Overview
Property code: EHC37

Spacious contemporary property sleeping up to ten guests, enjoying a pleasant location just a few moments from the beach and a short walk from Eastbourne Marina.

A spacious cottage that will satisfy your yearning to bring everyone together under one roof, situated just a few minutes from the beach and the vibrant Eastbourne Marina with chic yachts to admire. You can spread out on this holiday with several living areas, gardens and plenty of parking. The walk-to facilities are superb, with restaurants, bars and a multiplex cinema to appeal to all tastes and ages.

 

This cottage is beautifully presented with classic furnishings and a real seaside feel from the decor. With plenty of space for everyone, and the joy is in the coming together at mealtimes around the large dining table with seating for all. There is versatile sleeping accommodation too with one large king-size bedroom on the ground floor plus a bathroom, and four further bedrooms upstairs. The kitchen is fitted and well-equipped, and there is space for many hands to make light work, plus an ice dispenser - essential for cocktails and cordials. Take your drinks outside and relax in the garden with good company and great conversation.

 

Pevensey Castle is a fabulous day out for everyone with a vast amount of English history oozing from the ancient walls; dungeons to explore, ghosts to meet and beautiful grounds to have fun and games in. There is also a cafe and restaurant and the occasional medieval joust; at a little less than 2.5 miles, it can be walked to from your cottage. Further afield, perhaps for some retail therapy, you have Eastbourne (3.5 miles) and Hastings (14 miles).

 

Dogs are charged at £20 each per full or part week.

  • 5 bedrooms: 1 super-king-size, 2 king-size (1 on the ground-floor) and 2 twins
  • Bathrooms: Bathroom with bath, separate shower and WC, and an en-suite shower room with shower and WC on the ground floor
  • Smart TV, plus additional TV and DVD in the second lounge
  • Wi-Fi included
  • Kitchen - oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine
  • Bed linen and towels included
  • Electric and heating included
  • 3 dogs welcome
  • Off-road parking for up to 3 cars
  • Pubs, shops, and beach within walking distance
  • Charcoal BBQ

Explore the historic village of Pevensey, just 2.5 miles north of the property, with its imposing ruined castle. Eastbourne is where you will find most attractions though, with the town's marina just a few hundred yards from your door. Here, wander around and spot the impressive yachts, enjoy a night out at one of the many restaurants or bars, or enjoy a cinema trip. The town centre itself is 2.5 miles away, great for browsing independent shops and eating in quirky cafes, with the main shingle beach and grand pier 4 miles from the property. Meanwhile, the bustling coastal resort of Brighton is 25 miles east; spend a day discovering the famous Lanes, the eclectic shops and eateries, and the local arts scene. Keen walkers, meanwhile, will delight at the many routes nearby, including the 5-mile walk to Beachy Head – Britain's highest chalk cliff.

We had a great holiday at the cottage. There were some great places to visit, however, if you want to lock up the car for the duration, everything you would need is just a walk away. I think the cottage would be ideal for a large family reunion - when covid allows.

We had a brilliant time! The separate lounge was great for the teenager :-) Just a couple of minutes walk to the sea, and very close to the restaurants in the harbour! The house was very well equipped and the interior is lovely. The rooms are spacious and the beds are comfy! The garden was great for the dog.

A great base for exploring the area. Despite being near to a camp site it was beautifully quiet and so close to the beach. The house was plenty big enough for our extended family of 9 and 1 dog, we all enjoyed a relaxed week. There were very few people around so social distancing was no problem and the supermarket was just up the road for supplies.Read more I would recommend this property to friends. Hide

Lovely cottage, good situation only a short walk from the beach and approx 15 mins stroll to bars and eating places. Very clean and and spacious, kitchen well equipped, only fault was the garden if you have young children, ok for older kids and adults, could do with some lighting.

Great house, very spacious, clean and comfortable with lovely interior decoration. Second lounge very useful. Garden doesnt meet high standard of interior, but fine for dogs and it has a visiting fox! Beach entirely shingle so sand castle builders may be disappointed. TVs only have Freeview so take your Firesticks!

Beach Haven was perfect for us. The beach was mostly empty, the sea changed everyday so loads to do for 4 boys. The house was SO close to the sea. There was plenty of room for all of us to have our own space & a lovely communal space. It really was perfect.

The property was ideal for a gathering of mixed ages as the downstairs bedroom and extra lounge were an added bonus. The kitchen was very well equipped and every need was thought about even down to dog biscuits and water bowl. Lovely pleasant flat walk along shoreline to the harbour and marina. Great holiday location.

Eastbourne is a bustling seaside resort on the south coast of England. It has been a popular British holiday destination since Victorian times. The town’s attractive pier and promenade is still a major draw for visitors in search of a traditional seaside experience – you can enjoy a long, level stroll along the sea front whilst enjoying an ice cream or some fish and chips. The pebble beach is a good place to park a deckchair and take in the sun, or paddle in the sea. Great for family breaks and as a romantic getaway, the town has much to offer all visitors. The South Downs Way starts in town and extends 100 miles eastwards to Winchester – one of the first stops on the National Trail are the imposing chalk cliffs of the iconic Beachy Head, a few miles to the east of town. Eastbourne is a big hit with train enthusiasts as it’s home to the Spa Valley Railway and the Miniature Steam Railway. Historians may like Redoubt Fort and The Observatory Science Museum (in nearby Herstmonceux). For all-weather attractions for children why not investigate Fort Fun or the indoor Motcombe Swimming Pool? Further afield, and within a one-hour drive to the west is Brighton, with its own pier, wonderful array of shops and eateries. To the west is Bexhill-on-Sea with its impressive art gallery, the De La Warr Pavillion, and long seafront. Just beyond is the old fishing town of Hastings with its new award-winning designer pier, ancient castle and fishing shanty town.
