The perfect house in the perfect location

We booked the house for our family reunion and had the perfect week at this beautiful house. Esther the host was very responsive with communication before we flew in from USA and had left us some food and drinks after our long flight in which was generous touch. The house is beatiful with lots of rooms and space for us all. Its in great location right next to the beach and lovey walk nto the town..The town itself is perfext it had so many great shops. For food and drinks. And Chichester is a shirt drive away.

Absolutely perfect way for 3 generations to celebrate together

The property is fabulous. Every home comfort and more has been thought about. There are perfect sitting, socialising and relaxing areas both inside and outside the property. The kayak and paddle board and other equipment really added to our holiday experience and with the beach only minutes away they were used a great deal. We really had a fabulous time, thank you.
