Perch Hill is situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty so we must be considerate to our surroundings. We do therefore ask that you take a moment to review the directions ahead of your journey.

To keep everyone happy and to avoid the narrower parts of the road, it’s imperative to access from the south end of Willingford Lane.

Before travelling to Perch Hill, please double check the date of the Open Day, Shopping Day or pre-booked course you wish to attend, as Perch Hill is not open to visitors at any other time.

directions by car

Local campaigning to protect the AONB environment and those of us who enjoy it has been successful in designating the special ancient route-way of Willingford Lane as a: ‘Single-track narrow road with no passing places for 2 miles’.

If using Sat Nav please ensure you add School Hill in Burwash as a via point. This way you avoid the dangers of the narrower end of the lane with minimal passing places, or use the post code TN32 5HL and then follow the road to Perch Hill.

If following a map, please avoid accessing Willingford Lane via Burwash Weald for the same reason.

When leaving Perch Hill, please turn left into Willingford Lane to avoid the narrower end of the lane.


directions by train from London

The journey takes just over an hour from London.

A taxi should be arranged to meet the train at Etchingham station, which is on the Hastings Line. It is very important to note there is not a taxi rank at the station; the journey is approx 15 minutes to Perch Hill Farm.

Please confirm with the taxi driver on arrival, which train you will catch for your return journey, they will then tell you the time that he will return to Perch Hill to collect you after your visit.

It is essential to book in advance, please pay the taxi driver direct.
