"Absolutely lovely stay."
A very comfortable, spotlessly clean, spacious and beautifully equipped apartment in a super location close to the beach, public transport links and all local facilities. Glad to be able to adjust heating and access hot water as needed. Excellent information available about the area and places of interest. Excellent and thoughtful communication from the property owner throughout and the hamper was very much appreciated. The only ‘negative’ is that the property doesn’t accept dogs which, as a dog owner, means I can’t visit with them!
-
"Awesome holiday accommodation."
Spotlessly clean and every comfort plus lots of extras such as Lovely Welcome Basket, Milk in Fridge, Toiletries and beautifully wrapped towels. Great Parking too! This property is a real find!
-
"Lovely, comfortable little apartment."
Extremely clean and well equipped. Very conveniently situated, easy enough for car parking as well as the train station.
-
"We loved 'Lower Deck', it was like a home from home."
Everything we needed was there, location was great for the prom/beach and for the town. Communication with Mia and with Sykes has been excellent. Would happily return.
-
"This was a great apartment in a great location near the beach."
Apartment was very clean and had everythng you needed.
-
"Lower Deck benefits from a perfect location."
It is minutes from the seafront, close to the town with many cafes and restaurants and a short walk from the station. I have stayed three times at Lower Deck. It is always welcoming, clean, tidy and well equipped with a generous welcome hamper and little extras of things you might have forgotten. I felt comfortable and mostly safe holidaying on my own.
-
"Excellent property spotlessly clean, had all facilities."
Nice to be greeted with a welcome pack. Five minutes to beach, restaurants and shops. Have no hesitation in recommending this holiday home and hope to go back again very soon.
-
"Lower deck is a great place to stay for a short break in Bexhill."
Ideally located, well appointed and spotlessly clean. The owners have thought of everything for a pleasant stay. Would be happy to book again should we return to the town. Thank you Mia and Ashley.
-
"We thoroughly enjoyed our third visit to this lovely flat."
As always it was spotlessly clean and generous welcome gifts were waiting for us, thank you Mia and Ashley. We had great walks along the seafront in Bexhill, Eastbourne and Hastings, the latter two easily reached by train. We also enjoyed an excellent meal at the Italian Trattoria restaurant around the corner. Looking forward to our next visit which is already booked for next year!
-
"Really enjoyed our stay - it was lovely and clean and very well-equipped."
The proximity of the apartment to the sea was excellent.
-
"This was our 3rd time here."
Its just perfect for a peaceful break. Lovely walks along the coast in either direction, shops on the doorstep. Lower Deck is warm and cosy, very comfortable and immaculately presented. A welcome pack of fresh flowers and a basket full of goodies awaits you. Can't wait to book another week soon.
-
"This cute little cottage is delightful."
It is so well thought of and it did feel like a second home. We will definitely book this cottage again and it will be a nice feeling to know what we are coming into. Thank you again our host making this so enjoyable.
-
"We are frequent visitors to Lower Deck and we are never disappointed."
In fact it feels more like we are coming home. Attention to detail is amazing. Wonderful hosts Mia and Ashley.
-
"Charming seaside themed flat in a superb location."
Very compact. I believe a single sized wardrobe would benefit us who have dresses, blouses, shirts, trousers. The parking permits were a boon to people such as us being slightly disabled, no more driving around looking for parking spaces. Mia was extremely helpful and knowledgeable.
-
"Can’t fault this property at all."
It was perfect. The owner has thought of everything. It was comfy, exceptionally spotless. Everything you need and more. Gift basket was a lovely suprise. Location is great. Train within walking distance. Lots of nice eating places, lovely beach walks. Would definitely return if going to that area
-
"Mia and Ashley are great hosts."
The accommodation is very well presented, and the finishing touches are very thoughtful. We thoroughly enjoyed our 3rd stay, and will definitely return.
-
"It was absolutely wonderful."
Will definitely book again. The owners are very nice and very kind. Highly recommend.
-
"The property was maintained to a high standard and there was a lot of attention to detail around the theme in a very tasteful and accomplished way."
The bed and sofa were extremely comfortable and the standard of cleanliness was excellent. There was a lovely welcome pack and beautiful flowers to greet us. All amenities are within walking distance.
-
"Pleasant stay."
Would recommend this accomodation.
-
"Bexhill on sea is a quiet seaside town with a lovely atmosphere."
Lower Deck is the perfect place to stay. It is very near the sea, is extremely well maintained and equipped. It is easy to travel to other places or just enjoy walking along the promenade. I hope to return.
-
"Lower Deck is a very nice and well maintained small flat, which makes a great base for Bexhill and the surrounding area."
Just a short walk to the end of the road and you are on the promenade or round the corner to restaurants and shops. As a basement flat it was also lovely and cool, given the temperatures during the week. Very happy and hope to stay again with Mia in the future.
