Step inside this idyllic Sussex farmhouse

An idyllic garden pond with rowing boat is home to the ducks.

This open-plan kitchen was decorated with a cream scheme to detract from its low ceiling. The pine farmhouse table and chairs are perfect for a classic country kitchen. On the dining table are pots of home-produced honey.
