A fabulous unique property with views to die for, this well equipped cottage has everything you need for a short break or holiday. Karen has done everything you need to enjoy your stay. The cottage 'handbook' is the best we've seen, giving you all the information you need or would ask, and a few places to visit too. Parking is outside the cottage on the drive and entrance through the front door you have a galley style kitchen with everything you need, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and a coffee machine. To the right you have a living room/dining room and downstairs toilet and conservatory leading to a lovely cottage style garden. The garden has a shed with clothes airers and garden furniture in, Further down is a bench style table and BBQ. Most mornings we had a rabbit in the garden eating the grass! The second floor of the cottage has two big bedrooms and the bathroom. What gives the cottage the ultimate wow factor is the loft conversion. There is a huge bed, victorian style bath with handheld shower attachments, dormer windows looking west across the coast to Eastbourne and Beachy Head. The two big veluxes on the other side give you views eastwards across the bay to Dungeness, and on the clear days across to France. You can sit for hours watching ships up and down the channel. We had a couple of nights of storms that we sat and watched. Truly impressive! I can't not finish this review without saying that the neighbours were lovely too!

This was a lovely long weekend away for my birthday. The photos do not do this property justice. The location is beautiful and the views down the coast from either side of the house are stunning. There was plenty of space for myself, my husband, my son my mother and my sister along with two spaniels. Karen kindly provided a Stairgate as we never let our dogs upstairs and there was plenty of room in the dining area section for the dogs to sleep their crate. The whole area is wonderful dog walking country with lots of footpaths and stunning views. There are also lots of rabbits so should you have a rabbit happy dog You may need a little more work keep them under control! Our dogs Were very keen to get out of the garden to chase said rabbits and one of them did manage it but I have told Karen about the hole in the fence and I have absolute confidence that she will secure this as Karen has been incredibly communicative and very helpful. There are lots of stairs in this property and the beautiful main bedroom at the top does have sloping ceilings near the bed so you just have to remember that! Thank you, Karen for a lovely stay And it would be lovely to come back one day.

Wonderfully situated in countryside near cliffs with far views in all directions. Close to nature, sea air and peace. Easy access, parking, well-appointed cottage, friendly neighbour and welcoming host made for a care-free time. We were blessed with the finest weather this year yet, which was a delightful bonus. Would be happy to return for a longer stay and recommend to others.

We spent 3 nights in this lovely cottage within the country Park, the cottage is incredibly well equipped in the kitchen , the views are amazing, all the way along the coast, Pett levels, Rye, Camber sands, Dungeness and in one particularly clear night France! Karen responded to queries immediately and was an excellent host. I certainly recommend this cottage.

We had a great 4 night stay at this property. The location was unusual with outstanding views across the cliffs in both directions for miles. Great walks on the doorstep but near enough to Hastings and Rye that there were towns within striking distance. The cottage was well equipped and had everything anyone could need. It was also lovely to have our own parking space which made arrival and departure very easy. We were comfortable in spite of howling winds outside and equipment for cooking was great. What is listed as a third bathroom is a bath in the third bedroom and this would not be suitable for older visitors or anyone with a disability. As there were only two of us we were fine using the bathroom on the middle floor and would highly recommend the cottage as a holiday destination.

Comfortable and well supplied. Only very very slight gripes- the light over the bathroom mirror didn’t work; and only the one smaller size saucepan with lid didn’t seem quite enough! Everything else was beautifully supplied, clean and well chosen! We loved the location, quiet and spectacular and the neighbours were friendly too.

The cottage is just beautiful. Thanks to Karen for the brilliant stay.

The Coastguard cottage was much bigger than we thought from the pictures on the internet. We could have done with more hot water as there was 6 of us and 4 would have liked a bath. the log burner was great really cosy and warm. The National reserve was lovely great walks and scenery.
