Looking for an easy breezy coastal retreat just moments from the beach? We've got you covered. This immaculately-presented family home is just a three-minute hop from the pebble shores of sleepy Wittering in West Sussex. Newly renovated, light-filled and united by a sophisticated, neutral palette, you'll feel right at home here. Sunny days call for lazy alfresco brunches on the terrace while little ones and their four-legged friends burn off some energy on the vast manicured lawns. Then pack up your beach bags and head to the seafront for kite flying and paddling – or up the ante with kayaking and paddleboard hire in West Wittering. And when tummies start to rumble, you can easily pop back home to rustle up a picnic or swing by the local beachfront café. Meanwhile, wintery days are all about bracing beach walks for a dose of sea air before hunkering down back home. Break out the home's board games around the dining table. Challenge your crew to a pool and air hockey game in the garden room or games console session. Then drop and flop for a cosy film night – there's stacks to keep you busy here. And if you need to slope away to catch up on work, the top-floor bedroom has a dedicated desk space – just try not to get too distracted by those sweeping sea views.
