A contemporary barn conversion in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The Weald is a very special part of England, with spectacular views, rolling hillsides and villages steeped in centuries of history. Bokes Barn puts you centre stage of this captivating landscape, occupying a perfect position for sweeping views across Wealden Down's hills. You even have exclusive use of three-acres of paddock during your stay, not to mention the croquet lawn and paths through the vineyard.

The barn conversion has been fitted out to an extremely high standard, with lots of extra little touches such as a wine fridge – essential if you’re going to sample the local, award-winning wine! There’s plenty of space for everyone to relax, and three of the bedrooms can be either double beds or twin beds depending on requirements. If a member of your party brings some work away with them, the mezzanine could come in useful as a makeshift study. Bokes Barn also featured in The Times Travel 'best 25 vineyard stays in Europe.'

One place you’re bound to all end up at some stage is the large, south-facing terrace, with its commanding views over the fields beyond. With plenty of elegant rattan furniture as well as a fire pit and barbecue, it’s the ideal spot to spend a relaxing evening enjoying each other’s company. Or head over to the games room where tournaments of table football, darts, billiards and table tennis await.
