We’ve got fresh air, misty mornings, beautiful woodland, quiet country lanes. And yet we’re easy to reach from London, the M25 orbital motorway, and the coastal towns of Kent and East Sussex.

Discover Rotherfield, nestling in the finest English countryside

Rotherfield is situated in beautiful English countryside amongst the rolling hills of East Sussex. It’s a peaceful part of the world. The famous spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells is just 6 miles away.

Antique shops, local village stores, Sussex pubs and a historic church, surrounded by farmland where sheep and cattle graze peacefully in the fields - Rotherfield is off the beaten track yet easily accessible to visitors from near and far. The area is real Sussex countryside with working farms (and even a vineyard) producing high quality food and drink for the local and national markets.

English village life has changed a great deal in the past century. Many villages have been overtaken by the pace of modern life or have been artificially preserved in a 'cocoon' for the benefit of coach parties and the tourist industry.

Rotherfield has not.

Rotherfield is steeped in history, but it is not an ‘Olde Worlde’ tourist village. It's friendly, not quaint. Surrounded by beauty, and yet quite simple in itself. There’s a real sense of community, and the village retains a natural English unpretentiousness.
