Location
About the surrounding area of Three Oaks BarnBroad Oak & Brede is a small village in East Sussex, between Hastings and Tenterden, whose history is closely tied in with Brede. In 1030 the Manor of Brede was granted to the Abbey of Fecamp in Normandy and until 1416, Brede was controlled by the Abbey. It is outside of Hastings and not far from Rye and the gorgeous Camber Sands.
Hastings has a fascinating history. It was attacked by the French during the Hundred Years War and in 1377, a second attack all but destroyed the town. The Old Town’s architecture ranges from Medieval to Victorian with one of the oldest buildings, the Court House, being built around 1450. The town boasts many passages and narrow streets known as the twittens, many cafes, bars and restaurants and some excellent shops and art galleries. The Castle, originally built by William the Conqueror, lies in ruins at the top of West Hill and can be visited using the steepest funicular railway in Britain. The Hastings Museum and Art Gallery boasts an exhibition dedicated to American Indians, Grey Owl, an early conservationist who came from Hastings and John Logie Baird who pioneered television in Hastings. There are many architectural and cultural attractions including a theatre, parks and gardens. Hastings hosts man events including the Hastings Half Marathon, the Jack in the Green Festival, Hastings Beer Festival, Coastal Currents and the Old Town Carnival.
Rye, a Medieval citadel huddled against invaders and the sea, is today home to a myriad of art, curiosities and cosy pubs and restaurants. They serve the best that Sussex has to offer. Built on timeless tales and smuggled secrets, Rye offers charm and intrigue with nooks and crannies to explore and distant views across Romney Marsh to enjoy. St Mary’s Church tower is open to the public and offers the best viewpoint to show the warm terracotta roofs of the many timbered houses. These ancient, characterful buildings, cobbled streets and secret passages attract film crews in search of historical settings for period productions. The Rye Castle Museum was originally a bottling factory and now boasts a unique 18th century fire engine as well as relics from the town’s shipbuilding past. The Rye Harbour Nature Reserve has a wonderful network of criss crossing footpaths on the saltmarsh and shingle ridges with fabulous views across to Camber Sands and the cliffs of Hastings Country Park. It is a twitcher’s paradise with five hides where you can watch the wildlife. You can take boat trips or lessons in windsurfing, dinghy sailing or paddleboarding from Rye Watersports.
Camber Sands is a fabulous beach in the village of Camber. It is the only sand dune system in East Sussex, east of the estuary of the River Rother at Rye Bay, and stretches 3 miles to just beyond the Kent border.

Lovely!
It's a lovely cottage in a smashing location. We got used to the unsealed roads pretty quickly and found it very easy to get around. Recommended.

A stress free holiday
Three Oaks Barn has been carefully and tastefully renovated. It looks beautiful with rich oak floors and oriental rugs. The handmade beds are superbly comfortable. The real joy is the peace of being in the middle of a natural conservation area with its wild flower meadows, wetlands, wild horses and birds' song. It is down the end of an unadopted and rather rocky road so don't give up - there is ample parking and turning space once you reach the barn. We enjoyed the thoughtful hospitality of the owner of the barn. Anyone looking for a stress-free holiday would be amply rewarded.

Peaceful
A beautiful property, furnished to a very high standard with very comfortable beds and a well-equipped kitchen. We enjoyed the peaceful setting and all the wildlife. The owner was helpful and attentive and gave us a fascinating tour round the nature reserve.
