The details
Set within the rolling East Sussex countryside near Tunbridge Wells, Blackham Farm is the sort of place designed for memorable gatherings. This beautifully restored Grade II listed farmhouse sits within private grounds on a historic estate, offering guests a luxurious countryside retreat where character, comfort and space come together effortlessly. Sleeping up to fourteen guests across the main farmhouse and charming annexe, it’s ideal for large family holidays, milestone celebrations or long weekends away with friends.
Inside, centuries of history blend seamlessly with warm and welcoming interiors. Original features and traditional touches sit alongside cosy living spaces designed for sociable stays. There are two kitchens to make group catering wonderfully easy. One centres around a classic Aga, inviting slow breakfasts and relaxed evening suppers, while the second kitchen is fitted with modern appliances including a range cooker and Nespresso coffee machine, making entertaining a breeze.
Days here naturally revolve around spending time together. During warmer months, the private heated saltwater swimming pool becomes the heart of the garden, with loungers inviting lazy afternoons in the sun. Nearby, the bubbling hot tub offers the perfect spot to soak beneath the stars after countryside walks and pub lunches. Evenings might begin with cocktails at the built-in bar before moving into the games room for a round of table football or PlayStation tournaments. For quieter moments, two cosy sitting rooms with woodburning stoves provide inviting places to curl up with a film, a glass of wine or good conversation.
The six bedrooms are individually styled and full of character, offering restful spaces with a boutique hotel feel. From the elegant four-poster bedroom to the peaceful super-king size room, each space feels thoughtfully designed for comfort. The separate Potting Shed annexe adds extra privacy and charm, complete with its own open-plan studio layout, countryside views and magical outdoor bath tubs beneath a fairy-lit pergola.
Outside, the enclosed gardens are ideal for alfresco dining, summer barbecues and relaxed mornings with coffee overlooking the surrounding fields. The rural setting feels wonderfully peaceful, yet you’re perfectly placed for exploring the best of the High Weald. Wander the ancient woodlands of Ashdown Forest, discover the independent shops and cafes of Royal Tunbridge Wells or enjoy wine tasting at nearby vineyards. Historic houses, country pubs and scenic walking trails are all within easy reach, making Blackham Farm an exceptional base for exploring this beautiful corner of Sussex.
