The modern detached house located in Hastings, East Sussex, offers a spacious accommodation option for families or groups, comfortably sleeping up to 16 guests across its six bedrooms. With two bathrooms equipped with both baths and showers, guests can enjoy ample facilities for their needs. The property features a large communal living room and a fully equipped kitchen, complete with essential appliances such as a fridge, oven, microwave, and dishwasher. The expansive garden connects to the scenic East Hill Country Park, providing easy access to clifftop walks and beautiful natural surroundings, all while being just 600 meters from the seafront and 500 meters from the charming Hastings Old Town.
This house serves as a weekend family home rather than a serviced holiday rental, setting appropriate expectations for guests. While the owners strive to ensure a comfortable stay, they emphasize the homely atmosphere, inviting guests to reach out for local recommendations or share their discoveries during their visit. The property is accessible by free on-street parking directly outside, making it convenient for guests traveling by car. However, it's important to note that there are 16 steep steps leading up to the house, which may pose challenges for elderly visitors or those with mobility issues.
Inside the house, guests will find that four bedrooms and one bathroom are located on the ground floor, while the upper floor houses two additional bedrooms, a second bathroom, and a lounge/games room. Bed linen is provided, but guests are expected to bring their own towels and consumables. For those who require towels, they can be rented in advance for an additional cost. The owners do not charge a cleaning fee, but guests are responsible for leaving the house in its original condition, disposing of their own rubbish and recycling at the end of their stay, with instructions provided in the house manual.
The pet policy allows for well-behaved dogs, subject to prior agreement, with a flat rate fee per dog and a refundable damage deposit. Situated in the heart of Hastings and close to the beach, the property is surrounded by natural beauty, including Hastings Country Park and Summerfields Woods. Cultural attractions such as the Stables Theatre and Jerwood Gallery are also nearby, while family-friendly activities can be found at the Blue Reef Aquarium and the East Hill Lift, making this location ideal for a variety of guests seeking both relaxation and adventure.