-
"This is a brilliant place to stay best compliment I could give is that my wife ..."
This is a brilliant place to stay best compliment I could give is that my wife and I said we would quite happily live in the flat plenty of space all fully equipped with everything you need, town only a minutes walk away seafront just as close and if you want to get on a train somewhere only a 10 minute walk, would definitely stay here again
-
"Really nice property."
Welcome hamper was excellent and sorting parking permits before we arrived was a nice touch. Parking was easy and the only thing I would mention is the lack of clothes hanging space.
-
"This holiday apartment is absolute perfection!"
Could not fault a single thing. Very generous welcome hamper that was a lovely surprise. Fantastic location and easy access to local transport for days out. Stayed in many properties over the years but this one exceeded our expectations it was simply perfect.
-
"This was our second time at Lower deck and we are just about to book again."
It`s a fabulous place to stay in the lovely seaside town of Bexhill. Spotlessly fresh and clean. The shops are almost on the doorstep, the beach is a few steps away across the road with lovely walks east or west. The beach is good for swimming and there`s even showers along the prom to rinse off afterwards. There is a very nice welcome pack on arrival from Mia and Ashley the owners. Thank you. Deb and Bob
-
"We had an extended stay as our new home purchase was delayed."
We were extremely comfortable for almost 6 weeks! Lower Deck is beautifully presented and the extra touches provided by the hosts are extremely thoughtful. 10 out of 10
-
"We had a lovely stay."
There was excellent attention to detail with fabulously well equipped kitchen and extremely generous welcome basket. Hosts clearly really want guests to have a first rate experience ...a nd we did! Accommodation was warm and welcoming and h as a dedicated ventilation system so no issues with being a garden flat. We stayed for New Year and Lower Deck was really well positioned for all the local amenities including restaurants, pubs, cafes and shops. We walked on the prom every day in between showers of rain and even saw some sunshine so it was different every day. All round an excellent break.
-
"Excellent apartment, very well equipped."
The Christmas tree and welcome basket of goodies a very nice gesture. Spotlessly clean, piping hot water, wonderful fluffy, high quality towels, comfy bed and quiet at night. Great location with convenient parking in the nearby car park. The attention to every detail was very much appreciated. A very enjoyable stay.
-
"We had a second very enjoyable stay at Lower Deck."
Mia goes to a lot of trouble to ensure it is welcoming, clean, cosy and has everything you could possibly need for a special holiday. We appreciated the welcome basket and the Christmas decorations. We had lovely long walks along the promenade, shopped locally and had an excellent meal at the Trattoria Italian restaurant round the corner. We also enjoyed the Steve Harley show and dinner at the De La Warr Pavilion. And we shopped and walked In Eastbourne twice, the second time by train which was easy and quick. We hope to return next year. Thank you Mia and Ashley
-
"I had a really good time in the apartment."
It was just as described, warm and comfortable. The equipment, furnishings and little extras are perfect and added to a welcoming holiday experience. Thank you.
-
"First-class accommodation in a excellent position in Bexhill."
Well equipped and everything you need for a lovely holiday.
-
"Our second stay at this delightful property with easy access to all that Bexhill on Sea has to offer including De La Warr Pavilion, beach, cafes, restaurants and many interesting independent shops."
-
"Was a big disappointment, no hand rails on stairs, small step up leading to lounge, toilet and bathroom was poor."
Found the tv and hob difficult to used. Misleading photo of the French door area, though it was more private than sitting in the street. I was very worried triping up in the early hours on the layout of the let. We decided not to stay even one night, booked a taxi home and left at 10pm which was very expensive but necessary.
To avoid disappointment in the future I would recommend reading the property description carefully and in full before booking. Lower Deck is exactly as described on the website. I wish you every success for the future in finding accomodation better suited to your requirements. Regards Mia. Property Owner
-
"Lower Deck is cozy, meticulously clean and very well appointed."
The owners had prepared two appetising welcome packs and they responded instantly when we found a minor problem with the TV. The flat could scarcely be more convenient for the sea, shops, cafes and restaurants yet it was always quiet at night. Warmly recommended.
-
"We were extremely comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed our stay."
So many thoughtful touches in terms of what the apartment offered made such a difference and were greatly appreciated.
-
"A lovely flat ,everything you could want, very clean , spotless"
-
"Second visit to lower deck immaculately clean Mia and Ashley very welcoming very well appointed accommodation in walking distance of bars and restaurants."
We love this area lots of places to visit and things to do . Accommodation well equipped look forward to returning in the future.
-
"Although the property is in the town centre, there is no problem with parking."
