Exquisite!

We had the best stay here! The house is beautiful and cozy—I honestly wish my house looked like this (especially the bathroom). It was easy to find and all instructions were clearly laid out (with photos). I’d give this one 10 stars if I could. I hope to make it back some day!

Festive Getaway

The properry was as seen in the pictures. We were impressed with the cleanliness, as well as the little details, such as the underfloor heating and heated towel rails in the bathroom. It was spacious enough for our family of four. It is close to most attractions in and around Hastings.

Fantastic! Highly recommend 👏🏽

Fantastic stay for our long weekend! Coming home after a long days of Squash and a few beers to a nice cosy place! Walking into a pre warmed house on a cold winters night on our first day was the best first impression! We loved the small thoughtful complimentry gifts and it was warm and cozy!
