Bateman's Lane
Burwash, England TN19 7DS
Once the home of author Rudyard Kipling, celebrated for stories like The Jungle Book. Built in 1634, this Jacobean house is in the Sussex countryside. Soak up the atmosphere of Kipling's study and enjoy the serenity of the formal garden. Explore the wider estate which influenced many of Kipling's poems and stories. Bateman's is very much a family home that feels as though the Kiplings have just gone out for the day. Enjoy a break in the Mulberry tea-room, serving hot and cold drinks, light lunches, ice cream and homemade cakes, with indoor and outdoor seating. Plus, the Oast House shop is filled with books, toys, plants and local artisan products. Free entry and parking for National Trust members. Non-members £4 per car and normal admission. Last admission to the grounds and house 30 minutes before closing. Open all year round, except on 24 & 25 December.