A small but rarely busy car park is situated only 50 yards along Eversley Road, and costs just £5 per day. Overnight is free. The immediate area is very quiet too, both day and night, so no problem sleeping! Convenient for the railway station, and for delightful Eastbourne and Battle. Lovely sea front and promenade, especially with the art deco De La Warr pavilion. Have a coffee on its terrace. Delightful on a sunny day! Fascinating town history too. Visit the interactive, and far from stuffy Bexhill museum. Would certainly book again.
-
"Lower Deck is a very comfortable apartment in the centre of Bexhill, literally a few steps away from the seafront and all the shops & restaurantsl."
It is certainly one of the best equipped apartments we have ever stayed in, absolutely everything you could possibly need is provided. Ecellent cleanliness. We had no problems with parking but maybe this might be a bit trickier in peak season. Really enjoyed our stay and would definately recommend
-
"We very much enjoyed staying with you and hope to stay with you again when we revisit the SE coast."
-
"It's the attention to detail that puts Lower Deck in the top rank."
Everything is to hand and nothing has been neglected. The visitors' guide book is full of good advice. A car is not needed because local buses and trains [the station is just up the road] offer a good service. Shops are close by; Co-op and Sainsburys in particular for groceries. Try the Cinnamon Café [near the Bricklayers' Arms] for a Mediterranean menu! And Mia and Ashley responded very quickly to answer a [slight] problem. Thoroughly recommended.
-
"We loved it so much we`ve booked it again already."
A lovely find. A stones throw from the lovely beach of Bexhill on Sea.. Great place for walks, swimming and enjoying the outdoors. Cosy and warm as well as spotless. Everything is provided that you can think of as well as a lovely surprise welcome pack. The shops are just around the corner.. Although Parking is not provided it is reasonably priced or there is the option of parking a few streets away for free with a pleasant walk back to Lower Deck along the prom.
-
"This is a perfect apartment."
It is close to the promenade, restaurants, shops and the De La Warr building. The apartment is spacious, clean and beautifully appointed. Mia has made it cosy and welcoming and we thoroughly enjoyed staying here. It was also close enough to visit Eastbourne, Pevensey, Battle and Hastings in the two full days we had here. And is close enough to the rail station if going by train is preferred. We hope to visit again!
-
"Lovely, well equipped and very clean property with lots of thoughtful touches."
Very close to the sea front and amenities in Bexhill. We'd never been to this area before and very much enjoyed our stay here!
-
"Comfortable and cosy accommodation."
Well equipped and in a good position for shops, restaurants and beach.
-
"A very comfortable, warm flat with great facilities and so close to the sea and town."
Bexhill on Sea was a lovely surprise with a great range of shops, restaurants and cafes. The De La Warr Pavilion is just across the road with great sea views. Trattoria Italiana has great food and the Albatross Club was very welcoming with great bar prices. There is a Pay and display car park just 50 yards away which we used for most of the week. The owners were very helpful and we would happily return.
-
"We had a lovely stay in your lovely apartment and for sure we’ll try to stay ..."
We had a lovely stay in your lovely apartment and for sure we’ll try to stay again The people and area were very nice And thanks for the welcome pack it shows the owners go above and beyond
-
"We found The Lower Deck in December 2021 by chance, after having visiting Bexhill on many previous occasions and are now asking ourselves HOW could we have missed this?"
Situated just 5 mins from the train station, a pebble throw from the beach and the lovely walkways, it was also within a short distance from the many shops and restaurants Bexhill has to offer. A beautiful property which had everything you needed. From the fully equipped kitchen with its top quality appliances, to the cosy and comfortable lounge and bedroom with all the luxuries from home. From the moment we made our enquiry regarding booking Mia, the owner, was extremely prompt with communicating and this was the case when I posted a question regarding the property, her reply was instant, a first forme, wow!! We will definitely be booking The LowerDeck for our next visit to Bexhill, availability permitting. Thank you Mia.
-
"Lower Deck is perfectly positioned to explore the Sussex coast by car or train."
The apartment was exactly like the photos, I loved it and would highly recommend staying there. It is a one minute walk to the sea front, the De La Warr Pavilion and local shops. The Christmas tree and welcome pack of delicious goodies were lovely and I felt at 'home' straight away. Parking is easy using the permits at 50p each, always spaces near the apartment.
-
"It was brilliant thank you Really enjoyed our stay ."
Good place to be
-
"Spotlessly clean, with a generous hamper left for us to enjoy."
Ideally situated just off the seafront close to shops and restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay. Thankyou
-
"The only issue we had was finding the front door, probably needs to specify it is down the alley at the left hand side of the house."
Flat had everything you need and was a great location. Plenty of good restaurants in town. No problems with parking as 2 hours free as well as the parking permits.
-
"Excellent facilities, and so close to the sea front so couldn't be better."
