Cliffe Cottage

A lovely cosy cottage, a few steps away from everything Lewes has to offer.

Plus a great dog walk up to the golf course with panoramic views across the Downs. We really appreciated all of the small touches, and the house was beautifully decorated. A great place to spend a few days.

We had a very comfortable stay in Cliffe Cottage.

Everything was well organised and clean. Towels were fluffy and toiletries provided were great. We enjoyed the location, close to good independent shops. The town is interesting and attractive and and a good centre with bus and train connections. We didn’t bring a car. We would definitely stay in Cliffe Cottage again.

Such a delightful little cottage.

The owners provide such special touches — lovely thick towels, fresh flowers, new shower caps and lovely bath products. The list goes on. We were so well taken care of there and the town of Lewes and surrounding area provides such wonderful cultural exploration. One of the nicest rentals we have stayed at.

Lovely house.

Thanks.

Lovely house on the outskirts of Lewes within easy walking distance to station and all restaurants.

Accommodation was a little smaller than anticipated but with just 2 of us it was fine. Stairs were a little narrow and the courtyard was small.

Lovely property in great small town .

Clean cosy and compact but very well designed . Plenty of walks from the front door with lots of places of interest nearby . Limited free parking on occasions , but paid parking nearby . Hope to return , Many thanks

Fabulous cottage with everything we needed provided and lots of local information to make our stay stress free and easy.

We had such a nice time and would definitely come back again.

An excellent and well-equipped property that is well positioned for the town centre and local travel.

The only thing to be aware of is that the staircase is quite narrow and might be difficult for someone with any mobility issues. But overall it was superb...

Well situated with just a short walk into town, and yet still quiet even on Halloween .

Thoughtfully designed and decorated, lovely bed linen, fresh flowers and the all important fresh milk

Lovely cottage to spend some quality time with old friends.

Great location to allow both browsing of the shops in Lewes and some lovely nearby coastal walks. Well equipped kitchen.

This is a lovely cottage .

Beautifully decorated, extremely comfortable and with all amenities you might need. Small back yard but big enough to seat you if you like an alfresco breakfast. This was our second visit and we will definitely be booking a third. Brilliantly situated for exploring the South Downs and surrounding area. Lewes is a great town with fabulous independent shops, a cinema and some excellent places to eat.

Wonderful week in this beautifully situated cottage, just a short walk up to the Downs but so convenient for the town too.

Fresh flowers, comfy beds and tasteful decor were all appreciated. We managed fine without a car and hope to return.

A truly lovely place from which to explore the South Downs.

Lewes is a v pretty town that has everything you need for an easy and convenient stay. The cottage is very well located near the town and it is also very pleasant to return to at the end of each day.

We had a wonderful stay at Cliffe Cottage, the cottage is amazing, comfy, and super clean, not to mention the complimentary prosecco and fresh flowers on arrival.

Located in Lewes town centre we had easy access to everywhere we visited, the weather was beautiful. Would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic cottage, great location couldnt ask for more

Conveniently-placed cottage with comfortable bed, spacious bathroom and well-equipped kitchen.

Parking a bit of an issue.

Had a very enjoyable holiday lovely cottage perfect place for us to stay will be returning soon.

We had a lovely stay at Cliffe Cottage last week.

The cottage is a little smaller than we normally stay in but for 2 people it was perfectly fine and equipped with everything that you could reasonably need. The many attractions of Lewes are just around the corner. It made a great base for walking on the South Downs and a visit to Brighton by train. The owner dealt with one small issue we highlighted extremely efficiently. It would be good to stay again in future.

The cottage is comfortable, clean, well-equipped and the listing information was accurate.

I'd stay again.

The house was furnished in a lovely style and very well equipped.

It was warm and comfortable and in a great location for the shops and pubs. The owners left us delicious welcome gifts, too. All good!

Really lovely accommodation Very well equipped Warm and cosy Comfy beds and sofa On the small side but fine if there’s only 2 of you Really centrally located The bathroom door needs urgent attention as you could easily be trapped in or out due to the mechanism on the lock Really wish Sykes made owners specify the type of bedding or gave you somewhere to request no feathers!

