    Holiday Cottages in Sussex

    When we close our eyes and imagine the ideal image of England, most of us picture Sussex. This stunning southeastern county, the birthplace of Vera Lynn, Ronnie Barker and the best ale in Britain, is the epitome of the English countryside.

    It's the place to find fallow deer, scampering across bright green hills. A place to peruse farmer's markets and sample homemade jam. Sussex is fields of wildflowers, the clip of horse's hoofs on cobblestones, and the thick, whimsical woodland, that Winnie the Pooh calls home.

    Over the years, countless poets and authors have attempted to sum up the charm of the Sussex countryside. Here at Snaptrip, we don't think any of them did it better than the prolific poet Rudyard Kipling in his work 'Run of the Downs'. After describing the epic beauty of his local landscape, speaking to his neighbours, Kipling said 'You be glad you are Sussex born!'

    Three Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty

    Sussex is a place that's so stunning, it has a certificate to prove it. The county is home to three incredible Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which combined, take up a vast portion of its overall size.

    The High Weald, the Sussex Downs and Chichester Harbour are all exemplary examples of just how beautiful the English countryside can be. Each one is home to a vast range of glorious walking routes which display not just Sussex, but Britain at its very best.

    If you're after a Snaptrip favourite, we recommend walking from Southbourne to Chichester. While relatively long, this 11.5 miles route is gentle, meandering smoothly through the area's most beautiful villages and waterways. Expect to see quaint cottages, gorgeous fishing boats, and at the right time of year, a glorious array of wildflowers.

    Sussex is fiercely independent

    Sussex is known for being perhaps the most fiercely independent county in England. Its unofficial motto 'we will not be driven', sums up the way Sussex citizens take pride in thinking for themselves and always stick together.

    However, despite their passion for unity, one rivalry divides the people of Sussex - the age-old question of where has more to offer, East of West Sussex? While we at Snaptrip think both halves of the southeastern county are equally beautiful, with more than enough to give, the question stands of which is right for you.

    East Sussex offers picture-postcard beauty

    If you're looking to wander across the front of a picture postcard, East Sussex is the place to be. Home to the white cliffs of Seven Sisters, the rolling hills of Hastings and the idyllically English Bluebell Railway, East Sussex is a place to fill your photo reel with quintessential countryside images.

    What's more, East Sussex boasts the tiny town of Rye. One of Britain's best-kept secrets, Rye is one of the best-preserved medieval towns on the planet and the perfect place to wander cobbled streets and explore ancient wood-beamed inns.

    West Sussex is home to incredible architecture

    For some of the most incredible buildings man has ever made, head to the West. West Sussex is home to Chichester Cathedral, Wakehurst Estate and country home and art gallery, Petworth House. Also in West Sussex is the delightfully decadent Goodwood House, a glorious country mansion which hosts Great Gatsby style events.

    The brightest gem in West Sussex's crown, however, is Arundel Castle. The restored home of the Dukes of Norfolk, Arundel, is a stone-walled fairytale brought to life. Even for those who aren't fans of visiting castles, a day at Arundel is a day well spent. This medieval castle and stately home erupts from the West Sussex wilderness, with all the grandeur, power and elegance that it possessed when built almost ten centuries ago.

    Miles of stunning sandy spaces

    While Sussex is best known for being home to beautiful countryside, it also boasts more than its fair share of stunning sandy spots. Brighton, the country's most popular seaside town, offers world-class eateries, an incredible nightlife and one of the friendliest and most accepting atmospheres you'll ever find - all with a sea view.

    Further along the Sussex Coast, Camber Sands provides the perfect location to spend your Summer holidays. Two miles of golden shore backed by dozens of exciting sand dunes make this East Sussex coastal resort a family-friendly adventure playground. Picnic amongst the sand dunes, comb the beach for washed-up treasures or tour the many cafes scattered in the nearby village of Camber.

    Worthing is home to a unique attraction

    One other marvellous Sussex spot that deserves mention is Worthing. Sat walking distance from Brighton, as well as being home to a beautiful promenade, miles of sandy beaches and the incredible Worthing Observation Wheel, this East Sussex city has a unique selling point.

    Worthing is the place where a vast proportion of England's World Records have been set. Worthing has hosted the most consecutive rounds of kickboxing, the longest football marathon and the heaviest fig ever grown. The world-famous fig was a whopping 295 grams - the average fig weighing in at just 8.4!

    The largest congregation of people dressed as elves also occurred in Worthing. In 2013, 1,276 people swarmed the town centre dressed as Santa's little helpers. Unfortunately, no-one from the Guinness was there to witness it, even though it shattered the old record by a full 514 elves.

    Any and all kinds of holiday home

    We want your Sussex holidays to be as perfect as possible and whatever kind of holiday cottage you're after, we're here to help. Whether you're after a magnificent manor house or a quaint and cosy fisherman's cottage, all you have to do is ask.

    Don't want to leave your four-legged friend at home? Have a look at Sussex's dog-friendly cottages. Choose from an incredible collection of luxury or extra-large holiday homes or perhaps peruse properties with a swimming pool or a decedent hot tub. If you're craving Sussex cottages with sea views, check out holiday homes on the coast or maybe beside the beach.

    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.

    • Theano - Verified booking

      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.

    • Caroline - Verified booking

      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. Caroline

    • Martin - Verified booking

      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.

    • Mrs Towler - Verified booking

      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.
