About this property

Light, modern townhouse with patio, a minute from beach; child- and pet-friendly

This smart modern townhouse makes a fantastic family- and pet-friendly holiday home on the Sussex coast.

Downstairs you'll find a fully-equipped kitchen and an open-plan living space, where guests can relax and dine in comfort. The patio garden features a barbecue and seating.

Upstairs the master bedroom has its own en-suite shower room, while one bedroom is equipped with bunks and pull-out trundle for up to three children (or adults). There's a further single bedroom, ideal for an accompanying adult.

The house is located in a quiet residential street, 150 yards from the beach, where low tide reveals an expanse of shingle, sand and rock pools to explore. The centre of Worthing is a half-hour stroll along the promenade, while a short walk in the opposite direction brings you to Sea Lane Café, serving delicious cakes, and the Goring Greensward, where dogs will love to let off steam.

Shops, pubs and restaurants can all be found half-a-mile away on Goring Road parade.

A great house to stay. Well equipped (loved the fact that the kitchen cupboards are all labelled!), comfortable and lots of space. Really close to the sea with good parking. Would happily return. Owner was very quick to respond when we messaged before staying and very helpful.

This place needs a deep clean. As soon as we opened the door we knew is wasn't clean due to the smell. Never had this problem at other rentals.The bathrooms had scum on sinks and unclean toilets. The carpets hadn't been vacuum and the tiled floors were sticky. The leather settee and chairs were cracked and grimy. The bed linen was clean but old and faded. Uncomfortable old matressess. Kitchen equipment like saucepans and baking trays needed replacing. Even found dirty cups in the cupboards. Very disappointed as in a convenient place for beach and amenities. Informed manager but no response.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 June 2026
I have read these comments and apologise if the standard of cleaning fell short in some respects. The house got its periodic deep-clean on March 10, and the next is due on June 21. I responded directly to the guest on March 6 but I don't, frankly, get this level of criticism with others.

Lovely place for families

We have been staying for a week with three adults and two children of 3 and 6 years. The house is located in a small cul de sac, so there is only minimal traffic. The beach and sea are only a short walk of about 2 minutes away; bus stops, restaurants and shops are also within walking distance. The area is a bit off from the main attractions, which was perfect for us since it was very quiet at night. The kids enjoyed the enclosed space behind the house when we weren't out and about. The house is lovingly decorated, the kitchen is well suplied with cutlery, dishes and such. Only negative aspects were the unclean dishes our predecessors left (the dishwasher's sieve was rather clotted and they apparently didn't care the dishes didn't come out clean) and the rather superficial cleanliness of the house. However this didn't dampen our spirits much and the owner (who called to ask if we were alright) was very kind on the phone. Definite recommendation! :)

About the host

Hosted by Christopher Chadwick

Host profile image
I'm a British citizen but, currently, I live abroad. This townhouse is my base in the UK, where one day I hope to return. I enjoy coming here on holiday with my daughter and entertaining friends and family who live in the surrounding area.

When I'm away, it's a pleasure to share the house with guests. I always try to call and introduce myself. I hope you will enjoy staying here as much as I do!

Why they chose this property

Worthing these days is a thriving town with a fantastic choice of bars, restaurants and shops, arts and entertainment venues and watersports opportunities.

Further afield, West Sussex is a beautiful county to explore. The South Downs National Park is packed with open-air museums, stately homes, wildlife parks and Roman remains. Brighton, Chichester and Arundel are all within easy reach, while London is just an hour-and-a-half away by train.

What makes this property unique

It's great to stay so close to the sea. You can smell sea air and hear breaking waves, just standing outside the front door.

The property itself is stylish and contemporary, fitted with all mod-cons. You can eat, sleep and relax in comfort. The kitchen and dining area are well-suited to self-caterers. This is a real home-from-home!
