Great to be back in Sam's cosy cottage! Little Shiplake is a perfectly comfortable bolthole from which to explore this area of East Sussex. We'll be back!

  we recently enjoyed a lovely relaxing weekend in Laughton & were extremely pleased with our accommodation at Little Shiplake. The owner Sam, gave us great advise on the area &... read more we enjoyed a delicious lunch at the nearby Yew Tree Inn.

The accommodation had everything you could need for homely stay .. well equipped kitchen, spacious bathroom & loads of storage space. Quiet location across the courtyard from the main house, but Sam was on hand for any issues, or just a friendly chat!

Would definitely stay again when in the area.

  Lovely, quiet and comfortable place to stay. Very well located and a great pub just over the road. Already making plans to return later in the year!

  The location is far enough off the beaten path, but actually not too far from the beach, centre, and surrounding areas such as Eastbourne and Hastings. Until this trio, York... read more has been my favourite place, in the U.K., but it’s quite far. This accommodation is closer to Milton Keynes, and it has everything! It is self catering and nothing.,I mean, nothing was needed. We were truly comfortable and I slept, peacefully, on the first night which is unusual, for me, in new places. Seaford and New Haven beaches are a must visit, as well as a irking Gap and Cuckmere. Go towards Hastings to Alexandra Park, but don’t follow SatNav! Part on St Helens road. Our host, Sam was great and we enjoyed fresh eggs and milk..a real fresh farm treat! The horses, Jasmine and Bren will greet you well; especially if you have a polo mint! This is a must stay.

  Excellent bolt hole for 2 people (I would not like to be in a party of four!) with everything you need and a very good kitchen and bathroom. Perfect as... read more a base. Sofa bed made for a comfortable night, but was not terribly comfortable as sofa.

  Sam is such a nice host, friendly and approachable. Cottage was clean and tidy, with everything you could possibly need. The village shop was a short walk away if you... read more need anything (like freshly baked pan au chocolat!). The chickens and horses were so friendly and amusing. We drove to Bopeep upon Sam's suggestion and had an amazing walk to Alfriston and back. Would I book again? Absolutely!

  We had a great stay here last summer.
Used it as a base to explore along the coast.
We went to Lewes Priory, Glyndebourne, Newhaven Fort, Seaford, Eastbourne, Middle Farm,... read more paddle-boarding at Cuckmere ...
Our daughter loved being close to the horses and getting the chance to ride.
Nice pub just over the road.

Thanks Sam!
