Great spacious family holiday home. Very well equipped kitchen with everything we needed. Comfortable beds and easily able to accommodate our family of 6 adults and 3 young children.
We loved the large enclosed garden, perfect for the youngsters to play safely after a day at the beach. Perfect too for the adults to relax with a drink while doing the BBQ. Plenty garden chairs & large table. Sandy beach at west wittering worth the short drive.
We loved it 😎

Very nice. Not a single problem at all. One minute from beach and plenty of room.
4.9
We all enjoyed our stay, it’s always lovely to get together.
The house was very well equipped and we had a lovely BBQ on the Saturday before watching the England football team win in the semifinals.
A lovely meal at Billy’s where we had delicious fish and chips, mussels and fish curry after numerous starters.
Thank you also for the warm welcome of flowers and bread and chocolates. Wonderful surprise.
4.9
This is a great house for a large family with a very short walk to the sea and pebble and sand beach.
The 5th bedroom if needed does not have access to a bathroom without going outside which we didn’t realise until just before our stay.
More cleaning equipment would be good as there wasn’t a hoover only a small broom without even a dustpan and with four children under 7 staying this made keeping floors clean difficult.

We were blown away by this property; tastefully decorated, fabulous location in a private road, 1 minute from the beach, sleeping 12 of us comfortably with ample room to sit, socialise and eat. The garden is huge with large seating and lawn areas. We were blessed with sunshine and thoroughly enjoyed drinks and a BBQ on the patio, There were SUPs, surfboards and other equipment available for guests use; unfortunately it was too windy to take advantage but a lovely extra touch. The beds were all comfortable; everyone slept really well and there was plenty of extra bedding. The kitchen was very well stocked with utensils, crockery etc and there are 3 bathrooms. The house was very clean throughout and there was more than enough off road parking for our 3 cars. Esther is a fantastic host, great communication and was extremely kind to let us check in a little early and check out a little late. We were all very sad to leave; we made happy memories at Hilsea celebrating my mother’s 80th birthday. Thank you so much for allowing us to spend time there. Highly recommended!

Fantastic lovely house. Immaculately clean. Well equipped and fantastic location. Great communication and info from Esther. Thankyou for a great stay!
4.9
So many positives about this super place.
Location is wonderful. Literally a minute from the beach and an easy walk to local shop, coffee shop and amazing pizza! Just a few minutes drive to East Wittering with all you would expect from a small seaside resort.
Property itself was fantastic! A really great space and exactly as described. What surprised us was the beautiful garden and the equipment for water sports (we didn't use it, but was all available). This fab home has everything you could possibly need/want from a holiday let.
We will definitely be returning if you'll have us!
4.9
We had a lovely time at Esters. The house was as described with a lovely large garden we could let the kids run riot in.
We had 5 kids altogether aged (5-9 years) and the house was perfect for them all.
4.9
11 adults and 4 children enjoyed a lovely weekend here. Plenty of space for everyone, well equipped kitchen, large garden for letting off steam and unused energy after building sandcastles on the beach opposite. We didn't have time to use the surfboards or kayak but family members said we must come back later in the year.
4.9
We had a great stay at Hilsea. The beach is very close by and the house was extremely well equipped. The host was able to sort out our check-in problem swiftly which was appreciated.
4.9
The house provides some great facilities and is in a lovely location, but the description about beds and bedrooms is badly inaccurate and the pricing is way above the average price shown. Even out of season in January it cost us over 70% above the average price shown!
4.9
Beautiful property, well equipped and really homely. Esther is a very responsive host, thank you!
4.9
Great house - really nice to relax and catch up with family. House was well equipped. The only negative was the oven and cooker could probably do with replacing - cooking Christmas dinner in small old cooker was challenging.
4.9
We had a lovely time at the house - the house itself is spacious, well equipped and we had the choice of twin or doubles. Everything we needed was provided with a well stocked kitchen and comfortable bedrooms and seating areas. The garden and house are immaculate. The weather was beautiful so we took advantage of the paddle boards and spent the afternoon relaxing on the beach (which is a two minute walk).
I am already looking at renting the property again next year. Highly recommended.

The house is spacious and well equipped with a beautiful private garden. The road is quiet and the beach a short walk away. Bracklesham Bay is not busy like West Wittering and a short drive from Chichester and oyher attractions. Very suitable for young children.

