We enjoyed the location of the cottage which is directly at the Cooden Beach.. We also enjoyed the beautiful garden and the very comfortable rooms with nice decorations and furnitures. Mrs. Tarry, the owner of the cottage, was very friendly and welcoming.

Val is a very thoughtful but never intrusive host, providing many extras which one could not normally expect, including homemade shortbread and marmalade - delicious.. This is a perfect spot for a peaceful and relaxing break sitting in Val's lovely garden with a wonderful panorama of the sea.
Mrs Adamson

The cottage was very well equipped with a lovely welcoming basket of homemade biscuits, tea, coffee, bread and milk in the fridge.. Plus a large bowl of fresh fruit. Brilliant. It was in a great location with fantastic views and Val our host was extremely friendly without being intrusive. She was also very informative about the area and helped us on a few occasions when we required help.

We rarely go back to the same holiday place more than once.. This was our third stay at Herbrand House, and that says it all! As expected the warm welcome from Valarie was the start of another excellent week here. The location, with the walk through her lovely garden to the beach is a delight, and the high quality accommodation was as we remembered. We also had good weather to enjoy visits to local towns etc that we had not visited before, like Rye and Winchelsea, and the Bexhill Museum . This property must be a jewel in Sykes crown!

The welcome that is afforded by Valerie the owner is fantastic.. Home made biscuits, marmalade, fresh coffee and bread with a lovely bowl of fruit. All this and a wonderful view of the sea and walk onto the beach. The garden is an Italianate gem, beautifully maintained and reminding us of the Villas in Ravello, Italy. We will return and thank you Valerie. A real gem.

Herbrand House is the best Sykes Cottage that we have every stayed in.. The house is finished to a high standard and is equipped with everything you will need for your holiday including lots of welcome goodies like fruit and home made biscuits provided by Valerie, the owner. The house is surrounded by wonderful gardens with direct access to the quiet beach of Bexhill. Valerie made us very welcome and provide good advice on where to visit. We would highly recommend a stay at Herbrand House.

Herbrand House is an absolute gem.. With the owner living next door absolutely everything is taken care of. There was a basket of fruit, home made biscuits & lots of other goodies waiting for us when we arrived, freshly cut flowers from the garden & lots of other little touches to welcome us & make us feel instantly at home. There are beautiful gardens right by the sea to relax in and the facilities in the house itself are faultless. We had a superb week - I cannot recommend highly enough

A Beautifully situated, clean and well decorated cottage, with all that you need for a lovely holiday.. Mrs Tarry (Val) welcomed us on our arrival and gave us a familiarising tour of the cottage. The welcome pack was very much appreciated and substancive, including tea, coffee, milk, bread, sugar and some lovely home made marmalade, fresh fruit also. The garden is spot on with your own sitting area on the patio and freedom to wander around the garden. access to the beach from the bottom of the garden is great. We had a wonderful week and the weather was superb. I would highly recommend this cottage and look forward to visiting again.

We would defy anyone who did not praise this holiday accommodation.. Val the owner and host was most welcoming and loved people admiring her wonderful garden. Herbrand House has everything you need for your holiday.The decor and furnishings are ideal for being beside the sea.It is well equipped and very comfortable. There is a welcome pack when you arrive of fresh fruit and homemade biscuits and milk. There are many interesting places to visit in the area by car bus and local trains and walks on the coast and the downs are a must. Herbrand House will not disappoint for your holiday by the sea.

Mr Dixon

This accommodation is superb.. Its position is wonderful with the virtually deserted beach at the bottom of the lovely gardens. The annexe is extremely well equipped and the welcome and attention from the owner exceptional. We have stayed in many places but this is by far the best

This is the best holiday self catering we have ever stayed in.. Val Tarry the owner was there to welcome us and show us round. The place was spotless. We loved the delicate blue seaside theme which carried throughout the apartment. The beds and linen were high quality and conducive to good sleep. The bathroom was well appointed with a good size shower with seat and plenty of hot water. The highlight was the beautiful garden which stretched from a beautiful frontage of large proportions to the amazing rear garden extending right down to the beach. The gardens are planted with a never ending variety of salt hardy plants with the English channel as a backdrop. Everything was perfect, so peaceful and quiet and yet just five mins walk to the station and local shop. BexHill about 7 mins drive. We have already re booked for the summerecipient. Herbrand certainly deserves it's top star rating

Herbrand cottage provided us with a unique location and superb accommodation.. The owners little touches, home made cookies and marmalade, supplies of tea, coffee and milk, combined with the beautiful sea side themed decor made our week most memorable. We have booked two further visits here and would recommend it unreservedly.

This was an excellent property on the beach and very near a hotel with good food.. Also near Cooden Beach train station so easy access to Eastbourne, Hastings and Brighton etc. on the train. We were made very welcome by Valerie. The accommodation is excellently appointed and was very comfortable to sit and eat. Definitely worth another visit.

The accommodation exceeded our expectations.. Valerie, our host was most welcoming, EVERY detail/comfort had been considered inside the cottage, from the well stocked kitchen, very comfortable king sized bed, beautiful decor, through to the surprise reception pack including a bowl of fresh fruit, croissants, crisps, tea, coffee, milk, sugar, marmalade and homemade biscuits. There was even the daily newspaper ready for us to read. The garden was spectacular, overlooking the sea which was at the end of the garden, ( with many seating areas provided), what a stunning view to wake up to each morning! We would thoroughly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a luxury holiday break providing peace and tranquilly. THE BEST HOLIDAY COTTAGE WE HAVE EVER BEEN TO. Thank you Valerie.

Herbrand House was in a lovely seaside location. It was a modern accommodation; with lovely gardens. We also had a lovely welcome from the owner. What more do you want from a summer holiday by the sea?
Mr Styles

The cottage was perfect, well laid out, good quality furniture and fittings, nothing had been overlooked or scrimped on in the preparation of this cottage. There was a fabulous garden to sit over looking the beach. The owner was helpful and there if needed, not that we had any problems, they were happy to advise on attractions in the area. I Would be happy to recommend this cottage and we would like to stay there again myself.

This has to be the best holiday cottage we have stayed at. The owner has put a lot of thought into the cottage. The kitchen was brilliantly equipped and everything else in the cottage was to a very high standard. The location was amazing. The owner was very friendly and helpful and her garden was fabulous! We will be coming again one day!
