About this property

5 * luxury family home on a private sea estate

The Palm House is a luxury three bedroom detached house on a quiet residential private estate in the delightful seaside village of East Preston, 400m from the beach – first available for holiday rentals in 2017. Perfect for families wishing to find a ‘home-from-home’ on the Sussex coast. It is a lovely place for adults and children to relax either outside in the ample garden (with a large dining area, BBQ, grassed and patio areas for children to safely play), or in the comfortable living room which opens out to a large front patio, via sliding doors, allowing enjoyment of the sun throughout the day . The property has a gated front drive which means the whole outdoor area, surrounding the house is secure for children and dogs (although very small dogs could get under the gate!). The lounge includes a 42” flatscreen with BT TV (with BT Sport) and fast Wi-fi broadband. A log burner provides additional warmth and a cosy feel during the winter.

The house comfortably sleeps a family of up to six, with two large double rooms(one king, one super king) and a triple bunk room. It boasts a luxuriously appointed Porcelanosa bathroom with full length bath, separate power-jet shower cubicle and Bosch appliance kitchen. The kitchen has a breakfast bar area, and open plan living/dining area with convenient access to both front and rear garden /patio areas via bi-fold doors to front and patio doors to rear. The house has a comfortable ‘beach’ style feel, perfect for English summer holidays as well as being a cosy retreat in the cooler winter months. There is off-street parking for 2 cars.
The small village of East Preston is well appointed with two convenience stores, 3 pubs and excellent Chinese and Indian restaurants, as well as Fish & Chips takeaways all a short 5 minute walk away. Within a short drive are large supermarkets including Waitrose (Rustington), Asda, and Sainsbury’s.
In addition to the local village restaurants, there are highly rated traditional English pub/restaurants in Patching (World’s End), Arundel (The Rabbit), Littlehampton (East Beach Cafe), The Crabshack (Worthing), Royal Oak (Fulking) – all within 10-20 minutes drive.
East Preston is superbly located for very easy access (by car – all within 20-30 minutes drive) to many well known towns and family-friendly amenities on the beautiful Sussex coast, including neighbouring historic Arundel (castle), Littlehampton (2 miles ), Brighton , Chichester , Goodwood, Petworth, Storrington, Steyning and Upper Beeding. Bognor Regis and its family-friendly Butlins holiday complex is 20 mins away. There is a good train service offering access to London within 90 minutes.
Staying closer to ‘home’, the local beach is quiet and clean and makes a lovely place for a relaxing family day out. The walk along the beach in either direction is delightful and The Bluebird Cafe situated along the coast at Kingston Gorse is around 30 minutes walk away and is worth a visit.

We do accept bookings for less than a week, typically at 75% of the weekly cost.

Dogs - this is a lovely part of the world to walk dogs - we do accept well behaved, clean, house-trained dogs but please check with us beforehand for the 'house rules'! Note: We do also require an additional deposit for pets.

Peaceful home from home getaway
Great house, with a chilled beach vibe about 5 mins walk from nearest beach and not far from Kingston Gorse beach and the Bluebird cafe. The beach is fabulous and sandy for miles, when the tides out. Rented the house whilst we were renovating our own house and it was perfect for getting away from it all, and long walks down by the sea with the dogs. Nearby there’s a a nice local Sardinian restaurant in walking distance, plus we found the Andalusian tapas bar and restaurant in Ferring and Enzos in Worthing which would recommend! All amenities close by with good maim shopping in Rustington and local shops nearby. Thanks Sarah !

Amazing 50th Bday trip
Amazing area and a nice property in a fantastic location. The trip was to celebrate my wifes 50th who was born and grew up in Worthing. Easy checkin process and a lovely property that is well maintained. Nothing disappointed us and we left the property cleaner than we found it, would recommend to anyone.

Great staycation
We have just had a lovely 2 weeks in this beautiful house close to the beach. Tastefully decorated and well laid out for families - it suited us perfectly. Only 2 minutes walk from the beach which is dog friendly. It’s a shingle beach but at low tide has fab rock pools and at mid tide is sandy enough for beach cricket and sandcastles. The sea was very warm and great fun for swimming and paddling. Sarah was lovely and couldn’t have been more helpful or quick to respond. We have had a great holiday and will be back - thank you Sarah!
