Long Island

Holiday Rental Description

Offering contemporary beachside living, this home by the sea is an idyllic space to unplug and reconnect with yourself and your loved ones. You'll get a quintessential British seaside experience with the set-up of what could well pass as an American beach home in Long Island.

We love the open-plan layout of the main living area, which centres itself around the magnificent sea views framed by the huge floor-to-ceiling windows that run along the back of the home. Open up the patio doors and breathe in the fresh sea air while letting all of your worries slowly disappear. This place indeed presents an escape from reality.

Enjoy the luxurious home comforts carefully selected by the host to ensure guests have a pleasurable stay centred around leisure and entertainment. Lounge around in front of the crackling fire after an afternoon of watersports in the sea and make the most of the outdoor dining area with alfresco meals or drinks whilst watching the balmy sunset colour the sky in the distance. Inside each of the bedrooms, you'll find a secluded slice of privacy and a place to relax throughout the day and, of course, when it's time to hit the hay. Don't forget to try out the telescope for some stargazing before taking yourselves off to bed, though, as the night's sky here glitters above when the weather is clear.

With so many sites worth visiting nearby, we recommend exploring the likes of Arundel Castle for some history and culture – a thirty-five-minute drive away as well as the historic city of Chichester, reachable in just nineteen minutes by car. Nature lovers are also in luck here, as you'll have easy access to an area of outstanding natural beauty, with the South Downs National Park and Chichester Harbour both just a forty-minute drive away.
