“Great location. The property is in dire need of love and attention.”
+The location of the property is perfect if you want to be close to an almost empty beach.
−The decor and furnishing are looking tired and scruffy. The house could do with a good scrub from top to bottom as there was quite a bit of dust, established cobwebs (some with spiders), and squashed dead insects on the roller blinds. All of the broken light fittings need replacing as do the rusty radiators and towel heater. The black mould in the bathroom needs attending to as does the water that leaks from the corner of the shower screen onto the bathroom floor.

“It was perfect”
+We loved the peaceful location of this quirky beach house, it was situated perfictaly for our days out. The pictures on the walls,soft furnishings and bits and bobs , were very much to my taste and a refreshing change from the blandness of some othr holiday accomadations. I loved the sea breaze gently blowing and sound of the sea through the open windows.The beach was beautiful for walks in the everning. The beach house was historicaly interesting.
−I couldnt find a washing line

“Great stay for a week in October.”
+Cosy little cottage nicely situated close to seaside. Very calm. Also, good location to visit eg Dungeness, Rye, Rye Harbour, Sissinghurst Castle and Garden, Bedgebury National Pinetum. Kids, aged 5 and 7, had lots of fun.
−It is close to the sea, however, during high tide not to the beach. Also, no Pub/Inn within walking distance.

“Disappointing stay, be aware of hot water and heating issues”
+The location, bus ride from Rye, next to the sea with great car free promenade to walk along the ocean.
−We had previously stayed at one of the Coastguard cottages a couple of years ago, so were very much looking forward to staying again, albeit at one of the others next door (The Coastguard lookout). Well, sadly, we were disappointed this time. When we arrived, the first thing we found was the kitchen worktop and handles were sticky to the touch, meaning not clean properly. The furniture was tatty and covered in throws and blankets to hide its state. The carpet was fraying, and the toilet roll holder had been removed, leaving a couple of holes. There was no cooking utensil. Now the most annoying part...the hot water stops heating around 10pm. The online guide that was sent with the booking contained information on how to control the heating, including a PIN number if the 'Nest' smart thermostat was locked, as well as promising hot water to be on at all time. There was also a contact number for the owner if there were any issues. Well the cottage was a little cold in the evening, so following the guide, we attempted to turn up the heating a bit to find that it was locked and the PIN would not work. I tried to have a bath that night, which the hot water ran out halfway, leaving us to r

“Wonderful location, lovely beach nearby, nice house, great stay”
+Fantastic location ( ideal with kids and a dog ), lovely house. Pretty decoration. Brilliant communication from owner. Clear instructions. We had a short, but wonderful stay. Short drive away from Rye and cambersands beach, but 2 min away from local beach.
