The property is located within a pretty rural area forming part of the charming hamlet of Piltdown which has the popular, period pub The Peacock & a new M&S food hall & offers access to the beautiful surrounding Sussex countryside. There is easy access to the picturesque villages of Fletching and Newick as well as to Uckfield town providing a comprehensive range of shopping and leisure facilities including numerous restaurants, a public library and supermarkets plus a railway station with services to London. The A272 provides swift access to Haywards Heath where there is a fast commuter train to London (approx. 45 minutes), and the motorway network of the M/A23 lying to the west of Haywards Heath. Also within a short driving distance is the stunning Ashdown Forest with its scenic walks and outdoor pursuits.

DIRECTIONS: From our office on the green at Newick head in an easterly direction until reaching the Texaco garage on the right, here turn right into Shortbridge Road and then almost immediately right again, opposite Piltdown Pond, into Sharpsbridge Lane. Continue along this lane and the track leading to Tainters will be found a little way along on the left hand side.
