Dreeym / Our Communities / Foxbarrow
Get to know it
Foxbarrow is the quietest postcode we own: twenty-eight homes in clearings among 22 acres of oak, beech and hornbeam in the High Weald. The bluebells run the show for three weeks in spring and the tawny owls take the night shift all year. If your idea of traffic is a squirrel, this is the one.
Life at Foxbarrow
Every Dreeym community keeps the essentials — The Hearth, a guest suite for family, a workshop, allotments, EV charging — and then adds what the land suggests.
The social heart
The Hearth at Foxbarrow is half library, half log store. The fire circle outside hosts the summer solstice supper and the chestnut roast; the quiz is gentler here, allegedly.
The grounds
The wood is managed the slow way: coppice rotation, standing deadwood left for the woodpeckers, and a covenant that keeps 61% of Foxbarrow as woodland and ride, for good. The homes borrow the clearings; the trees keep the freehold, so to speak.
Homes at Foxbarrow
Filters here never hide a home — they bring the closest matches forward and mark what the others lack. Guide price and monthly pitch fee on every card. Pitch fee here: £185/month, reviewed once a year, pegged to CPI.
The lie of the land
Illustrative, not to scale — the real plan (measured, mapped and covenanted) hangs in The Hearth and comes with the paperwork. Tap a numbered plot to see the home.
In photographs
Every photograph captioned, in the order you'd walk it. Scroll the strip, or open any one full-screen — arrow keys work, and so does the back button.
Out and about
A weatherboard pub with a fire you could live in, a shop-post-office hybrid, and a churchyard full of yew.
Winner of ‘best place to live’ more than once; sailing, swimming and a twelve-mile shore path round the reservoir.
Twenty-five minutes to the Pantiles, the theatre and direct trains to Charing Cross.
What's on
Not a marketing calendar — the actual timetable, as it stands this month. Note what Sunday says. Both things matter.

Full chorus — blackbird, chiffchaff, a woodpecker at 0:22. Recorded from the fire circle.
Recording coming with the spring shoot — ask Sarah to play it down the phone in the meantime. She will.

Ask for Priya. She runs the green-woodwork courses and knows which clearing gets bluebells first.
