Brighton in an immaculate home for 8 guests.

Our beautifully restored, spacious, entire family home (which has a dog but will not be present) is available for discerning guests who will respect our home. This is not a party house as we have terraced neighbours. Huge, bright, sunny, double fronted property comfortably sleeps 8 adults with one side of the house used as a kitchen diner. The house is a 9 minutes walk from the beach, town centre and train station and a short drive from The Famous South Downs Countryside. Tastefully done with a modern feel, our home has 4 large double and king size bedrooms and the whole house has a modern and contemporary feel, one side of the property has been renovated to achieve the full space of a 20 metered kitchen and diner. The First of TWO KING SIZED BEDROOMS has it's own ensuite and Juliette balcony and the other 3 bedrooms one of which has another King size bed will all have use of the large "family" bathroom with Victorian roll top bath and Rose head "proper" power shower. The sitting room is again 20meters with an eclectic mix of comfort, style and space, easily accommodating 8 guests. Guests will have access to the whole house. We will not be present at the booking as there is a key pad combination lock storing the front door key. The house is perfect for the older guests or families who want to see their family and friends or walkers to the local South Downs. This is also a great base for those that want to spend time in Brighton for a reasonable rate, but not stay in the centre of town. SMOKING IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED WITHIN THE HOUSE A stones throw away from the conservation area of Montpellier this large, "double fronted" house is amongst one of the best in the area with the outstanding and trendy Small Batch Coffee Shop, Flour pot cafe, the Italian delicatessen and The Good Companion Gastro pub serving real cask ales at the top of road. The number 7 bus takes you into the heart of Brighton which takes 14minutes to ride, to walk is even quicker and takes 10minutes, on the spot taxi's can be called and arrive within 5 minutes on (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN). You also have the historic town of Lewes 15minutes away, the incredible South Downs Way only 5 miles away for walking and rambling. ENJOYING BRIGHTON – A GUIDE FOR THE INQUISITIVE.
