This stylish place to stay is perfect for group trips. Just 10 mins drive from the beach town of Shoreham, or 20 mins into Hove & Brighton for all the wonderful experiences they have to offer. It's uniquely situated in historic Upper Beeding where the South Downs Way crosses the South Downs link - So great if you're into walking or cycling. But the house is brand new, created to a very high specification with excellent mod cons, so it's is very comfortable if all you want to do is chill out.
The space
Our home is a brand new spacious 4 bedroom town house spread over three floors. It is recently finished to a very high standard. It's minimalistic but very comfortable, and ideal for hosting a small dinner party / celebration.
The kitchen is very well equipped to cook most main meals. There is an oven and microwave, fridge-freezer and a dishwasher, toaster and kettle. We have saucepans, roasting pans, frying pans, very sharp knives, utensils, and serving dishes. Plenty of crockery and glasses so you'll certainly be able to rustle up an awesome roast, or a sumptuous curry with the kitchenware we have provided but if you feel like baking a cake, you would need to bring additional items (such as a food processer / blender/ baking tins /scales) as these are not provided.
Cotton bedlinen and a throw is provided for all four beds, and a bath sheet, hand towel and face cloth are provided for each guest. There are two hair dryers in the house, usually kept in the two master bedrooms.
Each bedroom has a chest of drawers for unpacking your clothes. There there are wardrobes in the master bedrooms, and hooks in the smaller bedrooms.
There is also a washing machine, and an airier, an iron and ironing board, should you need to launder anything.
We have a 'No Shoes' policy at all times in the house so we recommend that you bring your slippers.
The Smart TV in the lounge will enable you to login to your preferred streaming accounts so that you can watch whatever you like whilst you stay. It also has an airplay facility for your favorite music but if you have a portable speaker we recommend that you bring that too.
Basic condiments and tea, sugar and coffee are also provided.
A child's high chair is available upon request - It is wooden and adjustable to suit an infant up to a large toddler. It has straps and a removable food tray.
There is a toilet on the ground floor with a douche spray. There is a main shower room with toilet and douche spray on the second floor, and an en suite shower room with toilet and douche spray on the third floor. There is no bath. Shower gel and shampoo are complimentary.
There is underfloor heating on the ground floor, radiators on the upper floors, and, should we have a ridiculously uncharacteristic heatwave during our British summers, there are also air-conditioning units in the dining space and three of the bedrooms.
The items shown in the photographs are available for your use. We do keep a full inventory should you wish to know every item in the property that is available to you whilst you stay. If you have any questions, do feel free to ask.
Within walking distance you will find a well stocked local shop, a coffee cart, several local pubs, a couple restaurants, and more to discover. We also have easy access to the River Adur, the South Downs way, and the Southdown's link.
You can walk to the beach in Shoreham down the river path but it's a 4.5 miles each way so it's only recommended if you really like walking!
Public transport is available to Shoreham, Hove and Brighton.
