What our customers say about their holidays

• Duncan - Verified booking

  A real “home from home” in a safe & quiet residential area with all amenities within a few minutes drive.

  The fully enclosed rear garden leading off from the kitchen was one of the reasons we chose this property which allowed our dogs the freedom to roam while we relaxed within the house. There are wooden floors in the hall, partly in the lounge & dining room and a tiled floor in the kitchen, I mention this as one of our dogs is unable to walk on these types of surfaces due to a hip problem, to overcome this, we always take rubber backed carpet runners - you might want/need to do the same. Although this is a dog friendly house, there aren’t any doggie smells (in case you haven’t got dogs). There are no net curtains or blinds to any of the windows and anyone passing can see through from the front window all the way to the rear garden, this took some getting used to...(especially upstairs when you get out of bed & throw the curtains open to the front of the house). The owners have thought of everything within the house and even supplied a small welcome pack (nice touch). We enjoyed our 2 week stay immensely and will be returning in the future. If you are considering booking this property for your next break I would highly recommend it.

  The house is very welcoming and comfortable and everything is there - home from home.

  It is easy to contact the hosts if one needs, which is important on holiday, and they are charming. There is a very pleasant garden which is an added bonus. It exceeded expectations in all areas, except for its listing on the website. The reason why my listing score is so low is that I rang to check whether there were two bathrooms, not easy to tell from the 'Last Minute Cottages' website back in March. Somebody, either from Kent & Sussex Cottages or yourselves, rang back to say there were definitely two bathrooms. In fact, there is one very nice, large bathroom with a bath and a separate shower but, apart from that, there is only a small downstairs cloakroom. We were a party of six adults (all over 30) with only one couple, which is why we wanted two bathrooms. I found it confusing to have to book through so many different agents at the beginning - 'Last Minute Cottages', then 'Kent & Sussex Cottages' and finally Sykes Cottages.

  Myself, brother and our families took my 92 year old dad down to spend some time with his brother who lives in Goring.

  I had received an e-mail the previous day from the lovely John and Sue who sent directions and explained how to get into the property. We arrived and found a very spacious, very well equipped house. Considering there was 8 of us, there was plenty of room. Our only negative is for that amount if people, it would have been nice to of had an extra bathroom (which could easily be added to one of the huge bedrooms) but please don’t take this as a complaint as the house description was accurate and it would not stop us staying at this property again. Will just have to plan wash rota better in advance!. The property was really well located, close to a selection of shops. We all agreed that it was a beautiful, solid family house that felt really homely. Would highly recommend to anyone and will almsosr certainly be back. Thank you so much for a wonderful study.

  We had a lovely holiday in this spacious, comfortable and clean house.

  Thoughtfully equipped and just as in the description and photos. The walk in shower was particularly appreciated- very adjustable and powerful. Great location, very peaceful but lots of amenities a short walk away. For longer trips we used the car and found it easy to get out on the main roads to explore Sussex's many attractions. We also used the local bus service and the train from the station down the road- both proved very easy to use and meant we could all enjoy a pint and not worry about parking. We really liked the local Bengali restaurant, Shafiques, which was a 5 minute stroll away. Also, the 'Sistine Chapel' fresco in The English Martyr's Church is well worth a visit as is Worthing Museum (free entry) especially for anyone who likes British costumes.

  We stayed at Broadstone Bungalow for a short weekend. It was very comfortable, warm and inviting. We found it peaceful and well located if you want to explore North Chailey and other surrounding Commons. Wildlife visited us with a fleeting view of a deer and owls hooting. It is less than 10 minute drive to the Bluebell Steam Railway at Sheffield Park which was great for us as we had tickets for the "Giants of Steam 2023 Gala" which was wonderful. The cottage was a joy to return to after a busy day out. It is very well equipped and had everything we needed. Thanks to our kind hosts who left us a welcome pack of milk, local apple juice and shortbread. We had a lovely weekend.
