A superb small, but perfectly formed, hideaway located on the headland at Selsey.
I spent a magical week exploring the coastline directly outside the property and further afield - Bracklesham Bay/the Witterings are only a short drive away. I went further afield to Bognor and Worthing as well as into Chichester. It was quite heavenly being able to hear the waves crashing from inside The Hideout and I spent many hours photographing the enormous and quite magnificent skies! I met some very friendly locals who were always keen to stand and wax lyrical about living in Selsey. It was so lovely to be able to take one of the beach chairs, left for ones use by the property owners, with a blanket and a book and sit on the beach until it was too dark to see and not have to make the effort to make a long drive home just a 30 second walk back to the property! Carole was friendly and kept in touch by text as we kept missing each other in person until the last day! A lovely bottle of rosé and some milk and water was left in the fridge which was a nice touch. Top quality linens and towels with extra blankets and enormous beach towels available as well. One minor point I hadn't quite cottoned on to is that there is no oven, but good quality hob and microwave to use if you need to cook. All in all, I'd definitely go back for another week of beach heaven.

Nachdem wir positive Erfahrungen mit dem Leuchtturm in Pencance mit Rural Retreats gemacht hatten (Jahr 2010), sind wir davon ausgegangen, dass dieses Cottage ebenso dem Standard entspricht, den wir von Rural Retreats erwarten. Das war leider überhaupt nicht so, trotz dem doch hohen Preis. Die Sachen, die uns überhaupt nicht gefallen haben: - Alle Sitzgelegenheiten im Living Room waren durchgesessen, müssen alle erneuert werden. Konnte man de-facto nicht benutzen - Junior Bedroom ist viel zu klein - Sowohl unten, wie auch oben im Bad gab es nur MINI Waschbecken, ich weiss nicht, wie man sich dort waschen kann - Die Toilette unten war nicht benutzbar - viel zu eng. Die Toilette oben war benutzbar, aber ebenfalls so eng, dass man sich bei einer Bewegung immer den rechten Ellbogen an der Holzkante auf der rechten Seite gestossen hat Von daher sind wir ziemlich enttäuscht. Ich würde ein solches Cottage aus dem Programm von Rural Retreats entfernen. Das ist nicht gemäss dem Standard, den man von Ihnen erwartet.

The Hideout was perfect, exactly as described in the write up.
It was immaculate and fully equipped with everything we needed. The beach was right outside, (perfect for an early morning swim) and the waves could be heard from the garden which was very private and so relaxing. Carol and Steve were so welcoming and such happy people, which is understandable living in such an idyllic place. I walked early every morning with my dog and often saw the sun rise, it is a very dog friendly place and walks did take a long time as everyone wanted to stop and talk. We had meals at the Lighthouse Inn and would recommend it, friendly staff, good food and a lovely garden. Another must is Paddy's Plaice, the fish and chips were delicious and recommended by all the locals. The beach near the Hideout is pebbles but there is also a lovely sandy beach in West Wittering (that allows dogs) that is a short drive away. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to relax and 'get away from it all.' A big thank you to Carol and Steve it was a brilliant holiday. Julie and Martin...and Bert.

What an absolute gem!
I was in need of a recharge by the coast and found this place which looked perfect for my dog and I. To be so close to the sea was just amazing. At low tide in the morning and evening I could take just a few steps from The Hideout and be out walking my dog along a glorious sandy beach with hardly anyone but a few other locals walking their dogs in sight. I enjoyed a beautiful sunset with the beach to myself on the Saturday night. Loved listening to the waves when I relaxed in the garden to give my dog a rest from all the walking. It's a little suntrap! The accommodation has everything you could need, is really comfortable, and Carol the host was so helpful whenever I had a question. The perfect place to relax, enjoy coastal walks and with really friendly locals. Highly recommend and I will be returning!
