Jane was a superb host. Brilliant communication and really helpful tips. The property itself is wonderful. Cosy, clean and well equipped. We had a great weekend and will definitely stay at the turret again if we return to Battle.

A comfortable, clean and very quirky little house oozing with character.
Little Turret is a unique property in an ideal location for exploring many attractions across Sussex and Kent. We visited in May but it would be lovely and cosy in the winter months too.

We really appreciate this positive review and would welcome these guests back anytime. Our property was left in an immaculate condition.
The house is so pretty and cosy to stay in. Of course it is small and of course, when one is 6'7" like me you'd bang your head against the beams but we had a great stay! Bed is comfortable!

Hi Eric and Cora
Thank you for your lovely review. Hope your head has recovered from the beams. Thank you for leaving our house so immaculately clean and tidy. It was a pleasure to host you.
Jane
We absolutely loved our stay - the Little Turret was everything we hoped for. It is full of surprises with all the charm of a bygone era and plenty of personal touches to make it special. Would have no hesitation in staying again. Thanks Jane,
Great hosts, well presented and interesting property, quiet area to relax, perfectly situated for everywhere we wanted to visit. Supermarket close by for groceries. Welcome pack was limited but a nice gesture. No coffee however was tea sugar and milk.
Well-equipped & very comfortable (except for the sofas, which were not). Beautifully decorated, but downstairs was dark, even on bright days. Palatial bathroom, but struggled bathing without a stand-in shower. Sea view not visible except from garden. Location brilliant, 5 mins from seafront, & very peaceful. Overall, a lovely place, & owner Jane was lovely too.

Thank you for our 5 star review we really appreciate it. Due to the age and nature of the building windows are historically smaller than modern buildings. The description doesn’t include stand in shower and we apologise if this was awkward for you. Roll top baths are pretty but harder to access. We hope to see you again. Jane
Jane and Jon were amazing hosts! I ended up booking Little Turret after my prior VRBO cancelled just before my trip, Jane and Jon allowed me to stay over the Holiday when they normally would have closed. I cannot express how grateful I am to them and their family for providing me a place to stay.
I arrived later than anticipated but was treated with some welcome gifts that were perfect!
From the unique entry-way (almost castle like) to the first glimpse inside Little Turret, the property gives you all the English charm and quirk your heart desires. Little Turret was a sanctuary for me over a 23 day trip and I found myself not wanting to leave the multiple fireplaces or bathtub! The beds are comfortable, amenities are well done, and in general it is just the perfect spot to rest, rejuvenate, and reflect. I spent a lot of time cooking, building fires, and reading. When I finally left the property, it was close car ride to Historic Battle, Hastings, the coast, Rye, Eastbourne and a little further to Brighton. Close access to train stations and other amenities you might need during your stay.
Jane was fantastic at communicating and was readily available whenever I had questions or needed something. If your looking for an amazing place to stay, experience historic England with some real English charm I cannot express more that Little Turret is the place to go! I will return in the future.
Thank you again Jane & Jon for making my English Holiday perfect!

Hi Amber
Thank you for such a lovely kind review. We are so happy you found Little Turret suiting all your needs. Thank you also for leaving the property beautifully clean and tidy. It means alot to us when a guest really appreciates L
A lovely, unusual property, which we thoroughly enjoyed staying at for the week. We only met Jane, the host, as we were leaving, but she was lovely and was available anytime, should we have needed anything. The place was very clean and the beds were huge and very comfortable. Everything we could possibly need was provided. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Thank you for your kind review and for being lovely clean and tidy guests.
Sehr schöne gemütliche stilvolle Wohnung. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt darin sehr genossen. Die Lage der Wohnung war zentral und gut geeignet für Ausflüge in alle Richtungen.
Sehr liebevoll eingerichtetes Haus. Es ist im Vintage Stil eingerichtet und hat viele schöne Details. Die Betten sind bequem, das Haus ist sehr sauber und die Besitzer sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir waren mit den Fahrrädern da und haben tolle Fahrradtouren an der Küste, aber auch im Umland machen können.
Seit Jahren stosse ich bei meiner Recherche nach Ferienhäusern im Internet immer wieder auf dieses besondere Haus mit dem Turm...Nun haben wir es gebucht, mit einer grossen Erwartungshaltung. Und wurden nicht enttäuscht!!! Das wichtigste zuerst: Perfekt sauber bis ins Detail! Und das ist uns wichtig. Ein so außergewöhnliches Haus mit dieser ausgefallenen Einrichtung so sauber zu halten ist nicht einfach ( das weiss ich aus eigener Erfahrung) aber hier ist es gelungen. Danke dafür. Alle Fotos in der Beschreibung sind authentisch. Die liebe zum Detail, die hübsche Terrasse, die Bank in der Abendsonne, es war so wunderbar. Und die Vermieterin so herzlich und sympathisch. Unsere Kinder kamen überraschend für 3 Nächte dazu, das war kein Problem, hat nichts extra gekostet. Nochmal Danke. Die Betten, die Kissen, die Handtücher, alles hochwertig. Danke für eine wunderbare Woche.
Excellent property and felt very welcome. Perfect place to chill as in very quiet surroundings. Would definitely stay her again

Mark and his family were perfect guests. Communication was friendly and they treated our property and surroundings wth respect. Our Little Turret was left meticulously clean and tidy and we really appreciate this. We really hope they visit us again, more than welcome and we recommend Mark and his family to anyone.
The location was a little further out of Hastings than I thought but was easy with a car to get around. The place itself is wonderful and so are the hosts. The houses personal touches are great. We were so tired after a 11 hour flight and two hour drive that having wine , eggs bread and milk was wonderful so we didn't have to run right out again. Would stay here again definitely!!! There are quite a few steps if this is hard for you. It wasn't for us. Thank you for sharing your place with us.

