Guests say
Dreamcatcher is a well-received holiday rental with stunning sea views and a prime location for beach access and local amenities. Guests appreciate the comfortable beds, sociable space, and the property's cleanliness. The picturesque setting and proximity to attractions make it an ideal base for exploring or relaxing by the sea.
Most guests found Dreamcatcher to be very clean, with spotless mirrors and well-maintained common areas. However, a few noted issues with window cleanliness and bathroom maintenance, slightly affecting the overall impression.
The location is highly praised for its stunning sea views and proximity to local shops, cafes, and attractions. The ease of beach access and the quiet, picturesque setting contribute to a very positive experience.
Guests consistently mention the comfortable beds and the pleasant sociable spaces. Some minor discomforts were noted, such as a draughty downstairs bedroom and creaky doors, but overall, the property provides a comfortable stay.
The property is well-equipped with essentials and offers a good cooking space. However, some guests suggested improvements in outdoor furniture and bathroom maintenance. The presence of a well-appointed kitchen and sociable living areas are positives.
While some guests mentioned appreciating a cake and milk in the fridge, there are not enough references to gifts or additional thoughtful touches to accurately assess this category. It should be noted that such gestures, while appreciated, are not guaranteed.

A 2-mile narrow gauge seaside light railway, a funfair, the Hayling wwii Heritage Trail, seaside walks, pubs, restaurants, and shops. Along with a theatre, Alpacas, and a donkey sanctuary. There are 3 marinas, Hayling Island sailing club and Hayling Island yacht club. Hayling boasts one of the top one hundred links golf courses in England (Hayling Golf Club), as well as a family friendly ‘Beachlands’ pitch and putt par 3 course and ‘Tournerbury golf centre’ an intermediate course.
Further afield, get the ferry across to Portsmouth with waterside dining, designer outlets, HMS Victory and the Mary Rose Museum, pop over to the Isle of Wight or visit Goodwood for the Festival of Speed or the Goodwood revival.

Whilst the House is in a fantastic location, right on the beach. Hayling Island is a very quiet place with not too many things to do or see on the island.This was fine for us on a Christmas Break, not doing too much, with nice walks along the beach, but others might find it 'too quiet' with the need to keep driving on and off the Island to get to any major shops or attractions.In all, it suited us as a couple, with no kids to entertain.

Fabulous location, even on a windy weekend in October, with the most amazing view from the lounge. A very clean and comfortable home from home.Dreamcatcher was exactly as the photographs showed online. We had a lovely walk along the beach and found The Mad Hatter tea shop where we received a very warm welcome … can highly recommend a visit.

Whilst this place is in an absolutely stunning location the house itself is particularly dated. The entire downstairs felt like it had been forgotten and felt like a totally different house. The space in the front room could have been so much better utilised as that sofa is far too big and uncomfortable.Windows were filthy so couldn’t see much outside, I know it’s on the seafront but every other house in that area had clean windows so not a beach side issue.Kitchen fully equipped with everything you could need. Not entirely sure why that many mirrors are needed everywhere, although they were all completely spotless and clean. The only room that felt like it wasn’t very clean was the downstairs bedroom, again it felt like it had been forgotten when decorating, very plain, cold and uninviting.
