The Old Post Office

The Old Post Office is a bit of a gem.

We were down for the weekend for a 70th birthday party and the accommodation provided the perfect base. Ideally located, there are several bars, cafes and restaurants on the doorstep and we were able to take our dog on a lovely circular walk on the west beach. The property itself is very clean, well laid out and well equipped. We were lucky with the weather, but the property also benefits from a lovely, well maintained courtyard garden. We could not fault the Old Post Office and would certainly stay again when visiting friends in Littlehampton and Rustington.

Beautiful, comfortable, super clean and cosy stay.

A really great characterful flat. It contained everything we could possibly need. Lovely place and we really hope to visit again

The Old Post Office is a beautiful property - a perfect place to get away.

The accommodation is well equipped, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Bedding, towels and toiletries were good quality and we were welcome with milk, tea & coffee, cookies and croissants. We loved the sunny courtyard garden! The property is a stones throw away from the beach, has a convenience store across the road, a pub a few doors down and a walk away from the town centre

A wonderful place.

It had everything I needed to have a lovely holiday. Comfortable and spacious with a pretty, little, secure and sunny courtyard garden. It doesn't have parking but we found a space on a road nearby. I would stay again.

Stylish ground floor apartment, well presented & equipped, spotlessly clean, comfy beds and with a pretty courtyard garden.

Situated just a few minutes walk from the beach. The accommodation was as described apart from a change in the seating in the dining area. I was travelling with my mother who found the seating a bit low but otherwise we loved the apartment and would certainly recommend it to others.

Lovely apartment perfect for walks along the nice promenade

The apartment was beautiful, very well modernised and equipped.

The courtyard garden was completely secure for the dog and a sheltered suntrap during what was, unfortunately, an exceptionally windy week. The games cupboard was well stocked and we can recommend the game of “floundering” for a good laugh! The second bedroom, opening onto the garden with patio doors, was comfortable and quiet, but would be a bit cramped for two people as there was no storage and the bed was quite close to the window wall. Footsteps, but no other sounds, could be heard from the above apartment in the main room and large front bedroom. We can thoroughly recommend this apartment.

After 20 years of using dog friendly accommodation we have been lucky that most were good.

but the old post office tops the list. Excellent in every category.

We enjoyed our stay in The Old Post Office and cannot praise it more highly.

It is our first time here and we hope to come again. Every detail has been included by Sarah and Doug with care and love Littlehampton suits us very well, quiet for us older folk but attractive also to families with young children. We appreciated having a area of beach where we could walk our spaniel, The East Beach Cafe is very good, not a beef burger in sight!

Attractive apartment with all requirements for an easy & comfortable holiday.

Nice touches with milk bread & jam left for our arrival. Would recommend & will certainly book again

Great place to stay, great location!

We will be back. Thank you

Beautiful property and well laid out we had a lovely stay.

Beds were very comfortable and the outside secure area was great for our dog. Shop and excellent pub very close as is the sea front which offers a nice walk along the prom to the harbour and into town passing a cafe and chip shop.

Everything about the old post office is done to a high standard and the owners are very considerate.

It's somewhat larger than it appears in the photos. We did have a problem while we were there but it was dealt with swiftly and effectively, which is exactly what you hope for. Lack of parking could be a down side, if there was one, but we always managed to get parked somewhere on the street overnight. We had a lovely week there - helped by good weather.

We were mightily impressed by the Old Post Office.

The property was comfortable, impeccably clean and very tastefully decorated. The welcome basket of tea, coffee, bread, butter, milk and chocolate brownies was much appreciated! Our toddler especially loved the shower and fluffy towels and playing with the pieces from the well stocked games cupboard. We appreciated being able to bring our dog. Being a stones throw from the beach and park was ideal.

We had a superb stay in every aspect.

We stayed for four weeks and we can't wait to come back to Sarah's and Doug's lovely cottage. It really has been a home from home. The cottage is cozy, warm, comfortable and very well-equipped. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. The enclosed garden is a sun trap and an absolute delight. I fully recommend this cottage to all.

Wonderful welcome.

Accommodation very comfortable. Well- designed. . Very tasteful. Objects of quality in flat: good bedding, crockery, saucepans, furniture etc. Warm friendly owners. Highly recommended.

Very delightful home from home right by the seaside.

Cosy and warm, lovely welcome goodies on arrival- thank you! The property was spotless, really beautifully styled and had everything we needed for a relaxed break away, we extended our stay here which was wonderful. Totally recommend this gorgeous place, great hosts, so accommodating and it’s a perfect location for Chichester and Arundel. Highly recommend. Thank you!

Lovely flat, great location - just 5 minute walk to the beach.

Beds were very comfortable. We did some cooking and the decent pans and enough crockery were much appreciated. Thank you for the lovely welcome pack.

The Old Post Office will stay beautiful in my memory.

The kitchen was a traveler's dream. Everything about this house was carefully thought out. Sarah and Doug welcomed us with a basket full of goodies and a sweet handwritten card. The pack of Ethiopian coffee was a pleasant twist! We arrived here with lots of deadline and couldn't make time to do a quick food shopping. Their goodies carried us into the next day. I love the garden but sadly the weather couldn't let us use it. I will be coming back hopefully in the summer to enjoy the garden. Thank you for making our stay pleasurable.

We had a wonderful week and then stayed for a further 4 days!

My other review is more detailed.

Property the nicest cottage that we've stayed in.

So well equipped and comfortable. The bed was wonderfully comfortable too. There was also a very generous welcome pack, (prosecco, my one weakness!) We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and this cottage has been saved to favourites. The only slight problem, and nothing to do with the accommodation itself, was the difficulty in finding a parking space nearby. Sometimes we were lucky, but it was only a minor inconvenience.

What a little gem of a place!

This property is finished to the highest standard, spotlessly clean, yet really homely. The bed was super comfortable, and the rooms spacious with oodles of character. Outside space was also cottage style, with plenty of space for our little dog to snuffle and explore, and for us to sit. Lovely little ‘touches’ by the hosts, such as a welcome hamper, body washes and all necessary equipment for the stay. And the towels. Softest fluffiest ever!!

Our hosts, Sarah and Doug, were really helpful and welcoming.

The welcome pack was above and beyond and really did make us feel at home. Everything was beautifully set up, good kitchen, lovely garden which we got a chance to sit in and dog friendly pub along the road!

We had a wonderful time during our stay at The Old Post Office.

The property itself has been finished to the highest standard and very tastefully done. It was also very comfortable and cozy. The welcome hamper was the most generous I have ever received from a host, in all the years I have been using Sykes for our getaways! We were very fortunate with the weather during out vist and this meant we could relax and enjoy the gorgeous courtyard garden. The hosts, Sarah and Doug were incredible helpful and accessible, as they a few doors down from the Old Post Office. They had excellent local knowledge and were able to help with our enquiries. Thank you both for our wonderful stay and we look forward to seeing you both soon. Best wishes Jo, Paul and Gracie-dog xx

The Old Post Office at Littlehampton was a delightful holiday home.

The accommodation eas spacious, spotless and very well equipped, including a generous welcome hamper. The pretty garden was safe for our dog, and one of the two bedrooms had patio doors leading into the garden. The owners, Sarah and Doug live a few doors sway and were available for friendly advice if needed.Would definitely recommend.

Beautifully decorated apartment in a great location - would definitely return

Lovely garden flat, comfortable and well-equipped.

Thoughtful touches throughout from the 'Welcome' basket to the nice bathroom toiletries. We have relatives in the area, would definitely book again and wholeheartedly recommend the property.