We spent most of our time outside walking along the sea front, and inside the property enjoying our food and wine. Can't fault the property at all, perfect for two, and the welcome package was at the very high end of expectations. Really enjoyed our stay on every level.
-
"Hi Mia, As we said on the doorstop, all was great."
The flat is lovely, and so were you! Good luck with your future rentals!
-
"Excellent accommodation, which is right in the heart of Bexhill-on-Sea and only a stones throw from the beach."
It had everything that we needed and we would definitely return again.
-
"Lower deck exceeded our expectations spotlessly clean very well equipped,very comfortable nice little touches like the welcome hamper and the fact all the cleaning products were there."
It was very well placed for all the places we wanted to visit just across the road and we where at the beach. The train station only a 6min stroll we caught the train to Brighton which was nice not to drive for a change. I got a quick response from Mia the owner when I sent her a message before we left. I would have no worries at recommending this property for a holiday also very close to some lovely restaurants and bars .
-
"We spend time of quality in a clean and bright cottage, at Lower Deck, near to sea and very close to many other facilities."
-
"A lovely apartment which was well equipped and spotlessly clean."
The location was also perfect; seafront, shops, eateries, pubs and an interesting museum close by as well as transport networks for if you want to travel further afield without using a car. We jumped on a train to Brighton, a bus to Battle and walked to Hastings. Booking was easy and communication with the owners was excellent which made finding the apartment and getting into the apartment effortless. From the moment we walked into Lower Deck, we felt relaxed and in holiday mode. In addition, a welcome pack was a lovely surprise and added icing to the cake.
-
"Very well fitted out apartment, lacking nothing."
Great location in Bexhill on Sea. Communication with owner first class
-
"We had everything we needed for our short stay at Lower Deck."
The kitchen was well equipped even including tea towels, oven gloves, coffee machine and much more - all the things you normally expect to have to take with you on a self catering holiday. A picnic basket and blankets had been provided and if the weather had been bad - cards and board games to help pass the time. The flat was ideally located for the Pavillion and prom, restaurants and shops.Parking was relatively easy initially courtesy of the local car park and then using the parking permits provided at 50p each. The small courtyard is a morning sun trap, and the flat staying a perfect temperature on a hot summers day - a relief after a day in the sun!.

The property
Nestled in the heart of the popular seaside town of Bexhill-on-Sea rests this delightful holiday home, Lower Deck.
Set a stone's throw away from the picturesque beachfront, Lower Deck offers an idyllic base for a romantic escape to the charming coastline of East Sussex.
Stepping into the property, ascend a small number of stairs and enter into a handy hallway space, offering storage to house your belongings away from the main areas of the house, where you can freshen up in the cloakroom before venturing further.
Enter into the gleaming contemporary kitchen/diner, fitted with all of the necessary amenities required to rustle up a romantic meal for two, serving at the intimate dining table to indulge in your culinary delights as you plan your fun-filled holiday itinerary.
Settle in for the evening with a seat in the snug sitting room to enjoy a movie marathon, enveloped in the warmth from the electric log burner in the cooler evenings, or if you're lucky enough to experience the warmer weather, head out to the private patio to soak in the fresh sea breeze as you toast a glass of fizz to a wonderful holiday.
When sleep calls, prepare for bed with a rejuvenating soak amongst the bubbles in the bathroom, before retiring to the delightful double bedroom, beautifully-appointed with a neutral colour scheme, offering a tranquil setting to rest your eyes ahead of a new day.
Pack up your beach going essentials and take the short stroll to Bexhill Beach, where you can indulge in an invigorating dip in the waters of the English Channel, or if you'd prefer to stay on land, enjoy a leisurely walk along the magnificent promenade that lines the seafront, stopping for a portion of fish and chips in true seaside tradition.
Tour the world-renowned contemporary art exhibitions on display at De La Warr Pavilion, set in an iconic modernist building overlooking the coast, or discover the fascinating history of the town at Bexhill Museum.
History buffs will be delighted with a visit to the nearby town of Hastings, home to the ruins of Hastings Castle, erected in 1066 under the orders of William the Conqueror, along with the nautical artifacts preserved from ships that sank in the English Channel on display at the Shipwreck Museum.
Venture further afield to the popular seaside resort of Eastbourne, otherwise known as the UK's sunniest place, where you'll find an exciting selection of shops and eateries to suit all tastes, along with a number of attractions worth visiting, including Eastbourne Miniature Steam Railway, The Royal Eastbourne Golf Club, and the Victorian Pier, where you can test your luck on the penny slots or indulge in a spot of afternoon tea with a remarkable view across the stunning coastline.
Treat your loved one to an unforgettable retreat to the seaside with a stay at Lower Deck.
Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
