About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Lovely beachfront Apartment with private courtyard

The apartment is situated directly on the beautiful St Leonards seafront within the basement of a historic Grade II listed house.
The house was built by James Burton, the original architect of St Leonards-on-Sea in the year 1830.
The holiday let is accessed through its own front door, down a flight of steps from the street; the flat is completely self-contained and has been newly refurbished throughout.
We want you to know that we’re doing our part to help our guests stay safe by cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched surfaces.

The front door opens into the lounge, with a wood burning stove available for guests to use during the colder months.
A large and comfortable sofa bed pulls out to accommodate up to two extra people.
The living room curtains have blackout so the sofa surfers can sleep soundly.
We have a high chair available on request and there is a TV with Chromecast

The bedroom is a romantic and calm retreat and very quiet.
The bed is king sized and made from orthopaedic memory foam, the bedding is pure cotton.
Blackout lined curtains aid restful sleep and underfloor heating keeps the room cosy in colder months.

A selection of teas and fresh coffee, milk and our home made granola can be found in the small but fully equipped kitchen.

Step outside the kitchen back door and into the private courtyard, perfect for an al-fresco breakfast or an evening in.
We can supply a barbeque to use in the courtyard on request.

Dogs are very welcome at the apartment, we have a dog ourselves; a 2 year old Jack Russell called Archie.
They are allowed to go leash-free on the beach at this end of the seafront, and along the coastal path all the way to Bexhill.
This walk is particularly rewarding at low tide.
If you plan to bring pets please send us a message when you book with the doggy details of your stay.

Smoking is allowed outside in the courtyard,
please let us know if you would like to smoke in the courtyard and we will leave an ashtray out for you.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch with any queries, we are always happy to answer any questions you may have.

Other things to note

We are 5 minutes walk from West St Leonards station, keys are in a safe on the premises.
The apartment is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a sofa bed, and a fenced private yard.

Phenomenal Find

What a quaint little place this was! We loved our time in Thorpe Bay and this little apartment was just perfect. One note is that I believe there had been an animal sitting on the sofa because I had a horrible allergic reaction the night we were there after laying on it. I am more sensitive than most and soft surfaces do retain traces of animal hair/dander longer. A few hours later after I recovered I just stuck to sitting in the comfy green leather chair and I was fine. Lovely place full of history and the wood-burning stove was so welcoming after a chilly evening walk. Thanks for a great day!

Fantastic Apartment

Great Apartment, 200 years old (wow) really clean and cosy. Was able to take my dog which was great. Opposite beach, great dog walking area. Owners were so helpful, left milk, cookies and turned on heating for us as it was so wet when we arrived. Used log burner, some logs supplied. Walked along the road for breakfast at Bounjour cafe which also welcomed dogs. On a practical note, not suitable for anyone with mobility issues as very steep stairs outside to front door and same inside. I would definitely recommend this property.

Amazing stay

My partner and I had a lovely time visiting St. Leonard's in this condo. Checking in and out was a breeze. The condo had literally everything we needed and we couldn't have asked for a better stay. The owners have thought of everything and you are sure to have a great time. The marina fountain pub down the road was an easy walk with great food, fizzy beer, chill music, and dog friendly. We can't wait to visit again. Thank you so much for hosting us and our pup.

We had a lovely long weekend. Very comfortable stay - perfect for a dog family. Wonderful to be so close to the beach and easy access to dog friendly cafes and pubs. Loved the bedroom underfloor heating and the wood burning stove. Would suggest you upgrade the key safe - very stiff.

Fabulous Stay

We had a lovely stay with our dog Mabel. The flat is beautifully renovated and spotlessly clean. We loved the wood burner and under floor heating in the bedroom when it turned chilly during our stay. The thoughtful touches like leaving a towel for Mabel and milk in the fridge were really nice. Really excellent location and easy access to everything - we were even able to get a park directly outside. Also excellent communication from the hosts. Thoroughly recommended and we would stay again.

What a little gem!

Gorgeous little flat! Lovely and cozy and spotless! Even the windows had been left open for our arrival as it was so hot. There was a bottle of water and pint of milk in the fridge. Also, use of fresh fluffy towels, hand wash, lovely shower gel, homemade granola and lots of other bits. So thoughtful. Would be just as lovely snuggled in front of the fire in the winter. 5 stars from us :-)

Felt unsafe, 3 broken windows, limescale flaking off walls, owner has door into apt

Entry via a 20ft drop cellar like twisty staircase, patio1 is actually the doorway from the street with grime, dirt, rubbish falling each day, there are 3 broken window panels 2 back door 1 bathroom, bathroom has owners window looking directly in yet you have no blinds, the owners door comes into your flat, patio2 has waste pouring from 3 storey uncovered and smells vile, every day you need sweep lots of limescale flaking into bedroom,there is no cupboard but a curtain your clothes so covered in limescale, and Owner's daily pack telling you to sweep the limescale on floor every day. I couldnt unpack and left early. The owners are lovely but this is not ready for b&b, personally as a former housing officer i would condem any public lets until the owners bring this property to basic safe standards. The flaking walls all day is dangerous to children and pets who put paws/hands into their mouths. And sorry, but I think the house smells of damp limescale found underground. Sorry owners you are nice people but this is not lettable property. I have photos of it all.
