Kid-friendly holiday rentals in East Sussex

Great place to stay. Close to the beach and promenade. Plenty of variety in the many local restaurants and cafes nearby. Hastings pier and town is a short walk away.

We stayed here 4 nights. Altho the temperatures outside we quite high it remained really nice and cool inside, which we liked a lot. The garden is really cozy and provides both sun and shadow which makes it a pleasant place to relax. Everything was as described and the flowers and milk provided were welcoming extras. The only criticism we have is that the countertop felt a bit sticky and that the cupboards are quite cluttered and we had to search sometimes to find what we needed. Overal we would definitely recommend staying here.

We had a great stay! Walking distance to the harbor with great restaurants! Place had plenty of room for the 3 of us traveling.

Just experienced the most perfect 3 day stay, in an absolutely ideal location in Rye. A spotlessly clean, stunning character filled property with low beams, wonky walls and sloping floors, which all add to it's wonderful charm. A very responsive, helpful and kind host, who really wants you to enjoy your time there. No questions too hard and always a very warm prompt response from Becky. We would 100% recommend this property and host, if your looking to book the perfect getaway in Rye. Thank you so much Becky, for all your quick responses and for allowing us to stay in your beautiful property. Kind regards, Carol.

We head down to the Sussex coast for a family weekend. It was built around a gift of a visit to Tillingham winery. Castle Fort matched our expectations perfectly…. Sea views and sounds, huge open planning living area, very appointed…. A home from home by the sea It was practically perfect. We had one small hiccup. I think we were the first guests for quite a while and the water system pressure was low, which challenged us on the first night but Georgina stepped up and we solved the problem This is a perfect spot if you want to explore the delights of Rye, what a find Very comfortable with everything you could ever want in a holiday let Definitely will return

Had a fabulous stay here Beautiful setting Melissa was very helpful Restful and comfortable

A very comfortable, homely cottage set in a beautiful, peaceful location. Peter and Marilyn were friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed walking from the cottage without having to use the car, but there was easy access by road to many attractions. During our short stay we visited Rye, Rye Harbour, Bateman's House and Garden and Eastbourne. We highly recommend this cottage.

What a wonderful place……everything as described….David & Donna provided a great welcome pack. The house had everything needed for a relaxing break. Beach was quiet and clean. Games room was a hit for the competitive people in our group! View from the sitting room was stunning ……Plenty of parking and was very easy to find.

Had an amazing stay in St Leonards and the flat was lovely, with views of the ocean and only a 5 minute walk to nearby stores and restaurants. Highly recommend!!

We enjoyed our stay in the apartment. Great view and only a short walk across the road to the beach. There are a lot of restaurants close by as well and a lot of other things to explore in the area.

Hi Tom, It was a pleasure to stay at your place over the last few days. Everything was as described and many thanks for the extensive information on food recommendations and the surrounding area. It was so wonderful waking up to the fantastic views across the sea. The accommodation was just as described and we had a lovely time.

Location was perfect and the airbnb was exactly how Angela described it. Lots of places to visit and smack bang in the middle of all the activity. Really enjoyed our stay.

Thank you for a lovely stay Zed. Your flat is beautiful and so perfectly situated. Such an easy walk to the beach, to wonderful shops and restaurants, and lots of options for great coffee. Thank you too for being such a helpful and communicative host. I would highly recommend.

The apartment is stylish, comfortable and very clean. We loved the view and the space was great, high ceilings and period features. Having been to St Leonards before we knew that our favourite restaurants were walkable too. Moyra was a great host and very helpful and considerate about check in time, much appreciated.

Great and cozy place to stay close to stunning nature. Deirdre was extremely nice and helpful. We are looking forward to come back.

We had a fabulous w/e in this wonderful 1st floor flat - the rooms are so spacious with views straight out to sea from the living area, and we loved all the decor, linen, and finishing touches, we felt very much at home. Very easy to walk to St Leonard’s along the prom with loads of food and drink options, plus sauna on the pier at Hastings was great fun! Thank you Caroline for a great stay 😊

Simon was really helpful and available at all times for any queries. He gave great recommendations for local restaurants etc and the place is central with free parking opposite.

Very happy with our stay , a lovely clean flat ,great location ,couldn't ask for more , responsive owners which always makes life easier.

We had such a lovely stay at Will’s Flat this weekend! The flat was clean, cosy and had all the amenities we needed. The flat was a short walk into the centre and a two minute walk to the sea. Will was the perfect host, very responsive and his instructions were very clear and helpful. Thanks for such a lovely stay.

We have just arrived home after a wonderful short break at Seascape, celebrating my husband’s 70th birthday. Seascape is a beautiful apartment. Spotlessly clean and it felt like it had been newly decorated and furnished. It’s great to have two levels and two bathrooms. Felt very spacious and incredibly peaceful with the most glorious view. We spotted dolphins out in the bay from the balcony. Highly recommended. By far the best Airbnb we’ve stayed in. We also enjoyed the cafes and restaurants in St Leonard’s and the walk to Bexhill. Really didn’t want to return to 30 degrees heat in London. Thank you!

This was our fourth stay here at David's Annexe which really speaks for itself. It's the gift that keeps giving each time we return. The annexe was spotlessly clean as always ,with all aspects of our stay catered for.We wanted for nothing in the chalet as everything had been thought out carefully. Even dog blankets and doggy treats for those who bring a dog,although we didnt. The weather was beautiful every day,which was a bonus. The bed was so comfortable,and the kitchen area was superb. The milk in the fridge which was waiting for us on arrival,along with the yummy biscuits were really appreciated after a long journey. David and Lisa our hosts as always were more than happy to help out with any request,always with a genuine smile that made such a difference. We want to mention Reggie their lovely dog,who always made us welcome when we sat out on David's private beach on the seats he so kindly made available to us for free use. So in a word it was Utopia. Thank you.Kathy and Clive.

Patrick's flat has a great location, close to the train station, the Old Town and Morrisons supermarket. It is also a three-minute walk from West Hill, which offers the most beautiful views of the Old Town and the see. The flat is well-maintained, clean and bright. The living room has a nice view, and the kitchen has a lovely small garden with a terrace. Patrick was always available and responded to my messages. We highly recommend this place!

Great place to stay. Clean and had everything you would need. Brilliant range of provisions and very helpful booklet with everything you need to know regarding property and surroundings. Christianne efficient communicator.

The flat is well designed making great use of the space and beautifully decorated and well provided for. We appreciated touches like having a small stock of cooking supplements (oil, salt and some odd items). We will definitely have it high on the list for revisit.
