  • "Fantastic accommodation in a great location."

    As a party of 12 adults and 3 children the amenities were well thought out and provided comfort to all. Would say the single beds and bunk beds were slightly small for adults but for a short stay we managed ok.

  • "Cliffhanger is an amazing property, the views are stunning."

    The house itself is immaculate and had everything you needed. Max the owner was there to meet us when we arrived to show us around which was really helpful. I would highly recommend this property to stay at.

  • "Fantastic property for our needs."

    I did think for the price it was a bit much to tell the guests that they needed to strip the beds and put it into laundry bags. We all thought this was very cheeky.

  • "The house was beautifully decorated but felt like a home."

    Excellent facilities, the grandchildren enjoyed the hot tub and the decked area was wonderful to sit and enjoy the view. The owners next door we’re extremely helpful and friendly but not intrusive. All in all an excellent holiday.

  • "Stayed at cliffhanger with my family, 9 adults and 2 children and it was absolutely fantastic."

    The owners communication prior to arrival was great, they were so lovely and left a very generous welcome basket and freshly baked cake. The house is just stunning, the decor is amazing and we felt really at home staying there. Every room is kitted out and has its own beautiful bathroom except the bunk room which the children stayed in. The hot tub was amazing and we could almost fit everyone in. But it was the views, honestly the location is just spot on. We would definitely stay again!

  • "A beautiful house that has been furnished and equipped with great care."

    It was big enough that 7 of us could each have some space if we needed it, and yet the dining and lounge areas both felt cosy. The hot tub was great!!! We were really impressed with the welcome pack - champagne, biscuits, eggs, coffee and milk, the most amazing home-made cake, and the enormous Christmas tree in the hall which actually made us feel quite emotional, after what has been a difficult year for everyone. The only (very) small niggle was that we didn't find the instructions for replacing the bin liners, or sorting out the recycling until our last day, as they were in a drawer we hadn't opened. Perhaps a folder with all details in could be placed prominently so it would be seen at the very beginning? Overall, though, one of the best houses we have ever stayed in, which lived up to all our expectations.

  • "We had a fantastic stay at Cliffhanger, it helped in being a very balmy October weekend with beautiful wall to wall sunshine."

    The property is a real treat, luxurious and comfortable bedrooms, a lovely sociable kitchen and dining area and a simply fabulous deck with a huge hot tub. We couldn't have asked for more. The property is set in a quiet street in St Leonards but is in walking distance to the beach. Katie left some delightful welcome treats which was lovely. Would definitely return. Couldn't recommend enough.

  • "We had a great time at Cliffhanger."

    The house is huge and finished to a very highly standard, great for a large group not to feel on top of each other. The views from deck and hot tub are amazing. There are many great places nearby to visit, Rye, Camber Sands, Beachy Head to name a few. The owners are next door and very helpful but not at all intrusive. We would highly recommend and will look to return in the future.

  • "We spent a really great weekend at Cliffhanger."

    Initially I was a bit concerned that the owners live not only next door but attached to the property as I was celebrating my 50th birthday! This turned out not to be a problem at all. The house had everything you could wish for and more, the only thing it lacked was a cheese grater although it might just be that we couldn't find it. The hot tub was fantastic and a definite plus. The only minor things that were a tiny bit of a let down were the sizes of the 2 double beds when split into 2 singles in that they were really narrow singles plus a 3rd bed in one of the rooms was a short bed so I wouldn't say that the house sleeps 11 adults comfortably for all. All in all we had a fabulous stay at Cliffhanger which is a beautiful house and the owners were very friendly, helpful and hospitable. Thank you for making my weekend a truly memorable one!

About the location

HASTINGS

Battle 6 miles; Rye 12 miles.

The large historic town of Hastings offers a great mix of interesting places to visit, and is comprised of three parts, joined by the promenade. On one side is the Old Town, with narrow streets or 'twittens', attractive houses, Shipwreck and Fisherman's museums, wonderful tall black net huts, a fresh fish market, seafood restaurants and cafés. In the middle there is a contemporary shopping centre and on the other side is St Leonards on Sea with its fashionable Norman Road with antique and vintage shops, art galleries, examples of Burton's architecture (of Kew Gardens and London Zoo fame), Marine Court Art Deco flats designed in the shape of the HMS Queen Mary, and the remains of the Amsterdam, which is visible at low tide at Bulverhythe. West Hill in Hastings is home to the Smugglers Adventure and Pelham Beach, and East Hill offers the Hastings Country Park, 660 acres of ancient woodlands, grasslands and heathlands crossing five miles over cliffs and rugged terrain, plus East Hill can also be reached by taking the 'lift', the steepest funicular railway in Britain. Whilst exploring Hastings, visit The Stade and watch fishermen land their catch, plus why not take a trip to Blue Reef Aquarium and the remains of Hastings Castle? Pevensey Castle, dating from the 4th century, and the first Norman Church are twelve miles away. Further afield enjoy the NT properties of Bodiam Castle, Sissinghurst and Scotney Castle, the cinque port of Rye, the abbey at Battle or the beach and dunes at Camber Sands.
