<P> The Hundred Acre Wood of the Winnie - the - Pooh stories is in actuality Five Hundred Acre Wood in Ashdown Forest in East Sussex , England , where the Winnie - the - Pooh stories were set . A.A. Milne 's country home at Cotchford Farm , Hartfield was situated just north of Ashdown Forest , and Five Hundred Acre Wood is a dense beech wood that Christopher Robin Milne would explore on his way from Cotchford Farm onto the Forest . Five Hundred Acre Wood is long - established , having been originally sold off from the Forest in 1678 . The wood remains privately owned , being part of Buckhurst Park estate , and is not therefore generally accessible to the public , though two footpaths which are public rights of way to do , one of which is part of a long - distance footpath , the Wealdway , cross through the wood and may be used by members of the public . </P>
