Overview
In the heart of the South Downs National Park this coastal property is perfect for large groups of up to sixteen guests looking to celebrate an occasion in style. Boasting ample grounds overlooking the beautiful surrounding countryside, you can dive into the pool for a dip, sit under the stars in the hot tub or cosy up by the fire, the perfect spot to unwind with a good movie.
The house offers several charming spaces to socialise and unwind in. A large living room holds panoramic floor to ceiling windows allowing you to bring the outside in, with comfy sofas to snuggle down on and a fireplace for colder months. On a warm day, throw open the sliding doors in the kitchen and glide from inside to poolside with drink in hand, or take your meals at the large dining table whilst enjoying a gentle breeze. The modern fitted kitchen has all you will need during your stay, stocked with Miele appliances, a cold and hot water filtered tap, induction hob and dishwasher, offering everything you could need and more.

A further two double rooms, one with en-suite, benefit from views right out to the Bell Toute lighthouse, whilst a bunk bedroom and a further room with sofa bed complete the sleeping accommodation.
The outdoor space offers enviable views and a large expanse of lawn for games, play and picnics. The heated swimming pool is surrounded by sun loungers and palm trees, allowing guests to recline with a magazine after a refreshing dip before settling down to a BBQ lunch on the outdoor dining furniture. There are plenty of places to settle down with an evening glass of wine and enjoy the tranquil setting to its fullest.
