• "A very comfortable property in a great location."

  Val is a very generous host providing, as others have said, many extras. I happened to mention that it was my husband's birthday on the day we arrived and she kindly left him a card and some chocolates. Five star treatment! We were lucky with the weather and enjoyed a few early evenings in the garden overlooking the sea in the sunshine. Cooden Beach station is only a few minutes walk away with easy access to many places of interest along the south coast. We did trips to Eastbourne, Bexhill and Hastings. We had a lovely relaxing time and would certainly consider returning. Thank you!

  The living accommodation was spacious, attractive and comfortable. The owner was very welcoming and generous with many unexpected extras. The kitchen was fully equipped and a comprehensive folder gave instructions on how to use the appliances. Information about places to visit and suggestions for eating out was also available. The beautiful garden, with access to the beach, was a joy to relax in and the patio made a lovely additional place to take tea! Overall, Hebrand House is a perfect self-catering cottage.

• "The house is surrounded by a superb garden created by the owner over many years."

  There are lovely hydrangeas, yuccas, shrubs, palm trees all suited to the coastal climate, surrounding stripped lawns. Alcoves catch the sun and provide shelter from the wind The entrance to the accommodation is through an arch way of sweet peas. We were welcomed by the owner to what is like entering a spacious and light suite of a five-star hotel. It is furnished to a high standard and decorated in an attractive maritime theme. In addition, there is a welcoming bowel of fruit as well as thick marmalade, coffee and tea. Wonderful. We have booked for next year.

  Valerie was there to greet me and show me around, she had very kindly left a fruit bowl and welcome hamper, including milk for my first cuppa. The cottage is perfect, very clean, fully equipped and centrally heated and in a beautiful location on the coast, with direct access to the pebble beach.

There is a well stocked shop at the nearby station, it's just a 2 minute walk to the cottage from Cooden Beach station, great if you're not driving.

• "An amazing one week stay!"

  The annexe is beautifully maintained and everything possible provided for your use and comfort. We spent most days in the beautiful, sunny garden sitting looking out over the beach, absolutely stress free. We know the area well and didn't feel the need to venture far. Looking forward to a 2 week stay next year!

• "We loved our stay at Herbrand House."

  The accommodation is second to none, tastefully decorated extremely clean and well maintained offering every comfort. Access to the beautiful garden with views of the beach and sea is the cherry on the cake. This property couldn't be in a nicer spot away from it all yet within easy access to all that Sussex and Kent has to offer, what more could you want. We were very taken by the welcoming touches left by the owner, a beautiful vase of roses and huge bowl of fruit as well has home made biscuits and basics to keep us going. The owner obviously takes great pride in what she does and it definitely shows. This place is a little gem and we will definitely be back. Highly recommended.

• "Herbrand House - Exceeded Expectations."

  Fully deserves its 5 star rating. Everything was excellent. There was a warm welcome from Valerie, comfortable and clean accommodation with excellent facilities and a lovely welcome package. We especially enjoyed sitting on the sheltered patio with its outlook through the garden to the sea. Sykes - Failed to Meet Expectations. In April 2021 we were given no option but to rebook our holiday, at increased cost, due to COVID travel ban. Sykes later revised its policy on refunds but this option was not offered to those that had already rebooked. In April 2021 we had to take holiday. No other option was offered! This despite many COVID restrictions still being in place, meaning that things that one would reasonably expect to enjoy when on holiday were not available, eg indoor dining, indoor attractions, entertainment etc. and we had to prebook visits to most outdoor attractions that we would normally visit on an ad hoc basis dependant on our mood and the weather. In our view Sykes is out of line with other companies in this sector and we will not be using them again unless their policies are clearly changed to give fairer options to all customers. Thanks for listening.

• "A holiday at Herbrand House is a joy."

  Following a period of "lock down" the comfort and peace offered by an escape to this location was greatly appreciated. We received a very warm welcome from Valerie, the owner, who left the apartment well provisioned with fresh fruit, flowers, bread, biscuits and sundry other items all of which ensured that we settled in speedily and with ease. The apartment is beautifully appointed and spotlessly clean. A good supply of reading materials is provided both fictional and factual. As keen walkers, we particularly enjoyed the book of walks recommended for the area and used it each day. Additionally, Valerie was often on hand to offer advice on locations of interest which are worthy of a visit. The garden at Herbrand, through which the beach may be accessed, is superb. In mid April it is lovely and we imagine that in high summer it will be glorious. Whether a keen gardener, or someone simply seeking a place to sit and enjoy a coffee or glass of wine, it adds a special element to the holiday. Although the temperature in the evenings, during our visit, did not allow for outdoor dining, we will retain, with pleasure the memory of sitting in a sheltered and cosy seating area overlooking the sea, enjoying our morning coffee in the glorious Sussex sunshine. We often book holiday accommodation via Sykes Cottages and in our opinion this is one of the best.

  Beautiful garden surrounds the house, the pride and joy of owner, Valerie, who could not be more helpful and thoughtful. In good weather, this would be a spectacular place to stay. In bad weather, it’s still much better than staying at home! So much of interest in the area. eg.
