Located on a quiet shingle beach, this property is packed with seaside charm, making it the perfect coastal bolthole for families or groups of friends. Wake up to panoramic sea views and enjoy your morning coffee on the large decking, before heading out to explore nearby Pevensey village, Eastbourne, and beyond.

 

Light and airy throughout and entered via some steps, the open-plan home is flooded with natural light, with large windows and bi-folding doors letting the outside in. At night though, the space becomes a warm and comfortable haven, with the wood burner gently crackling as you snuggle on the sofas and bean bags. On warmer evenings, throw open the doors and step outside, sinking into serenity as you watch the gentle waves from the natural beach garden, which leads directly onto Pevensey Bay beach. It’s a great spot for a delicious al fresco dinner, the tantalizing smell of barbecued food mixing with the fresh and salty sea air. Throughout the property, you’ll be welcomed by a subtle and homely decor, perfectly blending with its enviable waterfront location.

 

Enjoy a short walk to Pevensey (1.5 miles) and discover its striking castle, now an English Heritage site. Eastbourne is just a little further along the coast (5.5 miles), where you’ll find its famous pier and the Sovereign Harbour, as well as galleries, fantastic eateries, and fun amusements. The Observatory Science Centre (also 5.5 miles) and Eastbourne Miniature Steam Railway (4.5 miles) also offer great days out that the whole family are sure to enjoy, while animal lovers should head to Drusillas Park at Alfriston (10.5 miles) to meet the lemurs and penguins.

If you're looking for a spot right on the beach, this is for you. Wake up to a fab view every day. If you're bringing a dog, bear in mind that the outside space is not enclosed, there is no gate meaning your dog could run down onto the road if they're that way inclined, but plenty of room for them to run on the beach.

We were delighted by the cleanliness and standard of the cottage. Looking out from the main kitchen/lounge area - directly to the beach and sea was wonderful, from a warm and cozy setting. We enjoyed two very long walks (both directions from the cottage) along the pebbly beach, which certainly blew all cobwebs away. The bottle of Prosecco and TruffRead morele Chocolates was a lovely touch upon arrival. The beds were very comfortable with lovely crisp, white linen. Hide
