About the host
Hosted by Julie Maxted
We are a family from Horsham, W Sussex who bought No 5 Compass as a holiday home for ourselves, but also to rent out to holidaymakers too. We love the area!
Why they chose this property
With the most outstanding sea views, when we saw it was available to buy, we put in an offer straightaway!
What makes this property unique
Not only is the view amazing, it is right by a little beach, Cheyne Beach, where you can swim from.
