The cosy lounge features a comfy sofa, perfect for cosying up in front of the TV/DVD and watching a good film. The kitchen is contemporary and well-equipped with a gas oven and hob, microwave, and fridge, and has a breakfast bar and stools. Walk through to the romantic bedroom where there is a double bed and beyond this you will find the uniquely finished shower room with a large walk-in shower, twin basins and WC. The bespoke fittings throughout are made from oak salvaged from the woodland around the farm from the 1987 storm.

Outside, the covered veranda is the perfect spot to relax whilst enjoying a glass of bubbly, before dining alfresco on the patio table and chairs.

In a great location with lovely views. The covered verandah is a bonus whatever the weather, allowing lots of outdoor living. Nice clean and comfortable accommodation, if not a little quirky. Lacks better quality refrigeration equipment and the carpet in the living area should be changed. The Hub on the doorstep is useful to have.

A great few days away at Goldings lodge. Visited St. Leonards-On-Sea. A great place for a day out. Not too commercialised. Loved The Goats Ledge beach bar. Goldings is very dog friendly. Will be back.

This is a quirky lodging set in a very pretty garden. Its extremely peaceful and the deck is a lovely place on a summers evening. Dogs would love it as much as their owners I think. The Hub sells tasty cakes, wish we could have tried their pizza and cocktail Friday evening. Walkable distance to Bodiam Castle and the local pub.

The Goldings Lodge surpassed our expectations. The bathroom is massive. The bed comfortable. The kitchen lounge area had lots of space. The fridge big enough to hold 2ltr bottle of milk.
