Wonderful
What a fabulous stay we have just had. The Cottage was easy to find, and plenty of parking close by. The cottage was clean, comfortable and very welcoming. We had everything we could have possibly needed. Location was perfect for us. A short train ride to Brighton, and lovely relaxing coastal walks from our front door. Lots of pubs restaurants, takeaways and cafes very close by and a Morrisons, Tescos and Co op within a short walk. :)

Beautiful Cottage
When we arrived the entrance front door and window were very dirty I was thinking what have I done . Access to the cottage was simple and once inside I was amazed firstly at the size of the cottage , much bigger than I thought , secondly at the beautiful furnishings and decor . It was spotlessly clean and very well equipped , there was nothing that hadn't been thought of .I had one slight issue with the Internet , contacted the owner who dealt with it quickly and efficiently . The cottage is well situated for shops quite a few very good restaurants and pubs we had some lovely meals . It's a two minute walk to the sea front , we were lucky to have good weather so a stroll along the front was pleasant . We definitely will return hopefully later in the year .

Comfortable stay
Had a lovely stay at the cottage - the pictures don’t do it justice- it’s really cosy but spacious at the same time. Well stock kitchen with everything you need including washing products and spices, oils etc. Beds very comfortable and lots of nice lighting Lots of nice artwork around the cottage which added to the ambiance, good WiFi too. Great location for the seven sister bs lots of eatery’s and supermarkets nearby. If I had to say one negative, it would be quite noisy fromRoad outside but that’s urban living and ear plugs helped. Would book again

Excellent place to stay in Seaford
Great communication with Celia from the start. She was really quick at replying to any questions. The cottage was spotlessly clean on arrival and just perfect for our needs. It contained everything we needed for a most comfortable and relaxing stay. She had thought of everything. We had a small issue with the heating but the whole thing was resolved in next to no time. Nothing was too much trouble.

Cosy home for a long weekend
Very attractive and cosy cottage in centre of Seaford, beautifully furnished and well stocked with sets of glasses, cutlery and crockery. Nice to find kitchen essentials of tea, coffee, sugar as well as herbs, spices, oil and vinegar. Bathrooms equipped with soap, shampoo as well as cleaning agents. Kitchen drawers also had spare lightbulbs, scissors etc, so pleasing to find these essential extras rather than sterile empty cupboards. We are delighted to have found this excellent property and hope to return next year.

Alles perfekt!
Wir hatten ein paar schöne Tage in Seaford, machten auch Trips nach Brighton und London, wofür wir den Zug benutzten, denn der Bahnhof ist in weniger als 5 Minuten zu Fuß zu erreichen. Das Cottage war wie beschrieben, sehr sauber und es fehlte an nichts.

A lovely cottage in the centre of Seaford. Although no official parking it was easy to get a space very near the property. Well equipped and warm. Brighton,Lewis and Eastbourne all easily reached. Nice walks on cliffs or seafront.

Very cosy and nice cottage.
The cottage was very nice, clean, cosy and well equipped. It was very centrally located in Seaford and you could easily find it based on the description. The communication with the owner was very good and friendly. The location is perfect to explore Seven Sisters, Beachy Head, Brighton and Eastbourne. Only on Saturday evenings it is difficult to find a parking space near the cottage.

Wonderful holiday location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay from start to finish. Contact with Celia was very pleasant - quick to respond and quick to provide all the required information. The cottage was exactly as described and excellently located. Everything was within walking distance: the sea, Seven Sisters, supermarkets, pubs and restaurants. And the coastal bus was just around the corner for going further afield. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely home!

Nice cottage close to the sea
The cottage is nice and very convenient in the small city of Seaford. There’s a long beach not very crowded and next to magnificent cliffs. Brighton and Eastbourne are close and can be reached frequently by buses. We enjoyed the stay very much and really can recommend it.

Lovely cottage
It’s a great cottage to stay in with excellent location. The kitchen is very well equipped, but some of the tea and coffee was mouldy, so we disposed of those. It would be great if the plinths under kitchen sink can be fixed (especially if you bring a pet) together with kitchen sink plugs. There were also loose ‘plinth’ tiles behind bin that can do with fixing. But great stay and we will miss Gannet Cottage. It’s also a very pet-friendly place and our cats really loved it there.

Enjoyable Stay in Gannet Cottage
Gannet cottage was very cosy and met most of our requirements. Location was excellent in village centre and close to sea, station and bus stops. Therefore easy access to Eastbourne, Brighton and local attractions. There was a good amount of local information in the cottage. Plenty of good eating and drinking places very close. Upstairs the cottage was lovely and bright however the downstairs living area was rather dark especially for reading. We followed the instruction for putting out rubbish and recycling as we understood but they were not very clear. Instructions for washer dryer would have been helpful. Overall a great 10 days holiday.

About the host

Hosted by Celia Gilbert

Host profile image
Hello from Brian and Celia, We now live in France where we successfully rented our beautiful normandy cottage for holiday rentals for 5+ years. Last year we bought a lovely cottage in Seaford, which we stay in when we are over, but are making available for holiday rentals when we are not there. Therefore it is furnished with all the comforts of a home from home

Why they chose this property

We chose Seaford, due to its accessibility to the Newhaven port, but also its brilliant transport links by train and bus around the local area and to London. We enjoy being in the centre of a busy village with lots of independent and chain shops with a variety of restaurants, bars and cafes. We love being a short walk from the beach, with fabulous walks across the downs and a short drive from many picturesque villages

What makes this property unique

A home from home with easy access to London, Brighton, Eastbourne and many local beautiful villages. Close to the beach, train station and bus routes a stones throw from the sea and many wonderful country walks
