Property Description
🏡 The Cottage
Built in 1885, Flint Cottage blends period character with modern comforts. Just three minutes’ walk from Littlehampton’s sandy, award-winning beach, it’s a welcoming base for families, friends, or business travellers.
🌊 Location
Littlehampton is one of the sunniest seaside towns in the UK. The beach stretches half a kilometre at low tide, and the town centre is a five-minute walk from shops and restaurants. The South Downs National Park is a short drive away, offering countryside walks and the chance to spot ponies.
🛏 Bedrooms
The cottage sleeps up to five across two rooms. The master has a double bed, ensuite shower, desk, and blackout curtains. The second bedroom has a bunk bed with a double below and single above, plus a desk and blackout curtains.
🛋 Living Space
The lounge has two sofas (one converts to a double bed), blackout curtains, a large OLED TV with Google TV, PlayStation, and board games. Fast fibre Wi-Fi runs throughout the house.
🍽 Kitchen & Dining
The spacious kitchen is fully equipped with an oven, hob, microwave, fridge-freezer, dishwasher, cookware, and utensils. There’s also a washing machine for longer stays. A pull-out dining table with chairs for five makes it easy for families and friends to eat together. Complimentary tea, coffee, cereal, and milk are provided for your first breakfast.
🌸 Courtyard Garden
Outside, enjoy Tess’s handmade mosaic table among her favourite plants. A sunny spot for morning coffee, evening drinks, or a barbecue.
🚉 Getting Around
Littlehampton station (13 mins’ walk) has direct trains to Brighton, Chichester, and London. Local taxis are easy to book, and Arrow Taxis has a handy app.
⚠️ Things to Note
🚶 Steep Stairs
The cottage dates back to 1885, and the stairs are steeper than in modern houses. This may not suit anyone with mobility issues.
🚿 Bathrooms
There is one ensuite shower room in the master bedroom and a small WC downstairs. Groups will need to be comfortable sharing.
🚗 Parking
Free on-street parking is usually available nearby. On very busy days such as bank holidays, we’ll try to move one of our cars so you can take our spot.

We had a wonderful stay at flint cottage. It was exceptionally clean and the owners have gone above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The property is beautifully designed. The beds were really comfy. We were sent a digital welcome pack before we arrived which was really helpful. Would highly recommend.

Lovely place
The cottage is really cozy! The kitchen is big and has everything you need and the owners had put some drinks in the fridge, really nice!The bedrooms were really nicely decorated. The only thing we think can be improved are the beds. Too small for our taste and the mattrasses could be a bit more comfy.We had a lovely stay!

Lovely property in Littlehampton
The cottage did not disappoint. As well as friendly communications from the owners there was a generous amount of basics and goodies in the kitchen which were much appreciated. Everything had been clearly explained including the steep stair case so there were no difficult surprises. We were very comfortable and it was ideal for our early Christmas together. Having a fully equipped kitchen made all the cooking easy . We also enjoyed a lovely walk on the nearby beach. Lovely location.The only thing I missed was a personal contact with the owners which would have been nice, but as doctors I expect they are very busy and may work some distance away so understand not very practical for them. Thank you both for welcoming card and a very enjoyable stay in your lovely and thoughtfully decorated and well equipped cottage.

Super Cottage
Small but perfectly formed! A lovely cottage perfect for our stay and visit to Goodwood. Close to the beach and other great places to visit.
Probably the best equipped kitchen I have ever come across - super sharp knives were a revelation!!
The little touches were much appreciated from the welcome card and chocolate to the milk, bread and other bits left for us to enjoy.
Communication with the hosts was great and we would definitely stay again.

Lovely place to stay for Goodwood races
It had virturally everything we needed for making meals in the evening, including a full size refrigerator/freezer, gas stove, oven etc. It also had a combination washer/dryer which was much appreciated by us. There was enough room for all 5 of us to eat with a little rearranging of the kitchen area. The beds were very comfy. The bathroom upstairs is in the master bedroom area, not between the two bedrooms but we manage that as there is another bathroom downstairs.
