Good very comfortable some nice touches and very close to the beach - top step on the middle floor is a little dangerous as it is deeper than all the others and this could easily lead to a fall.

We are a group of mixed age family friends who live spread around the UK. The fact that this property is actually 3 flats enabled us to be "neighbours" for a long weekend and allowed us to keep the "group of 6" rule but see each other. We had a great weekend - lovely to be so close to the beach and we were happy not to be close to pubs, restaurants etc. The house has 3 large reception rooms, and 2 comfortable balconies, one big and two small kitchens, great views from the top room especially for beautiful sunsets! Comfortable and with decent bathrooms. Not in perfect condition, but for mixed age families that is more relaxing anyway! Some tips... The postcode fed into your sat nav will not take you to the house! Closest decent supermarkets are in Rye or Romney - the Camber shops only have the most basic things Take your own bread knife and a sharp knife. Take your own washing up things!

Large property with all you needed to make the holiday complete. Short walk to a wonderful sandy beach (except at high tide) and plenty else to do in area (we went to Battle, Dover, Hythe and Rye) as weather (Storn Francis) not always right for beach during our stay. The owner responded promptly to deal with a few minor issues and provided a wonderful assortment of cakes, etc on our arrival.

Just returned from a great week at The Ark! The weather was fabulous so we took advantage of the beach just across the road! It was perfect for the children in the party, low tide meant there was plenty of sand and shallow pools to play in. High tide meant lots of swimming in the sea from all of us. We loved Rye (15 minutes away) with its cobbled streets and little shops. We enjoyed the house, which had everything we needed! Bedrooms were comfortable and there was plenty of space for our family of 12! We had our meals either outside or around the big table on the ground floor. Evenings were spent with a drink or two on the comfy chairs on the first floor veranda reflecting on the day! We can recommend a trip to the New Inn at Winchelsea for good food! We would definitely book again!

The house was phenomenal and pictures do not do it justice! One of the best rentals I have stayed in and the host was great at communicating. Great choice for a friends holiday as the house is very spacious! Can not recommend it enough! We would without a doubt stay again!

We rented The Ark for a large family get together to celebrate my Dad’s 70th Birthday and I have to say that, whilst we enjoyed our stay, I was a little disappointed with the property. Whilst I appreciate that we were there the weekend of Storm Dennis and it was fairly extreme weather and that the property owner acknowledged that the house had been impacted by storm damage from the previous weekend (there was a section of felt flapping on the roof). As the rain came down we ended up with a number of leaks appearing throughout the house. The top floor lounge quickly became unusable as there was so much water on the floor, and we had water coming from the windows in the ground floor lounge. This became worse on the Sunday when water started coming through the light fittings which shorted the lighting system on the ground floor. I contacted the owner on two occasions regarding the leaks. The second time to highlight the water coming through the light fittings. On this occasion it took 6 hours before we received any response. And although I wouldn’t expect an owner to be ‘on call’ given the severity of the mix of water and electric, I would have expected a quicker response. And despite being told that this was due to the previous weekend’s storm damage, there was clear evidence that leaks that these have happened multiple times before. The wood flooring in the top lounge has obviously been subject to long terms water damage as have the leaks from the windows in the ground floor lounge. And whilst I appreciate that it was fairly exceptional weather, there is clearly work that needs to be done on the house that had not been done. The whole place needs a little TLC and does not quite live up to the photos on the website. Added to which the cleaners did not do a very thorough job and the house was not as clean as you would expect. So we left feeling somewhat disappointed.

Lovely location and plenty of space for our party of 16 adults and children.

Great house with plenty of space for the whole family. Amazing views from the balconies. We would all like to return in the future
