The modern ensuite bathroom has a large walk in shower, WC, washbasin and shaver point. The bedroom has dual aspect windows and has a comfortable double bed, hanging space and a chest of drawers. A hairdryer is also provided.

Feel free to wander around our beautiful grounds or relax in the gardens.

Please note: We do not accept dogs in this apartment. However one well behaved dog is welcome in our Granary apartment.
Whether you are looking for a relaxing few days away to unwind or somewhere to stay for a few weeks to explore the beautiful local countryside or stunning Medieval Cinque Port town of Rye, we are always happy to welcome you.

Stay in one of our three cosy apartments in the original Victorian farmhouse and relax in our 15 acres of beautiful grounds and gardens. Humphries Cross is a large Edwardian country house in an idyllic location, surrounded by pretty farmland in an area of outstanding natural beauty. The Victorian portion of the house dates back to the early 1800's and has been transformed into three stylish and tranquil self catering apartments with its own entrance.

We offer guests a quiet and secluded setting in the Domesday village of Iden, with its dog friendly pub, shop, post office and church and only 2 miles from the centre of the historic Cinque Port Town of Rye with its old cobbled streets, antique shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs, art galleries and Nature Reserve.

Just 5 miles away we have the old pretty Ancient Town of Winchelsea and its large shingle beach, Camber Sands with its vast expanse of beautiful sandy beach and breath taking dunes and a little further the well known RSPB Dungeness. Whether you love relaxing walks, cycling or water sports, the surrounding areas has everything to offer.

There are many stunning vineyards to visit including the famous Award winning Chapel Down Winery and we are a short drive away from various properties of interest including Lamb House, Smallhythe Place and Bodiam Castle.

The traditional seaside Town of Hastings is just along the coast.


ONE WELL BEHAVED DOG ALWAYS WELCOME IN THE GRANARY APARTMENT.

    We spent a week at Humphries Cross Apartments and had a lovely time. It was great having a quiet base to return to after a day of sightseeing. The facilities were great, couldn't have wished for a better holiday.

    We were greeted by the friendly owner and shown to a spotless, well equipped apartment overlooking the pretty countryside. The apartment was very comfortable and well located, just a few miles from Rye's town centre.

    We were very grateful for the generous welcome basket. We've stayed in numerous selapartments throughout the UK and this definitely ranked amongst the best. The apartment was clean and well equipped with some very thoughtful touches. We loved the peace and quiet of the location, the grounds, the rabbits, the birds and the wildlife in general. As animal lovers, we were touched by the bench with all the tributes to your much loved pets throughout the years.
