AntaliaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Mandy and Clive were very friendly and proactive hosts, supporting our stay with flexible check-in and check-out times, and being incredibly responsive to messages. Their accommodation is beautiful, with a homely-feel and love in the walls. The garden was perfect to wake up to in the spring mornings. Would definitely recommend!

Charming Cottage in a peaceful and rural setting

GillRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Diana’s beautiful countryside cottage is nestled into the East Sussex countryside, providing a quiet and remote getaway, but within easy drive of shops and several lovely Sussex towns and villages. Beautiful walks in the area.. in the winter bring your waterproof boots and enjoy!! Great for a stay with family or friends, lots of lovely spaces in the house ( the photos don’t do it justice). We stayed between Christmas and new year, so we appreciated and enjoyed the abundance of coal for our daily evening fires, providing a warm and very cozy atmosphere. Very well equipped kitchen with enough space around the table for 6 or 7 people. All our needs were met. Well worth a stay, I would highly recommend this place and we will surely return! Gill

Perfect period property garden flat with own gate

KatieRating, 5 stars4 days ago
This is a beautiful home from home, it felt like staying with friends. We visited at Easter and there were two chocolate rabbits waiting for the kids, which was a lovely touch. The kitchen, living area and main bedroom are spacious and this is a great area. Close to the beach, train station, bars and restaurants. A lovely stay and we’d go back again.

The Beach House, family friendly pad on the beach.

HayleyRating, 5 stars6 days ago
As a family of 6 with 4 kids (ages 2 - 11) all with different characters we loved our stay at the beach house and would definitely return. Sarah sent clear, easy to follow instructions for check in. A few stand out things that made our break excellent; the beachfront location, you literally walk out the back gate onto the dunes; the spaciousness of the house, we didnt feel on top of each other but plenty of areas to be together aswell; the cleanliness of the place was fantastic, it was also well equiped and nice little touches the kids enjoyed such as the board games. The area is also interesting and somewhere we have never explored before, we came for a more chilled few days so stayed local but still plenty to see. A couple of highlights were Dungeness nature reserve & the RSPB walks. Our youngest children enjoyed the play park which is a short walk, everyone liked the ice cream and fish & chips, shell collecting and the freedom of the beach on the doorstep.

Your guide to Eastbourne

Welcome to Eastbourne

Twenty miles east of Brighton, Eastbourne is a quieter resort town than its lively neighbour. That’s not to say it’s without its entertainments — the 1930s bandstand on its family-friendly shingle beach is ever-busy, as are the Victorian pier and theatres. But there’s a delightfully calm atmosphere about the town, where the presence of the 100-year-old Towner Art Gallery has fostered an artistic community and generated its own Little Chelsea of galleries and boutiques. Thanks to the Old Town, not to mention the many pretty parks and seafront gardens, Eastbourne maintains a village feel in some parts, befitting its location at the fringes of the South Downs. Meander through the wide Victorian streets of Meads, with their pretty parades of independent shops, and you’ll soon find yourself at the foot of the spectacular 167-metre chalk cliff of Beachy Head, surrounded by the pretty huts and chalets of the off-the-beaten-track beach at Holywell.


The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Eastbourne

The coast can get pretty brisk and breezy in winter. Walking it is certainly a more comfortable prospect between spring and autumn; spring is particularly pretty in Eastbourne, when the Victorian gardens are in full bloom, and a great time to stay in one of the area’s holiday cottages. The summer months are best for enjoying the beaches, and are also when Eastbourne puts on its top shows, from the nightly concerts at the bandstand to weekly fireworks displays and an international air show, Airbourne, in August. There’s international women’s tennis at its Devonshire Park Lawn Tennis Club in June, used by many players as a warm-up for Wimbledon, and in May, there’s the Magnificent Motors classic car show as well as Beer and Cider by the Sea, the first of two popular local beer festivals (the other’s in October).


Top things to do in Eastbourne

Old Town

Eastbourne’s most charming district is a step back in time, from the ancient parish church founded by the Normans to a 12th-century medieval-timbered inn that serves the local real ale. There’s also the pretty Gildredge Park, a host of independent shops and businesses, and even a Victorian swimming pool.

Eastbourne Redoubt

The circular sunken fortress just behind the beach was built in the 19th century as a coastal defence against the Napoleonic army that never arrived on England’s shores. You can walk its gun platform and parade ground for free, and explore its interior between April and November, while a café and a bijou cinema have also been built inside.

Pevensey Bay

There are plenty of pretty, historic villages to see around Eastbourne, including East Dean, Alfriston, Willingdon, and Jevington, but Pevensey, along the coast, is the only one with its own ruined castle. It was here that the Norman invasion began in 1066, and the surrounding flatlands have become a haven for birds and wildlife.
