Kitwish sits in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a wonderful area of East Sussex - depicted in ''The Vale of Heathfield' which was painted by JWM Turner in 1818. The cottages and houses which surround the church and the Inn are magical and create the charm and character of the village - Kitwish is no exception.
There are numerous country walks in the area and a thriving cricket club with its unrivalled views provides a focus for many of those who live in and around the village. Also within a short walk, there is All Saints and St Richards Primary Schools and Heathfield Community College which is a highly regarded state secondary school.
The old market town of Heathfield is about 1.75 miles away providing a very good range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and other services and amenities. Tunbridge Wells lies about 14 miles to the north providing a comprehensive range of shopping and recreational facilities. Eastbourne, on the south coast, is about 18 miles providing an equally comprehensive selection of shops, services and amenities.
There are bus services in Heathfield and the nearest stations are at Stonegate (6.5 miles approx.), Polegate station (approx. 11.5 miles) and Buxted station (about 8.5 miles) - all providing a very good service into central London.
