Lovely place

Great location, really enjoyed the walk through the park to get to the beach and to nearby Rustington. The accommodation was clean and tidy, nicely stocked and enjoyed the sunshine coming through the place. Shower was nice and powerful and the bed was very comfortable. Only a small suggestion; perhaps a slightly bigger breakfast table as it was tricky to get both of our plates etc on there. Overall great stay and would return.

Thank you for your appreciative comments. I am searching a suitable table but in the meantime will move the dropside wooden table from the bedroom to the seating area, I could have done it at the start sorry about that. I look forward to meeting you again.

Nice flat near to the seafront

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It is well equipped for a short stay and was very clean. It is about a 5 minute walk to the seafront. We had good communication with the property owner. One small thing is that the ceilings are quite low in places but we got used to that. We would recommend this property.

Lovely getaway apartment

Perfect for our stay in Littlehampton visiting family. The studio flat was cosy but had all the things we needed. The bedroom and bathroom were clean and spacious. The lounge/kitchen/diner was small but perfectly adequate. Jennie was the perfect hostess too. She has paid a lot of attention to detail inside the studio flat. The location is very good; it is quiet and the beach and a lovely big park a few minutes walk away. Highly recommended!!

Highly recommended!

The accommodation is very well appointed with everything needed for a short stay, clean and comfortable. The use of the space is very clever, with your own private entrance and completely separate from the main house. The bed is very comfortable and the ensuit is spacious with a great power shower. The sitting room and little kitchen is perfect for breakfast and heating up meals, even with a little dishwasher, which was a pleasant surprise. We were in Rustington visiting family over the Christmas weekend and this was the perfect base for us. Thank you Jennie for your hospitality.

This was just what we were looking for. Booked very last minute, walkable to the beach (the quiet end of the beach). My main concern was that the apartment would be hot and stuffy - it wasn’t at all in fact the opposite. It was light, airy, clean and very functional. The bedroom and bathroom were lovely and spacious, the living area is compact but brilliantly designed to work well. Everything was thought through. We really enjoyed our stay!

About the host

Hosted by mrs JENNIFER and TERRY PRICE

Host profile image
We have recently returned to UK from living in Spain where I managed Holiday rental villas including our own property for about 8 years. Prior to that we had a bungalow with 2 bedrooms offered for Bed and Breakfast near Chichester and were delighted to welcome the many overseas visitors that were drawn to the areas attractions.

Why they chose this property

The attraction of the Rustington Area is being able to walk everywhere on the level and our situation being only a mile from the sea avoids the harsher climate of the seafront.

What makes this property unique

The local park and newly built Gym are on our doorstep and provide easy exercise opportunities in a scenic setting.
