Guests appreciate the sociable space, comfortable beds, and local amenities within walking distance. While some noted areas for improvement, the overall experience is highly regarded.
Most reviews mention the property being clean and well-maintained, though a few guests noted specific areas needing better cleaning or maintenance, such as windows and the downstairs bedroom. The majority, however, were satisfied with the cleanliness.
The location is highly praised for its stunning sea views and proximity to local shops, cafes, and pubs. Its quiet beachside setting is considered a major plus, contributing to a peaceful and enjoyable stay.

A 2-mile narrow gauge seaside light railway, a funfair, the Hayling wwii Heritage Trail, seaside walks, pubs, restaurants, and shops. Along with a theatre, Alpacas, and a donkey sanctuary. There are 3 marinas, Hayling Island sailing club and Hayling Island yacht club. Hayling boasts one of the top one hundred links golf courses in England (Hayling Golf Club), as well as a family friendly ‘Beachlands’ pitch and putt par 3 course and ‘Tournerbury golf centre’ an intermediate course.
Further afield, get the ferry across to Portsmouth with waterside dining, designer outlets, HMS Victory and the Mary Rose Museum, pop over to the Isle of Wight or visit Goodwood for the Festival of Speed or the Goodwood revival.

Fabulous location, even on a windy weekend in October, with the most amazing view from the lounge. A very clean and comfortable home from home.Dreamcatcher was exactly as the photographs showed online. We had a lovely walk along the beach and found The Mad Hatter tea shop where we received a very warm welcome … can highly recommend a visit.

Whilst this place is in an absolutely stunning location the house itself is particularly dated. The entire downstairs felt like it had been forgotten and felt like a totally different house. The space in the front room could have been so much better utilised as that sofa is far too big and uncomfortable.Windows were filthy so couldn’t see much outside, I know it’s on the seafront but every other house in that area had clean windows so not a beach side issue.Kitchen fully equipped with everything you could need. Not entirely sure why that many mirrors are needed everywhere, although they were all completely spotless and clean. The only room that felt like it wasn’t very clean was the downstairs bedroom, again it felt like it had been forgotten when decorating, very plain, cold and uninviting.

Brilliant location and a very sociable space for a family celebration. Very clean and generally well equipped. Plenty of handsoap but would have appreciated some bath products, as in the pictures, to enjoy in the lovely slipper bath
