A very masculine house, low ceilings and quite dark. Book lovers will get their money's worth!
The garden is famous for its pear trees, and now in April the tulips are blooming beautifully.
We didn't find the mill particularly interesting - even though it is highly praised - but the house and garden were beautiful.

Bateman's is a 17th-century house located in Burwash, East Sussex, England. Author Rudyard Kipling lived in Bateman's from 1902 to his death in 1936. His wife left the house to the National Trust on her death in 1939, and it has since been opened to the public.

Rudyard Kipling's estate in East Sussex is a wonderful place that is managed and maintained by the National Trust. Here you can stroll through the orchard, the vegetable garden and the formal garden. Then you can visit the house from 1634 and the old mill, where Kipling had a generator installed early on to supply the house with electricity.

Here they are trying to make the garden a perfect place for insects and especially for bees. To this end, a lot of experimentation is being done with flower meadows - you can wander through at least one of them during your visit.

The house looks very grand and elegant, but turns out to be a gloomy block inside - as is often the case with these old, historic buildings.
