Burwash is a highly regarded village – not least for its attractive tree-lined high street where many of the properties were built in the 18th, 17th and 16th centuries and has origins dating back to the 11th and 12th centuries. It has two pubs, a general store, a cricket club, all weather tennis courts, sports pavilion and playing field. There are also excellent schools in the area, including Burwash Primary School which has an Outstanding Ofsted rating. It is perhaps best known for the Grade I listed National Trust property, Batemans, where Rudyard Kipling lived between 1902 and 1936.

The nearby towns of Heathfield and Battle provide good shopping facilities and other services and slightly further afield, the larger towns of Tunbridge Wells (16 miles approx.), Hastings and Bexhill (15 and 13 miles respectively) provide a comprehensive range of services and amenities. Train services at Etchingham and Stonegate (3.3 miles and 3.5 miles) have a good service into London Bridge and Charing Cross.
