A great place to relax and unwind in beautiful surroundings. The cottage is well equipped with everything you need and is spotlessly clean. There was a generous welcome basket which was gratefully received. The property is well located for many beach and countryside parks & walks, The local pub is within walking distance and serves good food.

Had a lovely stay at Castlemans Stables West. The property is exceptional clean, bright and well decorated and furnished. There was lovely views from the sitting area to enjoy. Due to the time of year and weather condition we could not utilise the outdoor facilities which would have only enhanced our stay. There was a good welcome pack and lots of things for the dogs, biscuits, bowls towls and a bed. The dogs loved their stay and found the enclosed space very spacious and allowed the dogs plenty of freedom.

A delightfully peaceful location, set up with comfort & convenience in mind. We were within an hour of the all places we'd planned to visit. Our only slight problem was, as we drive an electric vehicle, we needed to find chargers. There were only 2 places within the area. We successfully used Bannatyne's Hastings the first time & went to the other the (a local cafe & small supermarket) the second time but that didn't work so we had to hack down to Hastings, to Bannatyne's again. This, of course, is not the fault of the holiday property's owners.
