The Hideout

88 Customer Reviews

• "This is beautiful accommodation, great location, superbly maintained with lots of thoughtful touches."

  Everything was provided from bathroom products and helpful suggestions for local activities, to beach towels and torches for nighttime exploring. Warm, stylish and comfortable inside, perhaps a little smaller than we expected, but a secure and relaxing outdoor area. We hope to come back.

• "The expression "stones throw from the beach" must have been written with this property in mind."

  It's beachfront location is wonderful, within a couple of miles of every conceivable amenity and attraction. Quiet and underdeveloped, where the susurration of the waves and peaceful locale can restore the soul. Thoughtful design touches abound and an eclectic collection of knick knacks and wall art add to the overall beach hut theme. The photobook on arrival is a very novel and uber stylish way of communicating all the information you are likely to need - certainly streets above the usual dog eared A4 folder with a couple of local leaflets of things to do (which are legion). Not enjoyed a holiday this much in years and the weather could not spoil it. Thank you to my host for being so considerate and helpful and allowing us to stay in such a terrific property. Recommend to everyone. 6 stars.

• "Another wonderful week at The Hideout."

  As before, the accommodation was top notch, super comfy bed, lovely private garden and about 100 steps to the beach! One tiny problem with a light bulb was fixed the same day as mentioned to Carol. Weather was great, locals all very friendly and the beaches were virtually empty! I cannot recommend this delightful holiday accommodation and area so I will absolutely return again and again (until I can persuade my other half to move to Selsey Bill!!). Thank you thank you.

  Couldn’t fault the Hideout. It had everything you need plus lots of additional extras which were a lovely touch. The property owner couldn’t do enough to help if we needed anything. Would highly recommend the Hideout!

• "We loved our stay!"

  A beautiful Floridian beach vibe decor with the waves practically on the doorstep. The courtyard garden is secure and perfect for your fur babies and a sun trap for the adults. The green opposite makes the perfect playground, beautiful walks on the beach front, especially at low tide. The owners were so friendly and welcoming and the wine in the fridge on arrival was awesome! They also told us some local places to visit which were lovely. Thank you for making our stay a great experience.

• "We had a fantastic week at the Hideout thank you."

  The property was exactly as described but also had many extras with lots of thought clearly put in to making it feel like home for home. Carol and Steve were fantastic hosts who very kindly let us have a late check out on our final day which was lovely as we did not want the holiday to end. We would highly recommend the Hideout for its facilities and home comforts, its proximity to the beach and the warmth of the welcome!

  A perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of life. A wonderful location right next to the village green and the beach. The Hideout was well equipped and comfortable with an enclosed outdoor area perfect for relaxing in the sunshine, listening to the waves and smelling the sea air. Inside the accommodation had everything we needed and Carol, the owner is a very welcoming and helpful host.

• "What an absolute gem!"

  I was in need of a recharge by the coast and found this place which looked perfect for my dog and I. To be so close to the sea was just amazing. At low tide in the morning and evening I could take just a few steps from The Hideout and be out walking my dog along a glorious sandy beach with hardly anyone but a few other locals walking their dogs in sight. I enjoyed a beautiful sunset with the beach to myself on the Saturday night. Loved listening to the waves when I relaxed in the garden to give my dog a rest from all the walking. It's a little suntrap! The accommodation has everything you could need, is really comfortable, and Carol the host was so helpful whenever I had a question. The perfect place to relax, enjoy coastal walks and with really friendly locals. Highly recommend and I will be returning!

• "This was our first time staying here, and if you're looking for a 'Hideout', I can't rate this place highly enough."

  Despite the owners being away, they messaged to see if we had everything we needed. It was my husbands 50th while we were there, and I requested a couple of balloons to be in the room when we got there. What we infact got, was balloons, a birthday cake, box of chocs and 2 bottles of wine. The owners went above and beyond. Locals are really friendly and some even stopped for a chat when I walked our dog. It really is a stunning area and 'The Hideout' is exactly that, a hideout away from everyone and everything. We will definitely be going back at some point in the future.

  The property is absolutely delightful, beautifully presented, clean and every detail thought of. The hosts are lovely people and couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. Fantastic location by the sea and green with walks in either direction along the coast. We also visited East and West Wittering, Chichester Marina, Dell Quay and Pagham Harbour for some lovely walks and pubs with great food!

