Location Summary
Slaugham Manor occupies an idyllic setting in the High Weald, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, in the village of Slaugham (pronounced ‘Slafam’), a pretty village much untouched by time with just the one main street, called 'Park Road' where its core population resides.
Slaugham village, steeped in history, is bestowed with some unique features; the country’s only Grade II Listed white telephone box, two unique lamp posts bearing the Royal Crown, along with the ‘Village Tap’ (no longer working) which now carries the village notice board.
Public footpaths and bridleways are on the doorstep for enjoying the surrounding countryside including the property’s historical site of Slaugham Place ruins as well as the Norman church, St Mary’s which dates to the 12th century. Additionally, is Furnace Pond, popular with anglers, as well as the picturesque Mill Pond. Fine dining can also be found within the village with its award-winning ‘Heritage’ restaurant.
The nearby village of Staplefield enjoys two country pubs overlooking its village green and cricket field, while also close-by is the village of Handcross, with shops catering for daily needs, along with pubs and the National Trust’s Nymans House and Gardens.
