Unwind in front of the warming flame-effect fire on cooler evenings, enjoying one of the games selected from the well-stocked cupboard for a fun night in. An attractive feature fireplace dominates the pleasant twin room on the first floor, with the king-size room on the same floor offering plenty of space to retreat away from the rest of your group. On the second floor, affectionately known as the Top Deck, you will find a bright twin room in the eaves.

We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. It was so clean, comfortable and well equipped. We stayed as a family of 4 with two small children and it was ideally located to keep them entertained the whole week. It is so close to the beach and walking distance to Princes park which has a lovely lake and two good sized playgrounds. We had great days outRead more at the miniature railway adventure park, blackberry farm, knockhatch and drusillas. All within around 20mins of the cottage. Would love to return! Hide

A really excellent holiday cottage. Nice relaxed vibes, family friendly furniture with plenty of rooms and space for the everyone! A toilet on every floor and the top floor bedroom has an ensuite. How good is that? Three different places to eat. On the patio at a reasonably sized table that seats six, in the kitchen, or more formally in the separatRead moree dining room. We had a lovely week there as only two minutes to the sea and a short walk to all the attractions. No problems parking the car! Hide

Just the lovliest cottage we stay in - beautifully decorated and cleverly modified.. Lots of kitchen equipment and plenty of cloths as well as plenty of dishwasher tabs instead of the measly couple you get in other lets.. Wonderful settees (so nice to have two settees instead of one and a hard chair!). Ideally situated for the beach with bus-stops Read moreat other end of road and great take-aways and THE best fish and chips in Eastbourne. Finally, there is generally very good parking right outside. Hide

Nelson Cottage is a very comfortable and well-equipped house. All the fixtures and fittings have been done to a high standard, with good quality furniture. It is located very close to the beach and the promenade - it is an enjoyable 15-minute, or so, walk into town along the front.

A thoroughly nice, clean, airy, and appropriately decorated property. The beech was only a 2 minute walk to the sea front. The kitchen was nicely fitted out; plenty of utensils to cook a variety of dishes. Including the potential to cook locally caught fish from one of the the fish shops situated near Eastbourne life boat station.
