Halfway through the village of Brede, there is a sharp bend.On this bend you will see a lane called Pottery Lane.Turning left in to it, if coming from Hastings or right in to it, if coming from Broad Oak cross roads. Continue along this lane, past the houses. You will come to a woods with a very steep hill going down along the right hand side of it. Do not continue along the lane. Look to your left and you will see a wooden five barred gate with a sign saying, 'The View'. Please enter with the code we will text you and park in the parking area. Continue to your pod on foot through the small gate.
Welcome to, 'The View', our little slice of heaven at God's Acre Farm. Come and sooth your stresses away in our beautiful setting. Relax and enjoy some guilt free time out for yourself. Luxuriate in the amazing view. Listen to the sounds of nature all around you. See all the amazing wildlife. If you're really lucky you may catch a glimpse of the wild deer that roam around our fields and woods.
Enjoy chilling out in the hammock, with a good book and a glass of wine! Take a restorative walk through the woods, or try a bit of tree bathing and treat yourself to a soak in your outdoor bathroom.
Hang out around the firepit and enjoy a BBQ, or roast marshmallows while sitting and do nothing except watching the sun set over the horizon.
Go for a picnic, play a game or two, ponder over a puzzle, or sit and watch an old movie. This time is yours to enjoy.
And when you feel up to it, venture further afield and explore the surrounding area with it's breathtaking scenery at every turn. There's something for everyone.

'Treetops' is our first glamping pod.It is situated in a field with a great view over the treetops across the valley. It is a 5th wheel caravan and so has lots of space to enjoy.
Inside it has an ensuite shower and a separate flushing toilet.
Outside you have your own private outdoor bathroom via a meandering woodland pathway.
All towels and bedding are provided.
The caravan is powered by solar panels, so no electrical sockets work.It uses 12 volt battery only and gas. Because of this the microwave in the kitchen is not in use. But all the other appliances work, including the cooker, kettle, fridge/freezer, radio/CD player, TV, heater and hot water.
We supply a 12 volt hairdryer and a set of hair straighteners, which are kept in the bathroom drawers and plug in to the socket in the ceiling above the small cupboard. So you can look in to the bathroom mirror to style your hair.
