Perfect for exploring both Brighton and the local village, this lovely spot even welcomes your furry friend, making it a wonderful escape for you and your companion. The Space: Welcome to Blue Bolthole, a cozy, charming cottage set in the beautiful coastal village of Rottingdean, Sussex, close to the beach and perfect for a relaxing getaway. The spacious living room invites you to unwind on the comfy sofa in front of the Smart TV.

Located in the picturesque village of Rottingdean, this cottage offers peace and quiet near the sea, yet Brighton’s vibrant attractions are just a short trip away by bus or car. Guest Access: Guest have access to the entire property during their stay! Acces details will be sent prior to your arrival. Quiet hours at this property are from 9pm to 8am in consideration of neighbours. Please note that whilst the bed is in a seperate room, there is no door to this space. The Neighborhood: Located just 4 miles east of Brighton, the seaside village of Rottingdean is a beautiful village destination surrounded by the South Downs National Park and the sea side. Just a few minutes walk from the cottage you'll find the beautiful pebbled Rottingdean Beach which offers invigorating Undercliff walks plus stunning sea views from Molly’s Cafe. The perfect all year round destination without the crowds of busier locations! Rottingdean’s seafront and historic high street are home to a wide selection of restaurants, cafes and takeaways, to suit every mood and taste, from sun-up, to sun-down, (such as the lovely welcoming Sea Spray Cafe!) With a number of pubs to choose from, including Rottingdean’s oldest, Ye Olde Black Horse which dates back to 1513 and The White Horse, with its unrivalled location and sea views, there really is no reason to venture further. Though with Brighton less than 15 minutes on the regular ‘coaster’ bus service or an even quicker drive along the coastal road, you may be tempted. You can easily stop off at Brighton Marina en route too! Rottingdean is living history, from its Norman church, numerous artistic connections, including Rudyard Kipling's old home and adjacent walled gardens, in addition to The Grange, which is the village museum and art gallery. Beacon Hill nature reserve and its iconic windmill, is a short stroll from the house, giving direct access to the South Downs National Park and the most beautiful countryside walks, in every direction. With so much to do, see and enjoy, Rottingdean is the perfect base to visit Brighton and other destinations further afield.
