Bateman’s is the family home of world-famous writer Rudyard Kipling, best known for The Jungle Book and Just So Stories. Tucked away in the beautiful Sussex countryside, this historic house is full of charm and inspiration.

Step inside and explore the home where Kipling lived with his family. The rooms remain much as he left them ‘untouched and unfaked’, filled with oak furniture, Persian rugs and fascinating artefacts that reflect his deep connection with India.

Outside, there’s even more to discover. Children can enjoy the natural play area, follow trails through the garden, and let their imaginations roam in the same landscape that inspired many of Kipling’s stories.

Bateman’s is a place for the whole family to enjoy, with exciting activities throughout the year, including storytelling, crafts, and seasonal activity trails.
