Property code: OC-92841

Discover the beauty of coastal Sussex when you stay at this dog-friendly retreat in Hastings. Sleeping six guests, the three-bedroom, three-storey villa takes in spectacular views out over West Hill towards the sea. Stroll over to the green open space right opposite to stretch your furry friend’s legs. Watch him bound in and out of the waves on beaches and set his tail wagging with excursions into the magnificent High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Follow your pal through into the open-plan lounge/diner, which like the rest of the house has a bold, New York loft-style feel to its interior design. Settle in here in front of the Smart TV or to listen to music through the Sonos speakers, while your contented canine stretches out and rests his weary paws for a while. Amble through to the kitchen to prepare meals for your hungry hound and to whip up homecooked dishes for everyone else to enjoy though at the table in the lounge/diner. Bid your chum good night downstairs then make your way up to the first floor to find a king-size bedroom and a double, both with TVs, plus a family bathroom. Another family bathroom is on the second floor, together with an additional king-size room. From here, you might even be able to see France in the distance on a clear day. Take your pup out into the courtyard with you on warm days to keep you company as you have morning coffee and plan the day of adventures ahead of you.

Walk 0.5 miles from the villa down to Hastings Beach, where there are many stretches that are dog friendly all year round. Hastings Country Park, 2 miles away, is a great place to exercise your happy hound while also taking in the sweeping coastal vistas.

This house is perfect for exploring Hastings but also getting away from it all and enjoying peace and quiet. It is very well equipped and comfortable. The hike up and down West Hill is challenging but our party of 2 adults and 3 children loved the challenge.

A beautiful home, very comfortable and in a good location with sea views. Very clean and good provisions. Steep hill back up from the town, but you can take the little hill carriage. Hastings has some lovely old pubs and restaurants and the old part has some great independent shops.

This is a very nice house with a high standard of fixtures and fittings, Good position for accessing the `old` town. Not ideal for older folks with any mobility problems as Hastings is VERY hilly!. Parking was not always easy and this was mid-March. Could be a problem in summer months. All in all a very good break blessed by some brilliant weather Read more(Not sure about Marilyn Monroe- she is a bit dominant in the nicely furnished lounge!) Hide
