DOWNLAND COTTAGE is a modern two bedroom detached bungalow situated in a cul-de-sac of 3 properties. Nestling in the hills of East Dean it offers easy access to some lovely rural downland paths and also is within walking distance of village shops, a restaurant and local pub serving great food. There is a farmers market on Wednesday. East Dean is located approximately 5 miles from Eastbourne and 20 miles from Brighton. Seaford and Newhaven are close by.
The bungalow is surrounded by gardens and there is a large driveway with parking for 3 cars. It has the attraction of a south west facing garden with decking area for those alfresco evenings, a summer house and also the added advantage of conservatory with comfortable seating. From the front and rear gardens there are lovely views of the surrounding downland and distant views of the sea at Birling Gap. The spacious living room has colour TV (with 20 cable channels), DVD player, Video player and FM radio/CD player.

“Superb Location” We have stayed twice at this accomodation and on both occasions we were not let down. In 2011 we stayed here during August for two weeks, which covered Airbourne in Eastbourne. The accomodation is superb. Plenty of room for two adults and three children to spread. The bedrooms are lovely and the beds were very cosy at night. The addition of the side extension has created the extra room with the second freeview TV and sofa bed. WI-fi access was excellent. The bathroom facilities are superb; an excellent roll-top bath and separate power-shower cubicle. Also the 2nd toilet was very handy. The kitchen is very well equipped and the conservatory and garden saw plenty of use. There is a superb bus service from East Dean which runs between Brighton and Eastbourne. The buses literally run every 15 minutes and on Sundays there is a slight detour to take in Beachy Head. The location: East Dean is such a lovely location. Plenty of walks from here, especially if you are adventurous and fancy walking along the South Down cliffs. Seaford is only a few minutes away and has a lovely quiet pebble beach. Eastbourne is also only minutes away and is a delightful seaside location, full of plenty of things for people of all ages to enjoy. Brighton is only half an hour away, too. We will stay here again and I thoroughly recommend this accomodation.
