Lovely house
There are plenty of shops, eating places and interesting towns nearby. Unfortunately the lido at Salt Dean is being renovated this year, but we loved Rottingdean, ten minutes walk away, which has many good pubs and tearooms, a lovely old CE church and a Catholic church.
There is also a park 5 minutes downhill from the house which is great for games for children.

Why The Owner chose East Sussex
The sea and countryside views from the house are what attracted us as well as its location being close to Brighton and the South Downs. We also found it to be an extremely adaptable house being able to accommodate up to 6-8 people. Also its quiet location with no hassle for parking etc yet very accessible for exploring Sussex..

Lovely house
The house was clean, well equipped, modern and stylish; the views from the balcony are wonderful and we spent many happy mealtimes out there.The owner was very helpful with any enquiries and it was a great base for outings to Brighton, Newhaven, Lewes and Worthing, as the bus services are very good.I would recommend it as a family house as the two bathrooms are very handy, but care would have to be taken with very young children as the garden has many steps.

Beautiful spotless house near Brighton
We stayed here in the May half term with four teenage boys and my husband and I. What first struck me was how clean it was and for me that is half the battle. All bedrooms were beautifully decorated and spacious. There was a bathroom upstairs and downstairs, a modern kitchen which supplied everything you needed for your stay and more even a cafetier, brilliant.
The garden was the wow factor. The decking with that beautiful view of the sea was heaven and was used even in our lovely British climate.
The house was in Saltdean which was about 40 minutes walk along the promenade to Brighton Marina which has a huge Asda and also bowling, cinema and many many restaurants another 40 mins will take you to Brighton.
We took our retriever Charlie and all round Brighton they accept dogs in pubs and there are too many walks to mention. Would I return absolutely it was fantastic for the boys who spent most of their time in Brighton and on the beach and for us it was so relaxing. Mike, the owner, made it easy booking from start to finish. We had a great time thank you
