Stepping into the property, you immediately notice the high ceilings, large windows and fascinating suspended walkway connecting the two first-floor bedrooms; an unusual and fascinating feature that gives a contemporary and chic feel.

The ground floor is lined by underfloor heating, keeping your toes warm as you step over into the open-plan living space where a large woodburning stove sits prominently in the sitting area, providing extra warmth on those chilly winter nights.

The expansive open-plan space is bright and airy with the light from the wide windows creating a beautiful flow through the ground floor of the house, with the well-equipped kitchen being close to the dining area, allowing all hands on deck when it comes to cooking up a tasty meal to enjoy whilst reminiscing on the day's adventures had.

You will also be able to enjoy the superb view on offer of Hambury Tout, the vast chalk hill which overlooks the coast.

We’ve stayed here several times and keep coming back.

It’s a lovely place in a beautiful location. It’s really well kitted out and a lovely space to relax in.

The cottage was in a perfect location to relax in the shade of the lovely garden.

To walk over the nearby hills and appreciate the geological significance and beauty of the Cove, where it was even possible to swim.

This is a lovely property with a well kitted out kitchen and comfortable furniture.

The conversion of the chapel is beautifully done and all of the furniture is of very good quality. The location is excellent and it’s a nice to stay in as it is to explore the local area which has a lot to offer with something for every interest. We’ll certainly be booking again. Some of the bedding was a little tired - I’ll bring a pillow or two next time. But this didn’t stop of from having a lovely stay!
