Nestled in Pevensey Bay village, this sleek homestead has all the bells and whistles. The design is crisp and contemporary – there's a fully-equipped kitchen that's a dream to cook in, a luxurious bathroom with a rainfall shower and soaker tub, and a bright living space with a Griffin speaker system that's the perfect spot to sprawl out after a day in the sun. Out in the small garden, there are also a few surprises. Kids (and the young at heart) will adore playing pool and table football in the game room while adults can share a bottle of fizz in the sunshine. After grilling up some burgers on the barbecue, bubble under the stars in the hot tub – the ultimate way to end the day. But the best part is the location. Less than a five-minute stroll away is Pevensey Bay Beach, a pebbly stretch ideal for seaside walks. Also nearby is Pevensey Castle and there's a nice selection of eateries and a couple of pubs within walking distance, including one right on the beach. Your host provides a kayak, so if you prefer a more active holiday, spend the day rowing down the rivers or trekking the 1066 Country Walk, leading to Rye. Hastings, Eastbourne and Bexhill are all within driving distance too, so you'll be well placed for exploring the Sussex coast.
