Reign in Queen Anne elegance
A pretty, well-positioned Queen Anne house in East Sussex with good proximity to local schools has been launched on the market
What family would not wish to spend 20 years or more behind the elegant Queen Anne façade of 17th-century Little Bucksteep, which sits amid banks of rhododendrons and magical landscaped gardens in the heart of unspoilt countryside, a mile and a half from the pretty East Sussex village of Dallington?

Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by His Majesty The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
