Apt 11, Waters Edge
About the home
The apartment is on the 3rd floor of an attractive block built in 2000 on the south side of the River Adur which links into Shoreham Harbour. Occasional coastal vessels visit the working quay opposite, and local sailing and other pleasure craft or those visiting from other UK or European ports, pass up and down the river below, adding constant interest to the vista.
The apartment has long-distance views over Shoreham to the South Downs and, to the south, the sea.
Within a few minutes walk of the apartment there are good local shops, cafes, a bakery and the beach - which is a designated nature reserve. About 15 minutes walk away via the pedestrian bridge over the River Adur, Shoreham town has excellent shops, pubs and a wide selection of restaurants. Shoreham railway station (about 15 minutes walk) provides frequent services along the south coast to Southampton, Brighton and beyond, with direct access to Gatwick and London Victoria.
Amongst the attractions within easy access are Arundel Castle, Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust, Parham House, Wakehurst Place (Kew & NT), Sheffield Park, (NT), Borde Hill Gardens, Leonardslee Gardens, Petworth Park (NT), the Brighton Royal Pavilion, and glorious walks over the South Downs National Park and the beautiful Sussex coast. Shoreham airport is about 2 miles from the apartment, where short leisure or longer flights are available.

Photos
The South East England / Sussex region


The South East of England in general, and Sussex in particular are extremely attractive, with areas of glorious countryside, masses of mature trees, rolling Downs and some of the prettiest towns and villages in the UK.
The South Downs has recently become a National Park and a whole section of this can be seen, rising above Shoreham, from the apartment.
The Shoreham-by-Sea area
We purchased the apartment for our own use (and still use it regularly) because we love the area so much. Wonderful walks can be enjoyed along the beach, up the river, or over the Downs directly from the apartment, and with short journeys by train or car you can be savouring the buzz of Brighton or the delights of Arundel or Chichester.
Sussex is littered with magnificent Houses and Gardens and attractions open to the public including Arundel Castle, Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust, Parham House, Wakehurst Place (Kew & NT), Sheffield Park, (NT), Borde Hill Gardens, Leonardslee Gardens and Petworth Park (NT). Less than 15 minutes away from Shoreham station, Brighton has the Royal Pavilion, the fascinating North Laine area, the 'traditional' Lanes and a plethora of other attractions.
Shoreham has a fascinating history having been a major port and the centre of the British film industry in its time. There is a very active community with several festivals taking place during the summer months. Shoreham Airport offers leisure flights and the area is a haven for sailing and kite surfing.

We travelled from the south of ireland to the uk in august and had a wonderful holiday from our base at apt. 11 shoreham by sea, waters edge. We had our own parking space. All basics, milk, tea, coffee, sugar were provided on arrival plus a nice bottle of wine and the owner waiting to welcome us when we arrived. There is an excellent train service from shoreham and we walked to the train in 15mins which meant we did not need to use the car. We loved the apartment. Everything worked properly, tv's showers, kettles, fridge, hot water, broadband etc. which made our stay very uncomplicated and enjoyable. The apartment is up three flights so therefore not accessible to everyone. |

I have been very impressed with the property and all the equipment available for family holiday. From the moment we walked in we felt welcome as if we simply walked from home to another home of ours but on the seaside. I am stickler for cleanliness and practicality of the accommodation for a family with younger children (5 & 8) and on all counts this did not disappoint. The apartment is extremely well appointed with access to the beach and exploration of the local area. It surprised me how light the apartment is and you cannot escape the feeling you are on holiday as you see on both sides access to the sea. Unfortunately I had to work a couple of days on our holiday but the wi-fi connection was excellent and that allowed me to cover my workload without any problems. We simply had a great holiday and we have booked the apartment again for 2012. |

I have stayed at water's Edge 4 or 5 times over the past year, while studying for my air transport pilots licence. You just cant beat the place! When you arrive, the reserved parking space is right opposite the front door. The bedrooms, nice size, plenty of storage space for cases. The main bedroom has an en-suite, there's digital TV, double wardrobe. The smaller bedroom has twin beds lots of storage, both have quality bedding and soft fluffy towels - very welcoming. The bathroom is light and airy, with a good shower... not a measly top floor low water pressure trickle, this is an invigorating shower that gets you going in the morning. The kitchen has everything you need: full on cooking facilities - if you're up for it, or microwave & dishwasher if you're not; theres even a washer/dryer. The supply of spare batteries, was a nice touch. In the lounge/dining area is a huge collection of brochures and leaflets on local and not so local attractions. Keeping in touch is taken care of, thanks to a fantastic cable broadband connection, as well as a phone. By far the biggest asset of this place are the dual aspect views. Look to the south and you're looking out over the sea, where the kite surfers wing it in the sea breeze. Turn your head and look to the north and you see the Sussex downs in all their lush green beauty, unless they are snow covered and glistening. Its magical! |
Guestbook for Apt 11, Waters Edge
Just a quick note to let you know that your flat in Shoreham was perfect for us. We found it very clean, well furnished/equipped and conveniently located. We have not experienced a single problem while staying there. It has most certainly been our best holiday rental in Britain so far !
The Boruszak Family - France
We had a great holiday and thoroughly enjoyed staying at your apartment. It's in a great location and had everything we wanted - we can't think of one thing we thought was lacking or could be improved upon.
The Wilding family - Dubai
A lovely apartment and location with everything we needed. A pleasure to find such wonderful accommodation on Shoreham Beach with comfortable beds.
Southee family, Shropshire
A lovely, clean flat in an excellent location for getting out and about. Shoreham Beach was lovely as it was so refreshing to be somewhere mid-August without being surrounded by loads of people.
Jessica & Simon Cook, Gloucestershire
A warm and comfortable flat, attractively furnished - the best holiday accommodation we've stayed in in the UK. Loved the activity on the river.
Ray Collins & Josephine Camus, Surrey
Lovely accommodation, well-placed for beach, town & station - nice & warm too over a particularly wintry weekend!
