About this property

Beach Front Holiday Home on private road with views out to sea. 100+ 5* Reviews

Sea Vale has been in our family since my wife was a child. Initially it was only for our own use but since deciding to make it available for others to use we have totally renovated the house, bringing it flying into the 21st Century.

The house is right on the beach with lovely sea views and has a beautiful open plan living style on the ground floor flowing onto a wooden deck with the garden beyond which faces South. There are four double bedrooms. Every modern convenience has been thought of including under-floor heating throughout the ground floor. The decor is strictly "seaside" with plenty of little touches that leave you in no doubt that you are living on the beach.

Walk out of the garden gate onto Elmer Beach which has to be one of the quietest & most private beaches on the South coast. Elmer Beach Estate is privately owned with no public access to the beach (although some local people do walk through the estate). During peak seasons and bank holidays there is a gate at the end of the road to limit vehicle access to residents.

Lots of pubs and restaurants within walking distance and further afield too.

Perfect for family gatherings

Super house for a family gathering with easy parking for 4 cars in driveway. So close to the beach you can hear the waves. Lovely and clean and very comfortable. Secure for the dogs to run around the garden and minutes to the beach with sand at low tide. Walk to Lobster Pot for delicious coffee. Communication with Judith and Nick was excellent. The balcony space at first floor was something special.

Absolutely lovely property by the sea

Our family of 8 and the dogs, had a delightful stay at this lovely seaside home. The property was clean throughout and has a very well stocked kitchen. The sun room with views of the sea was amazing. Plenty of room for everyone to relax and unwind. Having the beach just a few steps away from the garden was fantastic. The garden was beautiful and very secure for the dogs. Even my tiny dog couldnt escape! Would highly recommend and I hope we can stay again sometime. Thanks

We loved it, what a beautiful house, very clean and well equipped. Great location central to everything.We were a party of 4 couples and by the description we were led to believe there was 4 bathrooms with showers but there was only 3 showers and we had to share with another couple which was very awkward.

Location excellent just on the beach where everybody went and found shells, stones even an ammonite. So we went home with a small memento.House was amazing with everything catered for, the communication was faultless so there was no delay in getting in or knowing where things were.Overall a very successful four nights for everybody and I think the owners have got it right.

About the host

Hosted by Nick & Judith Lahey-Bean

Host profile image
My wife and I live near Guildford (our children have flown the nest and are producing grandchildren). I am a Chartered Surveyor so my professional background has always been in property and between us we manage a varied property portfolio but this is our own holiday house.

Why they chose this property

Sea Vale has been in my wife's family since she was a child. She has happy memories of childhood holidays in Elmer and we, in turn, have holidayed for many years at Sea Vale with our own children.

The beach is unbelievably quiet and unspoiled because access is through a private estate. This is a friendly community and Elmer is close to almost every facility that you could think of.

In 2012 we bit the bullet and carried out massive renovations and alterations to transform the house into a 21st Century holiday home that we are proud of. In 2015/2016 we carried out another very exciting project which added a dramatically attractive sun room and balcony at first floor level with full central heating and views out to the beach, the main bedroom has a new ensuite shower room and there's a small study facing out to the garden off the sitting room with high speed broadband. The two upstairs bedrooms have double beds and the two ground floor bedrooms have twin beds which can be put together to make doubles if you want. Our children and grandchildren now use the house often but there are plenty of times when it would be empty if we didn't make it available for others to use as well.

What makes this property unique

There are lovely walks along the beach heading either East or West. Try walking East to Climping for a pub lunch or walk West to the Lobster Pot on the beach in Felpham for brunch etc.

From the first floor sun room you can while away the hours gazing at the horizon - time evaporates up here (as does the wine in your glass!). You can enjoy the sunshine through open bi-fold doors up here even in the winter.

East Beach Cafe at Littlehampton is a very popular restaurant serving great beachside food and we have one of the best Indian restaurants in the next village who will deliver to the house.

The village post office includes a small supermarket where you'll find almost everything you could want but there is also a One Stop supermarket slightly further down the road or a full scale Sainsbury's Superstore near Littlehampton.
