I booked this apartment for my girlfriend and I along with another couple (friends) to stay over the airbourne weekend. First of all, the owners were very accommodating and friendly as we asked to drop our stuff off early due to timing issues and were only too happy to help. The apartment itself is really clean, tidy and modern and has all you would ever need for a break. The apartment is in a beautiful location overlooking the beach and sea, It's so nice and relaxing to hear the sea from the main bedroom at night, sends you to sleep in minutes especially as the bed is so comfy! Then to get up on a nice morning and overlook the sea and have breakfast on the balcony is great, it's not often you can do that in this country! If you want a nice quiet relaxing break then i couldn't recommend it more and is only 15-20mins away from eastbourne if you want abit more.

Driftwood apartment was exactly like the photos on the website - but the reality of being there made it even more beautiful with the sea stretched out before us. Everything was excellent about this apartment - from the ease of booking it, to the consistently pleasant exchanges with the owners (and parents) to the elegant loveliness of the rooms and the welcome flowers, wine and card. Four of us were staying here as we were going for an event and Driftwood was very convenient place to stay. But it was much more than that and staying at Driftwood made for an extremely memorable stay in this area.
Before embarking on a holiday in Europe and the UK i avidly read Trip Advisor Reviews but took little note about relationships with owners. After my experience here (and other experiences) I realise how much the owners response can colour the whole stay.

Thank you to all for a most lovely time at Driftwood.

While I was trying to think of the title for this review I felt like saying Ditto, since most of titles seemed to say similar things essentially indicating it is a beautiful house in a great location, and it is that and so much more. The ease of renting this as an American had me scared and I probably bugged Mike and Simone a little too much prior to leaving for our (as UK people call it) holiday. It was as easy as advertised, I simply booked, contacted their mother Christine who met us at the cottage and gave us explanation of what was needed to know, and we were checked in, assured if we needed anything we could contact her (we didn't need to but I am sure if we had needed anything she would have bent over backwards to help). Check out was even easier.
Of course with such glowing reviews I had expectations, but this place exceeded my expectations. Shopping is easy walking distance, beach right in front of house, easy drive to parking and walk to Seven Sisters, this was a place to go for more than the 2 days we had allotted for our trip. Checking out was just as easy.
I hesitate to mention next item since I can't say they do it for everybody, but they did it for us so I have to mention it (even if we were special :-) ), they had a bottle of wine waiting for us, a little milk in fridge, condiments already onsite. It may seem like a simple thing, but it was very much appreciated. In this economic climate we are all looking for good value for our dollar, pound, euro, or whatever currency we have, this is an extremely good value for the price.
