Set in a turn-of-the-century Victorian farmhouse on the edge of the historic market town of East Grinstead, Great Harwoods Farm B&B and Holiday Lets offer visitors a warm welcome and a tranquil retreat in the High Weald designated area of outstanding beauty

With a choice of comfortable bedrooms and one delightful self catering cottage, organic home baking from locally sourced produce, and a blend of traditional Sussex character and Antipodean charm, Great Harwoods Farm provides our guests with a uniquely enjoyable stay.

East Grinstead town centre is within easy walking distance, or guests may prefer to head out on to the miles of public footpaths and bridleways straight from the door, to relax and read in the breakfast room, or to laze by the poolside on a balmy sunny afternoon.

Just a 5 minute drive from East Grinstead train station and 20 minutes from Gatwick Airport, the B&B can act as the perfect stepping off point for London for international travellers, or as a base to explore Ashdown Forest and the surrounding areas of Sussex.

I agree with Tim. From the moment I walked in the door I had such a warm genuine welcome, my stay felt like a home from home. Aisla is a wonderful host. My room was lovely, warm and clean with little touches that make the difference. The breakfast was hearty with lots of homemade, local and organic produce. Would definitely recommend and would like to come again. Thank you.

For a special weekend we can highly recommend Great Harwood for the warm welcome, comfortable accommodation and delicious breakfast. The homemade jams and bread were excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing massage which Ailsa is able to offer in house. Location was very quiet but convenient for visiting East Grinstead and Nation Trust properties nearby. Thank you for a great weekend!

We had a wonderful weekend in September 12 at the farm and cannot speak highly enough of everything. Ailsa was so welcoming and friendly and we felt like we were at home there.Our room was perfect with everything we could need and there was a big variety of food for breakfast.We would have no hesitation about recommending it to anyone and hope to go back ourselves soon. Perfect B and B.

We have just spent a weekend at Great Harwoods Farm and it was one of the best bed and breakfasts we have ever stayed in. Clean, comfortable, welcoming – we couldn’t have wished for a better stay. Thank you for a lovely weekend. We will definitely be back! Roy Fraser-Watson a week ago This is a wonderful find and was the perfect place to visit. Our host Ailsa, was very welcoming and went out of her way to make us feel at home. The breakfasts were amazing, both the smoked salmon scrambled eggs and the full English breakfast. There was also fresh fruit, juices, cereals etc. Great location near Gatwick Airport and only a short walk into the charming town of East Grinstead Pierre De Rijck in the last week May 10th 2016. During our three nights’ stay in this lovely B&B, we appreciated the warm welcome, and enjoyed the hospitality very much, not forgetting the great breakfast of course. The owners David and Ailsa make you feel at your ease and are always available for a friendly chat. The rooms are spacious, cosy and perfectly equipped with all facilities. Set in a perfect location near the beautiful market town of East Grinstead, it was interesting but also great fun exploring the beautiful countryside and features of the High Weald in our MGB. A holiday break we certainly will not forget and therefore highly recommend to everyone visiting Sussex. From Pierre and Aron De Rijck (Kruibeke-Belgium) Thank you Ailsa and David. • • •
