Planning a weekend where walking and getting outdoors are at the heart of the trip?
Firebow Holidays provides self-catering accommodation in Forest Row for friends, couples and families planning walking weekends, active breaks and countryside getaways in East Sussex.
Hyrst Rise sleeps up to eight guests across four bedrooms, with three bathrooms, a large living and dining space, separate snug and garden, giving groups plenty of room to stay together.
With Ashdown Forest close by and Forest Row village within walking distance, you can spend the day exploring the countryside before coming back to one house to cook, eat and relax together.

Forest Row makes a natural base for a weekend built around walking.
Head into Ashdown Forest for woodland, heathland and open countryside, with plenty of opportunities to spend a few hours or a full day exploring on foot. The landscape is also famously associated with Winnie-the-Pooh, giving families another reason to explore the forest and surrounding area.
Staying in Forest Row means you can make walking the focus of the weekend without needing to spend the whole trip in the car. Head out into the countryside, return to the village for coffee, lunch or dinner, then make your way back to Hyrst Rise.
Ashdown Forest gives active families plenty of space to spend more of the weekend outdoors.
Plan a family walk, explore the forest and Pooh landscapes or simply choose a route and see where the day takes you before heading back to the house.
For friendship groups in their 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s, Forest Row also works well for a slower kind of active weekend. Go for a long walk, stop somewhere for lunch or coffee, explore the village, then come back for dinner and an evening catching up together.
With four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a large living and dining area, snug and garden, Hyrst Rise gives friends and families a comfortable base for a countryside weekend where getting outside can be as much or as little of the plan as you want.