  Beautiful decor, clean and well equipped with everything we needed. The location is right next to the beach and only a 20 minute walk from the High Street with a number of bars, restaurants and shops. Complimentary milk, tea, coffee, biscuits and a bottle of wine were all much appreciated. Lots of guides and ideas for days out (and activities for days in if the weather is not so good). There's a lovely garden area which would be fantastic on a warm evening - unfortunately not warm enough for us to enjoy it! The only thing which was a little disappointing was that the shower was not very powerful, but otherwise we felt it was perfect.

  The Hideout was a perfect spot for the West beach, Sandy at low tide and dog friendly, and also for walks along to the Lifeboat etc, along to East beach where at the far end there are some interesting beach houses. There are plenty of flat walks to do and only a few miles to Chichester marina and the Witterings. It is a perfect place for a single or couple to have a short break, to feel cosy and safe, with a small sheltered courtyard with comfortable seating and is safely enclosed. Plenty of info provided in local food, walks, places. We will be very likely to return.

  We managed to cook some tasty meals, using the one pan method on the hob, not having an oven meant less washing up. Everyone we met while out walking was sociable, including the dogs. The Hideout is ideally situated for dog owners with a lovely green opposite and fantastic beach walks in both directions and walks on the sand when the tide is out. Our hosts, Carol and Steve, made sure we had everything we needed. It would have been a little easier if parking was available on site for unloading grocery shopping and general convenience but there was ample parking out by the green.

  Well maintained and everything we needed was to hand. With a quirky seaside theme it really hits the spot setting the atmosphere for that break by the sea. The courtyard garden was a most restful place to sit with a brew or a beer and just listen to the sea only yards away. Our hosts had left us with detailed information of interesting things to do and places to visit. With the beach a stones throw away a morning swim or an anytime swim in the sea was most invigorating. We found the local's the most friendly bunch we have come across in a while, happy to share and inform on the beautiful peninsula. We would recommend this place for restful and relaxing stay where you can do as much or as little as you like.

  I spent a magical week exploring the coastline directly outside the property and further afield - Bracklesham Bay/the Witterings are only a short drive away. I went further afield to Bognor and Worthing as well as into Chichester. It was quite heavenly being able to hear the waves crashing from inside The Hideout and I spent many hours photographing the enormous and quite magnificent skies! I met some very friendly locals who were always keen to stand and wax lyrical about living in Selsey. It was so lovely to be able to take one of the beach chairs, left for ones use by the property owners, with a blanket and a book and sit on the beach until it was too dark to see and not have to make the effort to make a long drive home just a 30 second walk back to the property! Carole was friendly and kept in touch by text as we kept missing each other in person until the last day! A lovely bottle of rosé and some milk and water was left in the fridge which was a nice touch. Top quality linens and towels with extra blankets and enormous beach towels available as well. One minor point I hadn't quite cottoned on to is that there is no oven, but good quality hob and microwave to use if you need to cook. All in all, I'd definitely go back for another week of beach heaven.

  The hideout was lovely, we had everything we needed and more. The extra touches were unexpected but fab. The only criticism we have is when the weather is unsettled and you have a smoker there's nowhere to stand under outside the property. The other thing that could be a good idea is a stable door, so you can keep the door open on a hot night but keep your dog inside?? But on the whole we had a super stay.

• "The Hideout was perfect, exactly as described in the write up."

  It was immaculate and fully equipped with everything we needed. The beach was right outside, (perfect for an early morning swim) and the waves could be heard from the garden which was very private and so relaxing. Carol and Steve were so welcoming and such happy people, which is understandable living in such an idyllic place. I walked early every morning with my dog and often saw the sun rise, it is a very dog friendly place and walks did take a long time as everyone wanted to stop and talk. We had meals at the Lighthouse Inn and would recommend it, friendly staff, good food and a lovely garden. Another must is Paddy's Plaice, the fish and chips were delicious and recommended by all the locals. The beach near the Hideout is pebbles but there is also a lovely sandy beach in West Wittering (that allows dogs) that is a short drive away. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to relax and 'get away from it all.' A big thank you to Carol and Steve it was a brilliant holiday. Julie and Martin...and Bert.

  The WiFi was not brilliant which for some people may not be a problem. Overall I believe it was expensive for what was actually offered but I do realise that this is my opinion and it may be different for others.

