Beautiful cottage in the heart of Brighton

Not what it says on the tin....

Very disapointed on entering the property to find how small it was and tbere was a distinct smell of smoke even though its supposed to be non smoking. The owners of this property suggest that it sleeps up to 8 people however there is not enough room downstairs for more than 4 people to sit. Everything in the cottage is cute & quirky but it is very tired and grubby. The sofa beds are so uncomfortable that you can hardly sit let alone sleep on them. The bed linen that was provided all had stains and looked very unsanitary and barely fit for use. On a possitive note the cottage is in a fantastic location for access to the best parts of the town however this does make it very noisy. The pubs either side do not switch their music off until gone midnight and then are making more noise by 5am by shifting bins and emptying bottles. We love Brighton but will not be returning to this accomodation.

About the host

Hosted by Jacqueline

I am proud to present my Alice in Wonderland themed holiday cottage. I have lived in Brighton for 18 years so can advise on local restaurants and things to do. I want you to enjoy your stay in this brilliant city as much as I enjoy it. That's why I ended up moving here!

Why they chose this property

I LOVE this 16th century cottage and it's amazing location, right by the sea, shops and bars. You can't beat it for a crashed in town! My husband and I walked past it many times and heard about it's heritage in one of the many Brighton guided tours, never dreaming we would one day own it. When the opportunity presented itself we grabbed it and I have thoroughly enjoyed renovating it to create this sophisticated Wonderland boutique accommodation.

What makes this property unique

You won't need to worry about budgeting for taxi fares as this property is slap bang in the middle of all the action whilst still being tucked away. You can roll out of bed and onto the beach in minutes. The luxury finishings mean you get a boutique experience with the exclusivity of your own place.
