Bramling Cross is a delightful and cosy cottage for two. Nestled within a private small holding of a larger home and is surrounded by fields and open countryside. It’s the perfect choice for those seeking a romantic retreat with an abundance of rural pursuits on the doorstep. Newly converted, this inviting cottage mixes modern home comforts, exposed woods, and cosy soft furnishings throughout. There is a small private terrace with seating.

Bramling Cross is named for a variety of hops first harvested at Wye College in 1927.

Bats use the main house as a summer roost, foxes, badgers and muntjac deer all live locally.
