family holiday with many attractions a short drive away. Your staff were very helpful and understanding when we had to rearrange our booking dates due to medical reasons, which are happily now all sorted! Thank you.Mr John Hills - 5th October 2018

We love this house ... this was our third stay at The old Granary and we hope to book again in the future. The house perfectly fits our requirements for three generations holidaying together. We love the garden and the amazing view. We also adore the chickens. The owners are very friendly and always happy to chat about the history of the farm and local area.

Very satisfied in every way.East Sussex is very attractive with many things to do.

We enjoyed our stay in the Old Granary in Brede very, very much. Our stay (4 days) was far too short to explore all the possibilities of the environment. We must and will come back. The local pub The Red Lion is highly recommended. Food and service are really awesome.Mr VP from Netherlands - 21st May 2015

This is our fourth visit and it remains one of the very best we have had the pleasure to visit. Our hosts are excellent and it suits us perfectly.Mrs Smith - 4th May 2015

We spent two wonderful weeks at The Old Granary. Thank you so much for the lovely welcome with cake, flowers and eggs - we immediately felt at home here. The children loved getting the eggs in the morning and feeding the chickens - especially Tilda who came to visit us each day! We went for a swim at Camber Sands and enjoyed visiting the National Trust houses and gardens and castles, especially Bodiam, Scotney, Smallhythe Place and Sissinghurst.We would love to come back one day.Familes Roth and Hartz from Germany - 6th September 2014

Perfect Holiday. The owners are very nice and helpful.Mr Roth from Germany - 6th September 2014

After two wonderful weeks in The Old Granary we were sad to say goodbye, and thank you for the lemon drizzle cake, fresh eggs and other welcome pack items. The hens and their fabulous eggs found a special place in our hearts, especially 'Tilda's' visits on our verandah made us happy and laughing.The Bender family from Germany - 23rd August 2014

We had a really special and memorable stay at The Old Granary. It is a truly wonderful place with the most beautiful views. The garden and surrounding fields are a perfect playground for the kids. The roaming chickens and feeding the rabbits and guinea pigs was beyond exciting for our city kids! The barn is so well maintained and the cake and flowers on arrival a very sweet touch. We stayed here 5 years ago and have come back because we had such fond memories. 2nd times don't often live up to expectations, but this did and then some! Thank you for a special, fun filled week. We hope to be back again, but until then keep doing what you are doing!The Jones and Dowling families - 2nd August 2014

Thank you very much for your lovely welcome in the wonderful 'Old Granary'. We were lucky to spend two hot, sunny weeks here. The house is very well equipped and the garden is wonderful with the fantastic view to the valley. Every morning the chicken had breakfast with us. They are very cute and our daughter wanted to take one of them home...don't fear we checked her luggage!The Schroter family from Germany - 26th July 2014

The Old Granary is a true home. Fully equipped kitchen, flowers, eggs and cakes for starters..Even the clothes on the washing line and the wind blowing them dry.... Our family immediately felt at ease. All those beautiful places to visit in the neighbourhood We enjoyed every minute. We will recommend you to our friends, and hope to come back one day.The Vanderheyden party from Belgium - 12th July 2014

Had a fantastic New Year - very comfy. The view of all the fireworks at midnight while the Brede church bells tolled is something I'll never forget. What a well thought out conversion - thank you!Jim & Jules and Eva McTarish - 29th December 2007

We enjoyed our weeks stay here at Brede. The property was lovely and spacious and the view excellent. There were many places of interest to visit, not to mention the lovely welcome.Jan, Marc and Family - 22nd December 2007

We had a wonderful week. The house is exceptionally comfortable and very well equipped and the view in the morning are a joy to wake up to. Friendly welcome and lovely cake and eggs. Definitely recommend Battle for a tramp around the battlefield, very atmospheric and the Red Lion pub opposite the Church is very good for food.Mr and Mrs Hodgson - 27th October 2007

We all had a thoroughly wonderful holiday! Thank you for such a warm welcome, the fresh eggs and cake were delicious. The scenery was fabulous and the accommodation well equipped and tastefully decorated. The children were in their element with the tractors, sheep, hens and all things farm related. We would love to return again, but for a 2 week visit at least.Mr and Mrs Wood & Family - 28th August 2007

You have put so much thought into the conversion of The Old Granary. It was a pleasure to stay. We enjoyed the farm atmosphere and good country air. The chickens were a great attraction and thank you for the eggs. A fantastic place for the children and a wonderful setting. Fantastic accommodation - you have thought of everything. We will be back I hope!Mr and Mrs Grint & Family - 11th August 2007

A wonderful discovery with a warm welcome (including Lemon Drizzle cake). Warm weather and lovely house. We were very much at home here. Our daughter loved the chickens and the chance to run freely across the field. Thank you for a terrific cottage holiday that we all enjoyed.David, dominica, Maricel and Anne - 10th July 2007
