Tucked away on a quiet shingle track, amongst an eclectic mix of homes, is this stylish seaside cottage. Set in an area of outstanding natural beauty, it makes the perfect base to explore this enchanting stretch of coastline.

Seakale is located in the heart of Rye Harbour village, yet only 2 miles from the enchanting, medieval town of Rye.

The cottage is arranged over three floors, accommodating up to 6 guests.

Seakale is dog-friendly and up to two dogs are very welcome to stay with no additional pet fees.

The cottage has been decorated in keeping with its coastal setting, together with quirky vintage finds. On cooler nights, simply throw a few logs in the wood burner for that cosy cottage feel.  White-washed floors and plantation shutters add to the 'beach house' feel, together with far-reaching views of the nature reserve, river and sea. The living area is open plan, with a wood-burning stove and Smart TV. Adjoining this is a spacious dining area seating up to 6 adults, with doors that lead out to the garden. Open to the dining area is a well-equipped kitchen. The kitchen is a very efficient space with all the appliances you would need.

On the first floor is the master bedroom with a king-sized bed, double wardrobe and chest of drawers. There is a family-sized bathroom with marble-topped twin sinks, and a spacious, deep bath with an overhead shower.

On the top floor are two twin bedrooms, with two single beds in each room, one with a blackout blind, making it ideal for young children. Both bedrooms have a chest of drawers and hanging pegs/space. The staircase is fitted with a retractable stairgate at the top of the stairs.

To the rear of the cottage is a long private garden that is child/dog-friendly, with an outside tap and hosepipe, handy for washing off muddy/sandy paws. There is outdoor furniture seating up to 6 adults and a Weber charcoal BBQ.

Attached to Seakale is a lockable barn providing plenty of storage for bikes or sporting equipment, such as a windsurfer.

FOR THE 'LITTLE PEOPLE' We have tried to think of everything to make a stay with little ones as easy and child-friendly as possible. You will find 2 travel cots, 2 stairgates (one fixed at top of 2nd staircase), bed rail, highchair, booster seat, plastic cups, plates & cutlery, fireguard, toddler step, toilet training seat, potty, and anti-slip bath mats, perfect for weekend visits when you want to travel light. PLEASE NOTE: The staircases at Seakale are wooden and we are unable to fit a stair gate at the top of the first staircase due to the design of the staircase. There is a fixed stairgate at the top of the 2nd staircase and a pressure-fitting gate fixed at the ground floor level.

PARKING: There is private parking for 1 car on the shingle area in front of the attached barn, although an estate car might find the space too tight. There is also free parking available on the main village street, which is just a short walk away.

PLEASE NOTE: The property may not be suitable for elderly or infirm guests, due to the wooden staircases, a small step from the reception area into the kitchen and access to the shower, which is over a large, deep bath.

Tram Road leads into a short section of unmade, shingle road, before reaching Seakale. The cottage can be accessed by driving very slowly through this section, especially during wet weather, when there can be surface water. This might not be suitable for very low vehicles.

Just a stone's throw from the property is the 800 acre Rye Harbour Nature Reserve, with paths endlessly crisscrossing in the directions of Rye, Winchelsea, Camber Castle and the beach. It provides an idyllic escape from the crowds at Camber Sands during the summer months. Here you will find outstandingly beautiful landscapes, whatever the season, with pools and lagoons and wide-open skies, perfect for birdwatchers, artists, dog walker, ramblers and cyclists alike. It's the ideal place to relax and unwind from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
