published 29 May 2013

8 bedrooms, staff cottage, 7 acres

Perched on a hill above Ewhurst, 19th-century Folly Hill enjoys views from The Weald to the South Downs. The interiors are nearly as attractive as the panorama-especially the oak-panelled drawing room, the vast kitchen by Smallbone and the vaulted, galleried master bedroom. Seven acres of land also means privacy in this crowded county.

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.