Ive only just noticed after all these years the thumbs down symbol which is obviously an error as these guests were delightful and we would certainly host again. I have tried to delete this without success. Many apologies for the error and thank you guests for the lovely review.
Spent a lovely weekend with my family at this beautiful property. So full of character and beautifully decorated if you like old then this is the place for you. It is well equipped and spotlessly clean with the added bonus of a welcome basket from the owner. (Milk bread butter etc). Good location for Hastings only a five minute drive away. The only disappointment for us was that it is surrounded by modern houses.
Sehr nette Vermieter mit einem schönen, stilvollen Haus.
Sehr liebevoll eingerichtetes Ferienhaus. Ein kulinarisches Willkommenspaket stand zur Begrüßung in der Küche. Die Küche war gut ausgestattet. Alles war so wie beschrieben. Ein Haus zum Wohlfühlen. Für Familien mit älteren Kindern sehr geeignet. Den Sonnenplatz draußen haben wir sehr genossen. Gerne kommen wir wieder. Die Vermieterin Jane ist wunderbar und hat uns mit einem sehr schönen Willkommenspaket begrüßt.

Thank you for your lovely review. We are happy you enjoyed your holiday and it was nice to meet you from time to time. Thank you for leaving our house so tidy and clean and we welcome you anytime you’re staying in the UK.
My sister and I had a wonderful stay in Little Turret. The house is exactly as described. Everything is there and is furnished with many lovely details. The beds are wonderfully comfortable and we slept in it like babies and have a great rest.
We were there by car and could do everything from there.
Jane is a wonderful hostess and we would like to come back.
Thank you very much Jane.

Wir - 3 Erwachsene - waren sehr zufrieden mit der Unterkunft! Es war alles vorhanden , was für den Aufenthalt nötig war. Die Wohnung war sehr sauber und liebevoll hergerichtet! Was wir auch gebraucht haben, war Ruhe zur Erholung! Auch die haben wir dort gefunden!
Die Wohnung war auch ein guter Punkt um viele Orte gut zu erreichen, die wir anschauen wollten!
Wir waren sehr zufrieden und können die Wohnung weiterempfehlen!!!

Life as in times gone by
Attractively decorated. Needed airing for 24 hours as a heavy and unpleasant smell left us with sinus, catarrh and headaches. The hospitality basket was inviting and attractive. The winding turret stairs left this 77 year old with the knowledge that bungalows and flats, though lacking the atmosphere of quirky is more sensible. Thank you for a nice venue to relax in.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to read that you experienced an unpleasant smell and felt that the property needed airing. We are also concerned that the smell maybe caused you discomfort. Of course had we known of the problem when you arrived we could’ve come up and investigated immediately. As you were aware we live on site and when i let you in to retrieve your locked in keys 9 asked if all was ok with you and you said it was all fine. So this rather surprised me to read about unpleasant smells bad enough to cause headaches. We have been letting Little Turret for over 3 years and have always had 4 and 5 star reviews and never a mention of smell which I would
Like to emphasise to future guests.
We hope this won’t put you off visiting Little Turret again, however we understand that the spiral staircase proved tricky. We mention this in our description as one of the unique features.
We thank you for the 4 star rating and hope that your friends from your town book for later in the year.

Perfect cosy cottage retreat - with turret!
Lots of lovely interior design features, modern kitchen, plenty of space. The wood burner made it especially cosy in the evenings. We loved the turret and the spiral staircase. Efficient heating. Big bath for long soaks!

Superb! Beautiful house and lovely host. Home from home.
Superb! We loved our short break near Hastings at Little Turret. Jane was very welcoming and provided a welcome pack of goodies and greeted us when we arrived. A historic gem of a property located in a more modern but quiet residential street as you walk up the spiral steps of Little Turret you step back in time into a beautifully furnished and very tastefully styled renovated house with all the facilities you could ask for including an excellent kitchen, a beautiful dining room in the style of William Morris & a cosy living room with TV/DVD and a cosy log burner in the winter months.2 nice bedrooms, one downstairs but with a separate loo and one upstairs next to the bathroom which features a slipper bath! Fabulous place = home from home!

Fantastic accommodation
A really unique property, beautifully designed and decorated. From the generous welcome hamper to the cosy bed everything is thoughtfully and lovingly provided. The rooms are generously proportioned and skillfully decorated with William Morris designs and tasteful paint colour choices. We cannot thank the owners enough for their attention to detail and comfort. Highly and hugely recommended if you are looking for a place to stay in 1066 country.
