First things first, Normancourt is very well located, being less than two miles from the A21.  Then there is the list of other "plus points" from extremely helpful and accommodating wardens, a delightful site with charm and character (was once a stately home) to its location in East Sussex with plenty of good locations nearby. Naturally there is Battle Abbey and the site of the Battle of Hastings just a couple of miles away, but a quick check on the historic buildings nearby, not to mention proximity to the coast (Hastings, Bexhill, etc.) and it will quickly become clear how much choice there is in this part of England. Well worth a visit, we'll be back and thanks to the very helpful wardens. All positive!