The lack of dedicated parking was a bit of an issue and would put me off returning but everything you need is in walking distance. We had a lovely time here and I would recommend it.

Gorgeous cottage, with beautiful furnishings and artwork.

The distance to the town centre was excellent. It's also very convenient for the best chip shop we've ever been to! The interior design of the cottage was lovely. It was also great to have access to a dishwasher and washing machine. The welcome pack was also a nice touch. Communication we had with the owners was great and they were very accommodating. Only issue was the bathroom door had a tendency to stick. We also struggled with the oven, but that may have been us. Overall, a fantastic stay and we would definitely stay again.

Absolutely exquisite cottage in a brilliant location.

We loved our stay here.

Perfect location, convenient for Lewes town, Glyndebourne, and a centre for exploring Sussex.

Charming original features, attractive decor and accessories. A refreshing cool haven on a hot day. Useful terrace. The standard double bed was a little too snug for two so we used the single as the second bed, and slept very well.

Lovely location to enjoy Lewes.

Minutes away from pubs, restaurants and shops etc. No trouble with parking. Everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Loved the fresh flowers, biscuits and wine!

This is really great cottage , with all the amenities you need, beautifully decorated , with comfortable lounge, good kitchen-diner nice ,comfy bed and great over-bath shower.

Lovely little back yard with table and chairs, perfect for an early morning cup of tea or late night glass of wine. It is centrally situated in the beautiful South Downs and is very close to Charleston House and perfect for exploring the coast and countryside of East Sussex. Set in Lewes which is a great town , full of charm and interesting places, loads of independant shops and plenty of very good places to eat. We are definitely planning to make a return visit.

Ideal cottage in historic part of Lewes which made for a perfect week , relaxing with my daughter .

.No noise from the street ( a cul-de-sac ) and the main bedroom and lounge face away from the road . Very close to shops and cafes . We came by train and used both train and bus to get around, including the little shuttle bus to Charleston as well as walking along the river from the house .

Lovely cottage in a very convenient location, quiet, comfortable and stylish.

Lewes is a fine town with many excellent places to eat and drink and also has very good public transport links (bus & train) to nearby places of business interest.

Lovely stay.

A cosy 2-bed that was perfect for a couple, or would suit a family with a small child. Perfectly located to explore Lewes, in a quiet street within walking distance of the main shops and restaurants. The log burner kept the lounge warm on winter evenings! We had a lovely time.

What a lovely cottage!

It was such a lovely touch to find milk, biscuits and a dog chew on our arrival. It was a really cosy cottage and we quickly felt at home there. It was thoughtfully decorated and arranged, and had everything we could possibly need. It was a great base from which to explore, and made our stay a really enjoyable one!

Clean and well presented.

Beautifully located right round the corner to Lewes precinct, with loads of restaurants, unique shops and wonderful open spaces for dog walks. Brilliant. Easy to get to Brighton.

Although this cottage is small it has been carefully and thoughtfully updated.

The decor is modern with colourful touches and the kitchen has everything you need.Although it took me a while to work out how to activate the hob. the garden has a table and chairs and it catches the afternoon sun.we slept well as the bed is comfortable and it is quiet ,yet amazingly central to Lewis town centre.The only improvement I could suggest would be a handle to steady yourself getting out of the shower.

We had a great holiday.

The weather was great for October beautiful place to come back again.

We had a lovely stay at Cliffe Cottage.

It's a beautiful Victorian cottage. It had everything we required. Lewes is a nice place to explore, especially the antique shops. I think we visited all of them! Thanks for the milk and wine, much appreciated. Loved the flowers some of which I grow in my own garden.

Very beautifull and lovely cottage, best location, you can do everything by foot, absolutely recommended

This cottage was simply beautiful.

Lovely little touches of flowers in each room when we arrived. Everything well maintained and spotless.

We had a lovely week in the cottage within 8 mins walking into town.

