  6 a.m.

  shotgun-fire in the adjoining fields *every* morning sent us home early, more exhausted than when we arrived. Bizarre, unfinished renovation - certainly not "thorough" as described - unpainted bare plaster walls, no light switches for the kitchen near the living room/front door, the downstairs toilet is now off the kitchen where the hall wall has been removed, ugh. No measuring jug/spoons/kitchen scales. Single glazed windows with no coverings in places at the back, will be very cold in winter! Bathroom toilet doesn't flush properly, dirty windows throughout, unkempt/unmown garden... No welcome info on arrival, spent the 1st evening trying to get onto wifi (the arrival email came the next day). The cottage feels unloved/unwanted - nowhere close to other 4* cottages we've stayed in, sadly. The picture of the sunroom is taken from the Carr Taylor vineyard's outdoors terrace, making it like a fishbowl, completely lacking privacy - needs a hedge planting! Cottage is at the entrance to the vineyard RIGHT NEXT to visitor's area, which is just not made clear on the listing - it is certainly not private/secluded/away from it all!!! The lane is very busy with constant cars, vans, minibuses and full size coaches coming and going all day, sometimes making it difficult to get to the cottage and on/off the drive. Not "idyllic" as described, by our definition. However, the milk/butter and dog bits were appreciated and the log burner was lovely!! Well-placed for access to Hastings, Rye and the south coast, Battle, High Weald etc.

  We hebben een fijn verijf gehad bij Oak meadow.

  Het huis is gezellig en karakteristiek ingericht. Er stond een fantastisch welkomst pakket klaar met wijn, brood, chips en koekjes! Ook een ruime voorraad toiletpapier. Geen kaal huis dus. De houtkachel is heerlijk en er staat een mand met hout klaar. Er is 1 ruim tweepersoons bed. De andere 2 zijn smal. Goed om daar op te letten. Onze twee pubers hebben we maar het grootste bed gegeven om te delen.. De schoonmaak kan net wat beter. We troffen toch nog hondenharen aan van de gast voor ons ( als ik de andere recentie zo lees:)). Maar het is ook een ouder huisje met planken vloeren. Dus lastiger te reinigen. 1 advies aan de eigenaar: de kleine bank zit echt niet meer goed. Verder hielp ze ons heel snel toen we ons per ongeluk buiten sloten en er problemen waren met de watervoorzieningin de regio. Nogmaals dank daarvoor!

  We had a lovely stay at Greengates, i loved the location.

  The bungalow is nice and bright. It sleeps four indoors, to sleep six, two people have to sleep in the shed! It's a nice shed with a sink and a freezer! The garden is lovely and relatively dog secure, one of the fences near the sluice was just flimsy chicken wire, but our dog didn't test it. One border of the garden is water and depending on the tide this can be high or low and has friendly swans. The cottage provided some swan food and we found if you shake the tin the swans rush over, they can't get into the garden from the water though. The kitchen is very compact and only has two cooking rings and a small fridge, the freezer is in the shed. The heating and hot water worked well.

  This is an immaculate, comfortable and very well equipped property.

  It is tucked away and extremely quiet despite being in Seaford itself. The owners are very helpful and eager to make sure your stay is perfect. If you are not intending to use the washing machine it may be advisable to bring some spare towels - although a set are provided. We were able to park on the road virtually outside the property. There is a Tesco store five minutes walk away and the town centre with a Morrisons only a few minutes further. The buses are frequent and it is a beautiful ride through the downs to the Seven Sisters Country Park and Eastbourne. We highly recommend this property and will stay here every time we visit the area.
