Magpies

We had a wonderful long weekend stay in this beautiful apartment in St.

Leonards. The place is incredibly spacious, with high ceilings that make it feel even more open and relaxing. The interior is absolutely lovely, full of character with beautiful artwork and pictures throughout the apartment. One of our favourite things was the living room with its large windows and terrace. When we opened the doors, it genuinely felt like being surrounded by a forest — so peaceful and green, with an amazing view. The apartment is also wonderfully quiet, and waking up to the sound of birds singing in the morning was such a treat. The bathroom with windows was another lovely touch, making the whole place feel bright and airy. Overall, it was the perfect place for a relaxing getaway, and we would happily stay again.

The flat is a real 'home from home', warm, comfortable, clean and ideally situated for walks to the seafront and days out in the car to Hastings, Eastbourne, Dungeness.

Brighton, Hailsham to name a few. Wonderful walks close by too. Sussex is a beautiful county and we would certainly stay at 'Magpies' again.

I am still waiting to have the courtesy of a response from you regarding our complaint of bad smell and flies which spoilt the total holiday experience.

Very nice place, very complete and with a nice balcony.

Lovely flat, very comfortable and well furnished with all you need.

Excellent location, and great restaurants, bars, cafes, charming markets etc nearby. Small point, would have been good to have the name of the WiFi network in the general information, and a heads up that even when you hit upon the right one, sometimes the password would not let you in. Just try again several times! And info on which sides of the bin to use for recycling would have been nice. The cooker didn't work on two of the four hobs. As others have said, maybe replace the key holder? It just fell out. But we had a lovely time, thank you very much.

A really charming apartment.

The pictures don't actually do it justice. It was in an ideal location and parking wasn't an issue. Our only quarms were the key safe was fiddley to use (as mentioned by others), a larger, comfier sofa is needed, and the cleanliness could be a little better. If I were being extra picky, I'd also say the addition of instant coffee would've been nice, as not everyone drinks tea. ;)

2 adults: Well appointed, comfortable home with all the amenities needed for a delightful stay.

Safe on-road parking. We used buses, rather than our car for exploring. With Google this was easy to do.

It was good to stay at Magpies again.

It was as excellent as usual. Comfortable bed. It had everything we needed. There are some excellent restaurants and cafes within walking distance. Hope to stay there again

We had a very good stay here and the accommodation was excellent, comfortable and clean.

The apartment had everything we needed and was well located to explore the area. We did find that seafront was not far away although it was all up hill coming back plus the roads are in a poor state with lots of sizeable potholes, it is what it is.

When we arrived difficultly getting key from outside key safe as other guests had said.

Although weather was nice some evenings were chilly, no instructions for heating although other guests had said same owner said would put instructions for heating but no instructions. Flat was nice but settee was not comfortable. The entrances before you got into flat were dirty and full of cobwebs not a welcoming sight . The flat was local to places we visited and free parking, that was a good benefit. I would give it 3 star has did have terrace to sit out which was nice.

We had a very pleasant stay at Magpies.

The type of dwelling with high ceilings and individual style of furniture ( but very nicely and tasteful arranged), was different than some holiday accommodation we stayed in the past. As matter of fact it felt very homely and we would have been happy staying there for a longer time. We enjoyed sitting on the terrace watching a pair of foxes at the top of the garden below. The kitchen was well appointed and easy to work in. Due to some recent spinal problem of mine I hand to sleep some nights in the second bedroom and can confirm that both beds are very comfortable. Despite the road along the park being always fully parked up, we had no problem all week long finding a parking spot right near the house. We liked that the owners send us a welcome email with an pdf giving us advance information about the place. As we like to travel and explore different places, we tend to seldom return , however this could be one of the exceptions. Thank you for providing us with a very nice holiday home.

This property was perfect for our stay.

It was also convenient for the train station and bus stops, shops and the sea.

Lovely flat, comfortable and well equipped with a nice balcony overlooking a beautiful garden.

No problems with parking, found a space outside the flats everyday. Would have been nice to have some instructions for the central heating, even though it was June we had a couple of cold days and the bathroom in particular was chilly!! Good base to explore the area, we visited Rye, Eastbourne, Battle and Sissinghurst, can recommend. All in all a lovely holiday, thank you.

We had a great stay at Magpies.

We found the flat to be very clean throughout, well-equipped and tastefully decorated. We loved the terrace when it was sunny. The beds were comfortable, allowing a good night‘s sleep. The area is quiet and in easy walking distance to cafes on Kings Road & the train station. We always found a parking spot outside. The owners were very responsive when we had some small queries. Overall a great holiday let at a great price. We‘ve already recommended it to friends & family.

This is our second visit to Magpies.

It was better than I remembered it. It was extremely clean, very comfortable and had everything you needed in the kitchen. It was a short walk to Kings Road with shops , cafes and restaurants. We shall certainly be staying there again.

The flat worked very well for us.

We really liked the decor, care had been taken to make sure that it was clean (much cleaner than our house!) and it location proved perfect for us. We were able to visit family in Bexhill, walk along the seafront to the old town, catch the train to Brighton (station a few minutes' walk), and drive to Eastbourne and Rye. Yes, many thanks, a comfortable spacious flat. Our only minor difficulty was with the key safe when we arrived - it opened after a couple of tries but the inside fell out. We struggled at the end as well. That really is a miinor thing and perhaps the struggle was because of us.

The property had everything required for a holiday break for a party of three people.

Clean comfortable and tidy. Central location, in a quiet area. No negatives to mention. We enjoyed our stay.

Had a wonderful stay at magpies, Nice and bright, everything was ,as described, near station , so great for exploring, thanks would stay again Charlie

A great stay in a good location.

Clean, airy and comfortable. Nice neighbours below. Working the key box code was a challenge because the keys would not stay in the box as we tried to close it. .

Very comfortable apartment, a real home from home feel in a quiet location close to sea front.

Great base to explore East |Sussex. We loved our stay, thank you to Joe and Jane for the recommendations on where to eat and landmarks to visit. Sue and Andy
