THE AREA
The parish of Hartfield is situated in the Weald of Sussex and has been designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty. The village sits on the north side of Ashdown Forest and the south bank of the River Medway and is most famous for being the home of Winnie the Pooh. The village has a lovely sense of community, with local stores, a public house and primary school. The ancient market town of East Grinstead is 6 miles north west, and the vibrant spa town of Tunbridge Wells is just over 8 miles north east. Both towns have an array of restaurants, shops, leisure facilities and offer fast and frequent train services into Central London. There are a good selection of schools in the area, in both the state and independent sectors and if you wanted to escape to the coast, then the lovely seaside towns can be reached in approximately one hour.

DIRECTIONS
From our offices on The Pantiles, turn right onto London Road, then left at the mini-roundabout, heading up Major Yorks Road. At the mini-roundabout at the top of this road, turn left onto the A264, Langton Road. After passing through Langton Green, take the B2110 towards Groombridge (do NOT turn off onto the A264). At the bottom of the hill turn right at the mini-roundabout, staying on the B2110, Withyham Road. Stay on this road until you reach the village of Hartfield and The Barn can be found on the right hand side, just before the Pooh Corner Gift Shop.
