    A Perfect Cottage in a Beautiful Town

    Nothing. We loved both Lewes and this delightful cottage for your stay

    The cottage is located in a lovely quiet cul-de-sac, in a delightful and distinctive part of Lewes, away from the centre, yet only a 10 minute walk away from the heart of the town (5 minutes if you hop on the regular bus service). The period cottage itself is very spacious inside with both a conservatory and a small courtyard with outside table and chairs. It has an excellent kitchen and very good bathroom. Within a minute or two’s walk from the cottage are two delightful pubs and a lovely small coffee bar called ‘Hannah’s’. If you wish to stay just outside the busy centre of Lewes in a lovely part of Lewes but within easy walking distance of the centre, I highly recommend this property.

    Lack of dedicated parking space could be a problem for people with mobility problems but there is good on-street and off-street parking nearby.

    Well appointed and maintained. Good range of kitchen equipment and facilities. Good location.

    It was a lovely stay in the cottage which was clean, well equipped and a really comfy bed and sofa bed. The host was friendly and helpful with good advice. The cottage was in the perfect location to explore Lewes and Brighton with direct buses and trains regularly into Brighton.

    Nothing.

    Absolutely beautifully decorated with such a vibrant and cosy feel. We loved everything about it! Joanne is a fabulous host and you could not want for more. This will be our 'go to' place to stay when in East Sussex. Lovely touches, excellent communication. Lovely location opposite the bus stop to Brighton. We enjoyed trips to Seven Sisters Country Park and Cuckmere Cove, where we hired bikes to ride down to beach and through Friston Forest. We took a fab boat trip to Seven Sisters from Newhaven Marina, Branching Out Adventures zipwires and high ropes, Brighton most days, Lewes Castle and Virginia Woolf's Monk's House. Recommend all these. Tea Garden too in Lewes for an afternoon tea. Loads of great places to eat locally.

    No parking at property although ok to drop off luggage. County hall car park very convenient but have to pay to park from 8am. Minor inconvenience that wouldn’t stop me visiting again

    It was clean and had everything I needed. Attention to detail made it special, ie boxes of tissues in the rooms, gift of chocolates, biscuits, milk and wine. Host was on hand to answer messages and made me feel welcomed. Good location for visiting many great places not too many miles away.

    We love everything about this place! It is so comfortable and clean and Joanne really goes far beyond any other host to ensure that you have the best stay - her attention to detail and thoughtfulness is really special. This is the second time that we have stayed here and it is now the only place that we will stay when we come down to Brighton. This is also the only place that we have ever stayed that we have been able to give 10/10 for (for the second time!).

    The only problem we ran into was that we had access to only one key. When we left on separate trips, we used the lock box to leave the key for the first to return.

    The location was perfect. Everything worked as it should. It was a very nice place to call home during our stay in Lewes.

    It was difficult to find parking nearby and had to adjust heating or it was very cold. The staff were helpful regarding both so it was fine but just keep in mind.

    In the evenings it was a bit chilly for us--it would have been great if there was control for the heating. Not having the ability to start the heating was the only downside for us at this place.

    We went to Lewes on a personal visit for a couple of days. This was a lovely little cottage, it was in a very central location yet very quiet. We loved it. It had everything--natural light, air, freshness, cleanliness, and all the mod cons. The wi-fi was very good and mobile phone signal strength (which I required from time to time) was also very good. The parking was also not far. [Though the council needs to improve the lighting in that parking lot]. All in all it was a very pleasant stay.

    It was unfortunate that we couldn't park in the cul de sac. We had to park in a nearby car park, which fortunately was free overnight but you had to pay from 8àm to 5pm every day.

    This is a lovely property, very tastefully decorated, furnished and equipped. It's a short walk into the town centre. We appreciated the welcome pack on arrival and all the information provided on arrival.