  We were very upset and sorry to hear that you were disappointed. We do state that the space is compact. We'd hoped that the photos would show the scale of the space, when seen against a standard kitchen unit or chair. Regarding your issue with the internet, I can only presume that you logged onto another network, as we have a fibre optic broadband connection with two available networks for the property. It's a shame that you didn't mention this when you were here, as we could have pointed you in the right direction. We strive to be available 24/7 to deal with anything that is needed, no matter how trivial. Again I'm sorry that you didn't experience the Hideout as we had hoped and as others have experienced.

Carol and Steve were lovely hosts and we enjoyed our bottle of wine on arrival. We appreciated that there was a little jar of dog treats for the pups! Really thoughtful. A few thing we would have liked to have when staying was a couple condiments e.g salt, pepper, oil and maybe some sauces, however we weren’t far from the shop so we managed to get it. Thank you again. We hope to be back for a longer stay xx

• "The Hideout has it all - stunning location with the beach on the doorstep, beautifully furnished and with it's own lovely, secure garden."

  The owners were great to deal with and had thought of everything we needed - milk and a lovely chilled bottle of wine on arrival. Towels, sheets and extra blankets and lovely extras like thermos flasks for a coffee as you walk along the beach. We'd highly recommend a short drive to The Gribble Inn in Oving, a dog friendly pub that does the most fantastic food and its own micro-brewery. We'll definitely be back!

• "Loved being able to go out and about without disturbing the owners."

  Everything I needed was supplied and if I needed Carol she was available. Lovely touches of wine in the fridge, a small Christmas tree on the table with Christmas crackers was appreciated. The Hideout was perfect for what I needed to recharge and be away from the fast lane of London. I will love to rebook again next year.

• "Lovely stay, very peaceful."

  Both Steve and Carol were very welcoming and offered to take a few things out of the accommodation so our spaniels could have more room. A lovely touch to find a pint of milk and a bottle of wine in the fridge. The accommodation was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. We were pleased that we decided to bring our laptop so we could watch TV and chill out. I'm sure that we had stayed in the summer we would have made more use of the enclosed courtyards with our four legged boys. Location was brilliant, a short walk to the beach and a pleasant walk to the High Street. West Wittering beautiful sandy beach only 4 miles away.

• "We loved the Hideout."

  It was immaculately presented and had the addition of its own private enclosed garden. Steve and Carol were lovely hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. We shall definitely be going back. If you like seafood like we both do, you are in for a real treat. The fresh fish you could buy was amazing. Definitely worth a visit.

• "The Hideout is a very special place."

  We spent a relaxing week there and have come back truly refreshed. The location is stunning with the beach seconds away, perfect for walks, swims and incredible sunsets. It is a dark skies area, so quite magical in the evening. The Hideout is small but beautifully decorated , with a homely feel and is equipped with most things you will need for a holiday. The bed is very comfortable and the en suite has an excellent shower. The private courtyard garden is a bonus. Selsey itself is a well kept secret. There is a full range of shops and an excellent Coop. It’s a really friendly and relaxed town. Over all it is a perfect place to get away from it all. Carol and Steve were great hosts. We certainly plan to visit again. Tim + Anni

• "Great location!"

  I would say this property is ideal for couples who enjoy walking ( we do....but this time had our elderly dog with us which slowed us down this time! ) or if you are just looking for total relaxation and an evening stroll to a local pub. A really good base to explore the coastal areas around & very close to Arundel and Chichester. The Hideout is decorated beautifully and maintained very well. Highly recommended.

• "Everything was amazing, we greatly enjoyed our stay here."

  The location was perfect - literally a 10 second walk to the beach! The cabin itself was luxurious, it had everything we needed inside - every little detail was thought of. The only small downside for us was the wifi was a little unstable but we only needed that in the evenings for watching Netflix on our laptop whilst it was too windy and cold to be outside. So overall, it didn't impact the stay at all. Carol was so friendly and we felt she was there if we needed her for any questions or recommendations in the area. It was a much needed break for us and we will definitely be back :)

• "It was decorated beautifully and simply."

  It was really clean which was important to us and very peaceful. I lost my partner a few weeks ago and wanted somewhere for me and my granddaughter to get away for a little bit of headspace for a few days. This was perfect, the beach is 10 seconds away as described, lovely enclosed pebble garden area which was perfect for my dog. Tea and coffee facilities were also available. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting to just get away. It was also close to a lot of other amenities if you want to get out during the day. Fabulous.