We have always loved Lewes so thought a holiday would be good and it was. Lovely cafes and food to chill out. Plus Deliveroo there so very handy for midweek groceries to be delivered! The decor was beautiful and modern. 100% would recommend this cottage to stay.

Delightful small property in attractive street.

Comfortable and very clean with welcoming touches from owners. Excellent location for exploring Lewes, surrounding countryside and further afield. Perfect base for us to visit family and attend events in Brighton.

Excellent all round plus perfect location

Overall a lovely house and we had a very enjoyable stay.

Excellent location, quiet but easy to walk to the town centre, shops, and station. The colour scheme is a bit surprising, makes it feel smaller and quite dark. We used both bedrooms, the window in the front bedroom needs sorting out, it was impossible to close it so there was a howling gale in the gap between sashes, we jammed a towel in it to try and seal this. This room would be improved a great deal by fettling the window and maybe a secondary glazing panel to keep it warmer and cut out some street noise. Kitchen gets cold, a curtain behind the front door would cut out the draught. The coat rack in the kitchen is coming off the wall, needs fixing. Everything else works well although it would be nice to have the heating come on earlier, maybe seven rather than eight a.m.

We have been wanting to visit Lewes for several years (rather than the infrequent day visits) and we found this property available which is located centrally in Historic Lewes for exploring the town on foot.

High standards of decor and furnishings with a fully equipped kitchen in a beautiful house. Perfect to discover the architecture and history of town as well as lots of independent local shops. We stayed for 4 nights and would certainly recommend the property and stay again. Lots of books on the local history of Lewes which made me appreciate the area, all the more. All of this contributed the the perfect short break we had.

This is a lovely, cosy little cottage and equipped with everything you need for a week away from home, including a well stocked bookshelf!

The town of Lewes has some fabulous shops and a rather good brewery shop which we highly recommend! Looking forward to visiting again.

Being a taller person found the bed uncomfortable as had nowhere to put my feet due to the style of bed frame

We really enjoyed our stay at Cliffe cottage.

It's a very cosy and welcoming holiday home with lots to do nearby. We loved Lewes Castle and museum. The shop right across sells the most gorgeous sandwiches and is perfect for a coffee and snack afterwards. There's supermarkets very close to the cottage for any supplies you need. A very friendly place to visit and Cliffe cottage is the ideal base.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay.

Clean, comfortable and well equipped. Fab location and great to have a play area and children's bookshop so nearby for our daughter. I think Sykes could’ve given me more info prior to the visit about parking arrangements as they only directed me to pay and display car parks, which weren’t necessary, as we found out when we arrived. All in all a fantastic place to stay though.

I really satisfied with the stay in Cliff cottage.

It is a beautiful, well maintained cottage. Yet I find customer service of Sykes Cottages hopeless. I contacted you numerous times asking for the invoice ending not receiving one at all (although promised!) faced numerous incometent consultants. Moreover the fact that the only way of contacting you effectively is by phone practically affects the comfort of the clients from overseas.

A charming cottage with stylish decor.

Everything we could need and spotlessly clean.(I hope we left it the same). Nice to have an outside courtyard too. It is in a very convenient location and on the flat, a good plus in hilly Lewes! We did, however, walk to the golf club at the top of the hill and that is a real challenge, but worth it for the views. Just round the corner from the river, great cafes and enough antique shops to keep us busy for days. A real find!

A very comfortable cottage, tastefully decorated and homely.

The cottage is perfectly situated. It is in a quiet area only a short walk away from a Nature reserve and independent shops and excellent pubs in town.

Beautiful cottage in the center of Lewes.

Its like a home from home with everything you need. We stayed almost three weeks and everything was perfect, from al you need in the kitchen to the confort of the beds. Less than a minute walk and you are in the buzzing town and 8 minutes to the station if you want to explore the rest of Sussex without a car. A really lovely place to stay.

Fabulous house.

Perfect for three people. Well stocked and excellent location. Early check out is the only thing but I understand they need time to turn the house around. Would definitely recommend to a friend!!
