About this property

Beautiful Harbors Listed Coastguard Cottage, Snowhill, Westwittering

Beautiful Grade 2 listed cottage 200 metres from the sheltered tidal Snowhill Creek at the entrance of Chichester Harbour. With the Sailing Club opposite, and a short walk to the to the famous West Wittering beach, Windsurfing Club, bird reserves and the National Trust sand dunes of East Head.

The cottage is part of a row of former Coastguard Cottages, built around 1833, with small garden to the front and a small yard to the rear. Three bedrooms comprised of double bed, two singles and smaller ground floor bedroom with bunk bed. Cottage is small and compact and perfectly formed! It is cozier than the photos indicate!

Temporary sailing club membership might be available and would require contacting the Sailing Club secretary via their web site. In addition, we have contacts with many of the local sailing instructors. Sailing is possible two to three hours either side of high tide.

Check-out instructions

The host requires you to complete the following before checking out:
Leave the property as you found it
Do not leave the dishwasher full. If it is not finished we have to stop it, remove dishes and wash up for next guests. We will charge for extra work.
Rubbish into bins at Nore House, the end Cottage
Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host.
Parking can be tight but would request that access to the very end house is not blocked. We would recommend that only one car is used
Please put rubbish into the bind at the front of Nore House Garage / Front Gate. Nore House is the first cottage in the Terrace and has its own drive
Please do NOT leave dogs alone. Barking (as neighbours come and go) is completely unacceptable and anti-social and I will be immediately informed.