Lovely house. Lots of living space for a large family group. Beach is over the (quiet) road. Everything you could need. Beds v comfy. Could’ve done with more storage space in the bedrooms, and another fridge. 6 adults and 2 kids need lots of food (and drink). Oh and a toilet/sink nearer the smaller bedrooms would’ve been good. Adults and kids had to trail across the house in the night which wasn’t great. I am being picky tho. It really is a great place.
Area very quiet. Couple of nice cafes - one a fair walk and another a long walk. Didn’t see lots of places to eat out in the evening tho. One we found was too full to accommodate us.
Beach is pebbles with flat wet sand when tide is out. Great for jumping in the surf but too rough for kids when we were there. West Wittering was better for a beach day with kids.
Enjoyed a very relaxing break with family - despite the weather which wasn’t great - in fact really horrible at times. Had one or maybe two decent days. Portsmouth rescued us for stuff to do on rainy days.
4.9
Modern spacious property a short walk from the beach. The garden is large, secluded and sheltered, ideal for outdoor meals
The property is well equipped and the owner is very helpful and responds to queries quickly.
4.9
We were traveling with immediate family and friends with two kids also. It was a little tricky because Google maps couldn’t pick up the house by its name, but it sorted out and the place was amazing.
But the real issue was when I mistook the checkout date, thinking we had scheduled one more day. As we were out at activities, Esther called and offered to pack up for us and hold the bags for the day. She was incredibly gracious and kind despite our mistake.
Thank you Esther for a great stay and for your kindness through a surprising situation. 6 stars for courtesy and communication!!
4.9
We came down for my mother's 90th birthday and the place was a hit for everyone. We all got to the beach, the youngsters brought their sailboards, we went in the sea and Mum loved sitting watching us all. The house worked brilliantly for all of us.
4.9
Fantastic beachside stay in a superb location. The house is beautiful, clean and spacious. Perfect for large groups, and a fantastic garden too for our evening BBQs with plenty of garden furniture.
It was perfectly equipped with everything you could need and the stand up paddle boards were a lot of fun!
Our host, Esther went above and beyond and even put away our shopping for us when the delivery arrived early.
4.9
The house is situated in an excellent location with close proximity to the beach and sea. With a large garden and plenty of outdoor furniture it was ideal for our family group. We all loved using the padel boards and kayak. A real home from home. 👍👍
4.9
A really lovely property that is very well equipped and comfortable. We stayed as a family and everyone enjoyed the many facilities available. We were met by Esther who was extremely friendly and had left us goodies which were perfect to celebrate the Coronation of King Charles 111
4.9
Lovely spacious accommodation. W upell equipped large kitchen.
Great decorative order. Could hardly be closer to the beach. Garden larger than we expected.
Only a three night stay, but the weekend was spoilt by four of our party suffering sleep deprivation. The large two tier bunk, creaked, squeaked and groaned every time the child on top moved. His parents were frequently woken. His father resorted to working on some film editing in the lounge at night. The bed in the main rear bedroom had the thickest mattress I have ever seen, yet was incredibly hard. My wife had little sleep and suffered with neck and back pain on our first full day. We found a spare duvet in a cupboard and doubled that over on my wife's side of the bed so she could sleep on it on the second night. I have slept on cruise ships, in many hired homes and countless hotels, never been so uncomfortable.
Great shame, the only thing that spoilt an otherwise perfect stay.

Perfect for our needs

A lovely property which was perfect for the whole family to be together to celebrate my mums 70th. The location is beautiful, 2min from the beach. Esther the host was very helpful and always got back to me straight away when I asked any questions. Thank you

Fabulous weekend, great location so near the beach. The house is really thoughtfully and well equipt. Esther was welcoming and available should we have needed her. A great venue for a familiy gathering of all ages 2 -86 years.

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful property with various family members, including young and old and some with mobility difficulties. The location was fantastic and the host was very helpful. Very comfortable with everything you need and more. Thank you very much.

Stayed for a girl’s weekend. Property was very clean and beautifully presented with plenty of space for us all. Wished we could have stayed for longer.
4.9
We had a great family break. Loved the closeness to the beach so no packing & unpacking the cars for a beach trip. Fabulous weather & lovely walks. Some issues with the house but nothing to deter.
4.9
A great house for a family of 12 spacious and well equipped lovely big garden and easy access to the pebble beach. Esther, the owner was very friendly and helpful, answering any queries immediately. Would definitely tecommend
4.9
Very nice property, with all the utilities and day to day items you need, in a brilliant location 50m from the beach. The beach here is very quite, a few dog walkers, some locals (end July) so plenty of space and quiet. A short walk away to the cafe and shops in Bracklesham Bay, and not much further to lots of shops and Pubs in East Wittering.
The property has a lovely large garden giving lots of space for children to run around. And large patio with lots of furniture makes an excellent outside area.
The house is stocked with lots of kitchen utilities, with a separate utility room and shower for keeping the house clean.
Separate lounge/dining room from the front lounge gives occupants several spaces to relax.
Would definitely come back to this property in this area.
4.9
A great place to stay and wonderfully close to the beach. One or two niggles with the kitchen but otherwise fine.
4.9
We had a weekend staying at this beautiful house for a surprise family gathering to celebrate my partners big birthday. The house has everything you would need and is perfect for a family with mixed ages. We were lucky enough to have good weather and enjoyed using the outdoor area and even managed a dip in the sea! Wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
4.9
The location of Hilsea could not be better. The children had such fun in the beach and in the garden. The beach changed daily and we often had it to ourselves. The house was a perfect size for us-plenty if space and great patio area. The grandchildren loved making toast on the fire pit! We would all stay again.
