Great Location Near the Beach

This is a wonderful property for a family with children who want to be close to the beach. Groceries, restaurants/pubs and the beach are all super convenient. The house already had lots of toys/games/books for the kids so that was really great. A fenced in garden also provided a great place for the children to play.

A lovely spacious home everything we needed was there very clean and comfortable perfect for holiday

Arrived to a beautiful home six adults one child and a baby felt at home straight away perfect for holiday or just for taking a break we had everything we needed beds were very comfortable and colour schemes were lovely. Louise the owner had left us a Christmas Tree and we were all excited because it was a real one! Decorating with my daughter and grandaughter was perfect such a lovely Christmas morning. We hope to return again perhaps in the summer. Thankyou Louise.

Perfect place to unwind and relax

The cottage is huge and the living/dining/kitchen area is like the finished properties in Grand Designs. However, regardless of this space, the tasteful furnishing gives the cottage a cosy, welcoming feel. The beds are comfortable, with lovely soft sheets. The showers are fast and hot. The house is clean and has all the crockery, cutlery and white goods that you could need. The Tides would be a great place for a large group of friends or a family get together. The weather was grim when I was there and after a long walk on the beach it was lovely to come "home" to the warm, cosy and very glamorous Tides.

Lovely beach cottage.

Super location. Short 2 minute walk the the beach and a few minutes drive to Rye Golf Club. The house was well equipped and maintained with comfy beds and modern appliances. Lots of communal space to enjoy company and a lovely conservatory which even in mid December was warm. Highly recommended.

Great location for the beach and nearby eateries like The Owl which was lovely. Short drive in to Rye for days out. Clean, modern and bright, well equipped kitchen and comfortable bedrooms. Plenty of bathrooms and sweet litte garden. We had a lovely stay!

Great Sea Side property

Superb property. Very well equipped and great sea-side vibe. Great downstairs space and all bedrooms a good size. Worth noting that two bedrooms are downstairs and two upstairs which worked well for our group. Plenty of DVDs and games and children's toys for time inside. Nearby shops and cafes for everyday needs. Great to be able to walk to the beach and avoid car park costs. Room for two cars outside the property.

Wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay over the long Bank Holiday weekend and I'd highly recommend to others visiting in a large family or group of friends. The house is very well furnished and supplied with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable and convenient stay. It's superbly located within a couple of minutes walk from the beach and we loved the garden space for outside breakfast and bbq. Thank you so much and hopefully visit again in the future.

Excellent accommodation close to the beach

This home was just perfect for our needs to spend time with our grandchildren and our daughter, just a few minutes walk from the Sandy dunes and beaches of Camber. The accommodation was exactly as described with a few extras home comforts that’s weren’t expected and the owner was very efficient at dealing with our bookings and a couple of queries before and after check in. We look forward to hopefully returning to this seasoned retreat. So much to do in the area too the grandchildren enjoyed the Romney hythe dymchurch railway, the funfair at dymchurch with very little mid week queues port lympne reserve and Hastings, but especially the beach and sea during the warm days we were lucky to enjoy. Simply Italian in Rye was very welcoming to families with young children.

Lovely property and location

Spent a week camber with husband and 1 year old. Lovely big property, everything and more that we needed for a week stay. Right by the beach (2min walk) perfect with a baby... for popping back for lunch/ naps or forgetting the bucket and spade! Also had a great garden for a chilled evening. Shops and takeaways all available if you don’t want to cook. Small drive into Rye for more restaurants / shops or nice day out. Great place for a family / couple holiday!

Great place near the beach

Perfect place to stay for a long weekend (or longer!) - we were two families with 5 kids of varying ages and there was plenty of space for all of us. Great enclosed garden, and literally a couple of minutes’ walk from the beach, which makes it easier when you forget your bucket and spade and have to go back for it! The owners were really helpful ahead of our stay and gave us all the information we needed. Beach towels are a nice touch, and a good choice of books and games to keep everyone busy too!

About the host

Hosted by Mrs L Simmonds

Host profile image
We are young professionals based in London and looking to improve our quality of life by spending time at the seaside during weekends. We love being in the house with family and friends.

Why they chose this property

We have holidayed in Camber many times. The locals are friendly, the beach is wonderful and it is close to home! There are some great restaurants and we love food!

The pace is slow, it's quiet and we find it a very tranquil place to be.

The best kept secret of the area is the fact that the weather is fantastic in Autumn and Spring!

The cottage is moments from the beach, close enough to walk to bars/pubs/restaurants and easy to find..... It is located on an unmade road off the main strip and did I mention, moments from the beach!

What makes this property unique

When we bought the house it was a two bedroom bungalow which was falling apart. We fell in love with it and its location and with some vision we have renovated it into a 4 bedroom cottage. For us its all about being with family and friends making wonderful memories. We wanted to provide warm, comfy, modern open pan living to ensure visitors have simply an unforgettable time.

Camber is in its own time warp! Although it is being dragged into the current era! There is a mix of old traditional property and new and improved. The pubs and restaurants are comfy and welcoming. Absolutely fantastic!

Rye is just outside of Camber and it is a magical place, full of cobbled streets, eateries, pubs (with roaring fires) and shops! All independent shops of course no multiples, there is lots to do in the surrounding areas too.
