    Beautiful peaceful location. Spotlessly clean, so well equipped and the little extra touches like towelling robes made it even more special. Falling asleep to the sound of owls in the trees and waking to birdsong was so perfect.

This is a luxury one bed self-contained flat set within the South Downs National Park. Quality interiors await you within a comfortable and tranquil setting. Stantons Loft is only 15 mins from Lewes & Haywards Heath, yet the surroundings are rural and idyllic, with plenty of walks and mountain bike trails from the door step.
I am married to Graham and we have adult twins. We love the outdoor life. Walking, cycling, tennis, skiing and anything we can do together including silly games. We love entertaining and our friends are very important to us. We also enjoy travelling both in the UK and abroad. We are generally available to assist with arranging days out and recommended walks and cycle trails. There is an ordinance survey map of the local area available in the loft for guests use.
East Chiltington is a small hamlet just north of Lewes in East Sussex. We are known for our great pub, Saxon Church and our beautiful countryside. There is no reliable public transport from the Village, however there is a good train service from nearby Plumpton Station which is on the Lewes and Eastbourne Line. Plumpton Station is approximately 20 mins to walk or 10 mins by car. Most taxi companies operate out of Lewes or Haywards Heath.
