Our second stay at Caburn Cottages. The perfect place to base ourselves for a return to Glyndebourne. They have been busy during the lockdown improving the accommodation which is much appreciated. A warm welcome from Sarah and Sally for our return along with our two dogs. We look forward to our next visit in October. Thank you!

This is the second year now that I've stayed in Charity Cottage and it's a beautiful location. The prices are unbelievably cheap for what you get- stunning scenery, right in front of Mount Caburn. There's a beautiful long road in front of the cottages, about a mile long, that has some excellent photography opportunities.
All in all, a beautiful holiday location which I shall keep returning to!

My husband and I stayed in Charity Cottage and really loved our stay. The cottage was clean and comfortable with beautiful surroundings. Our hostess, Rosemary, was incredibly friendly and accomodating during our stay. We look forward to returning again with our children and seeing more of the area in and around Glynde.
