Nestled in the coastal village of Rye Harbour in Sussex, is this superb two-bedroom cottage, 23 Coastguard Cottages.

Step into the kitchen, featuring garden views and a handy dishwasher and washing machine, where you can rustle up mouth-watering dishes, ready to be enjoyed at the dining table for four or alfresco out on your private patio. After dinner, why not take advantage of the steps that lead from your garden up to the river and head out for a walk with your pooch where you can both stretch your legs? Kick-back and relax on the plush sofas in front of a much-loved film on the Smart TV or challenge your loved ones to a game of table football which can be found in the conservatory. Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you can indulge in a soothing soak in the bath or wash away the day with a refreshing shower after a day of exploring. When sleep calls, choose from two well-appointed bedrooms to catch your rest, a king-size with views out towards the river and beyond, and a twin. Explore the local village, where right on your doorstep you will find the popular William the Conqueror pub, well-known for its delicious and fresh seafood and lovely river views. There is also the welcoming eateries of Avocet Tea Room and Bosun’s Bite, or if you don’t fancy heading out, you can pick up essentials at the well-stocked supermarket. Outdoor enthusiasts will delight at the nearby wildlife rich Rye Harbour Nature Reserve, where you can spot rare species and visit the landmark Red Roofed Hut, whilst budding historians can enjoy the fascinating remains of Camber Castle, built by Henry VIII, and the abandoned Mary Stanford Lifeboat House. For a truly memorable experience, why not hire a boat and cruise along the River Rother as you take in the fabulous views?
