Studio & balcony with tree growing through it, spiral staircase, stunning views. | Apartment in Herstmonceux

Gorgeously romantic detached annex with stunning views across an area of outstanding natural beauty. Generously proportioned studio room with French doors to large private balcony with large tree growing through it. Spiral staircase to downstairs kitchen and shower room. Private hot tub at the bottom of the tree. Access to beautiful shared garden with BBQ and fire pit which backs onto open fields. Sleeps 2 very comfortably. Adults only. Self catering.
It's on a tiny little lane with trees meeting over the road in places. There are lots of public footpaths including one that goes through next door's land and down through fields to the woods. Sometimes we have sheep in the field behind - at the moment we have cows with calves in the field beyond that.
Treetops is an ideal retreat or lovenest - it's wonderful space for getting away from it all and right into the countryside; to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature; to heal, write, create music or art or to study. It’s the perfect place to wind down and de-stress. It's very much a cosy country property rather than a stylish hotel setting but it's nicely and very comfortably furnished in rustic style. Horses clop along the lane outside and birdsong fills the air. There is a farmer along the lane who has equipment in use and large vehicles during the week sometimes so it's more reliably peaceful at weekends. The owner is an artist, music teacher and Reiki practitioner who lives in the main house with one child.
Treetops' has a stable door with a Green Man knocker to the kitchen, which has a glass hob and electric fan oven, a larder fridge with a freezer compartment, a washing machine, a dishwasher and a microwave. It's is fully equipped with crockery, cutlery and basics such as cooking oil, tea and proper coffee. There's a spiral staircase lit with fairy lights to the studio above and a door to the shower room, which has a very large shower enclosure and a powerful shower.
Upstairs there's a very comfortable seating area with two leather sofas, a 32" Smart TV and a little table and chairs ideal for eating at or working. Looking out of the huge velux windows through the arms of the tree you can see for miles across the countryside. It really is a wonderful view whatever the weather. There's a good selection of board games for rainy days and the wifi is fibre-optic and reliable. Treetops has it's own oil boiler so it's always warm and cosy.
The sleeping area has a deliciously comfortable king-sized bed, lit with fairy lights , of course :)
At the other end of the room there's a little dressing table with a mirror and a hairdryer and a wardrobe/hanging area and the French doors to the balcony.
The balcony is made of local Sussex oak by local craftsmen in the traditional Sussex style and it has a magnificent Beech tree growing through it. It's very private and very sunny and the views across the Weald are fabulous. There's a little arbour and a bistro set and two sun loungers that recline should you wish to soak up the sunshine. At night there's a light that lights the tree up beautifully - however if it's a clear night you might want it off because we have no street lighting so we get wonderful stars - Patrick Moore used to visit the weather station in the village because of the dark skies. You'll hear owls at night and all sorts of birdsong during the day.
Outside Treetops there's a large, shared area of garden which backs onto the fields. During the latest lockdown we extended the guest patio area to make social distancing easier. It has 2 charcoal BBQs and a firepit which you can also cook on and pots of fresh herbs which you are welcome to use. Beyond the patio is laid to turf, and at the very bottom of the garden, two new Shepherd Huts (Meadowsweet and Heartsease) have been built for couples.
At the bottom of the tree, next to Treetops' front door, is the new hot tub, exclusively for the use of Treetops' visitors. It really is bliss! Behind that is the main house and owner's lawn and veg plot which is not fenced off for aesthetic reasons but guests are asked not to go beyond the big guest patio.
On top of a rigorously enhanced cleaning protocol we are also running an ozone generator (which kills everything including viruses) between stays. This takes time for the gas to do it's work and then the accommodation has to be aired out before we can start cleaning, which has affected the check in and out times we are able to offer. If you want to come earlier and explore the area there are loads of things to do locally. If I'm ready early I'll let you know ASAP. Likewise, if I'm able to offer a slightly later checkout I'll let you know :)
If you'd like Reiki it's £37 for a 45 minute session of full body and mind relaxation and restoration or £49 for an hour and quarter, which is a double dose and more suitable if you have more significant physical/emotional challenges to face. I have a colleague who can sometimes visit and who offers Aromatherapy massage and Reflexology. It's £30 for a 30 minute neck, back and shoulder massage, £45 for a 45 minute full body massage and £35 for a 40 minute Reflexology foot massage. Treatments need to be pre-booked so they can be fitted in around existing work commitments.
Although smoking is not allowed inside, it is permitted on the balcony.
