Enjoy a taste of beachside living and escape to the coast at this charming old coastguard's abode. Step off the beach and into this home for an evening spent snuggling up and getting cosy, or sip an al fresco tipple in the garden. Stunning views are a real treat to wake up to before heading out to explore your glorious surroundings.

Leave coats, leads and sandy footwear in the porch before continuing through to the open-plan living space. Throw open the French doors and let the fresh sea air fill the house and your lungs as it flows throughout. The lounge area is a sophisticated spot for a cup of tea and a good book, or curl up in the conservatory which is a light, bright space. Cook up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen and dine in style with family and friends. The classic charm of this bolthole continues past the ground floor twin and upstairs to the spacious king-size bedroom where you can admire the wonderful views from the Captain's chair. Freshening up is a treat in the pleasant bathroom where muddy paws can be rinsed with ease and you can enjoy a relaxing soak in the bath.

Paddle, splash and savour a tasty picnic at the local beach where you can wander across the shingle and work up a healthy appetite. If you prefer a roam which includes spying out nature and wildlife, head to the Rye Harbour Nature Reserve, 7 miles from home or 3 miles to the Hastings Country Park Nature Reserve which is known for its fantastic biodiversity management.
