Cliffe Cottage

A very beautiful clean property with lovely features. A peaceful environment but easy access to excellent restaurants and cliff / river walks . We felt very at home , and the flowers were a super touch.

Just the modulation of the shower temperature, as the taps are low and impossible to access from outside the bath.

Fresh flowers in every room , fresh smelling linen , fluffy towels , a welcome bottle of Prosecco , tea, coffee , biscuits . Very clean

Everything was lovely. A great place to stay, and so convenient and I would like to thank the hosts!

Everything was fine!

Stylish bijou terrace house within a few minutes of the shops and pubs and restaurants of historic Lewes. The house is attractively decorated and clearly a lot of thought and effort and money has gone into the fit-out. Dog-friendly, with a useful back yard. Some nice welcoming touches on arrival: fresh cut flowers, cookies, plus tea, coffee, milk etc, as well as simple and clear visitor instructions.

Although the house is stylish and generally looks lovely, it isn't comfortable, which is a problem, particularly if the weather is poor and you can't be out and about all the time. The small lounge has one uncomfortable armchair plus a very small, shallow sofa, so no possibility of lounging about and relaxing. The kitchen-diner, although functional, is poorly designed and has terrible lighting, so not somewhere you'd want to linger. Upstairs, again, looks great, with period-style bedroom furniture, but the mattresses are unforgiving. The bathroom is also period-style and very handsome but the shower is over the bath and isn't thermostatically controlled so you spend a lot of time fiddling with the bath taps. Plus the shower is fixed so there's no way of cleaning the bath without getting a jug from the kitchen. There's also nowhere to put any toiletries in the bathroom.
