Well, there's no mystery why this home has made our collection. The apartment is right on the beach in East Wittering, so as you can see, it has great views of the sea from the private sunny balcony as well as most rooms. Yes, the galley kitchen is a bit compact if there are more than two people in there, but it's modern and well-equipped. If you tire of East Wittering Beach (unlikely we know), West Wittering Beach, with its views of Chichester, is less than a ten-minute drive. Otherwise, Chichester Marina is just over ten minutes away in the car, and Goodwood House is around a thirty-minute ride.

Single-Level Home

Summer strolls along the soft sand of East Wittering beach are just a short walk away from this modern family home. Spend the day catching waves at the surf school, paddling in the shallows or simply admiring the rainbow of beach huts from the sand. The heart of East Wittering, with its fish and chip shops, seafood restaurants and trendy cafés, is just a fifteen-minute dander away too. 

Back at this family bungalow, driftwood-hued cladding gives off an immediate beachy vibe. The back garden is a private suntrap where a wicker dining set sits on the astroturf and a hot tub awaits for a post-seaside soak. Heading inside, the open kitchen and living room is a social space, soothing in pebble-grey and white. There’s a second seating nook at the back of the house, perfect for a kids’ hang-out space. Plus, the playroom and bunkbed bedroom let you know this place has been designed with families in mind.

Nestled a short walk from East Wittering beach, this home is perfect for a seaside family getaway. Set on a residential street, you can expect to see nearby neighbours – but with so many amenities within walking distance, it’s the location that sets this home apart. The garden is a welcome space, perfect for lazy sunny afternoons, while the cinema room is an added bonus, just the ticket for family movie nights. When the sea’s calling your name, take your pick of blue flag beaches to soak up the sea and sun. 

A Great Place to Be

Situated less than a hundred metres from the seafront, this modern home feels like a beach hut's sophisticated older sibling.

The walls are an instantly soothing shade of white, which are livened up by artwork in varying shades of blue and the odd house plant or two. This sense of brightness is also helped by the conservatory dining room, which acts as a suntrap on summer afternoons. You also have the option of heading out into the garden and enjoying balmy weather from the seating on the corner terrace — perhaps with dinner cooking away on the barbecue.

In addition to the aforementioned stretch of East Wittering Beach only four minutes' walk from the home, there are opportunities for rambles and birdwatching in the nearby Chichester Harbour AONB only six minutes' drive away. The cathedral city that lends this area its name lies only twenty-five minutes away in the car, too.



Blue Skies Are Coming

Located just steps from the beautiful East Wittering beach, this contemporary home is the ultimate seaside staycation. Boasting a private balcony with sea views, start the day with a cup of coffee while you breathe in the fresh sea air. When you're ready to head out and explore, you'll find golden shores mere minutes away, where you can stroll, sunbathe and surf the waves. If you fancy beach hopping, West Wittering is only a 10-minute drive away and has Blue Flag status.

After a day on the sand, travel home to jump in the shower and enjoy a family dinner in the garden. The lush green lawn offers plenty of space to stretch out and is perfect for little ones wanting to blow off some steam while the adults prepare food on the barbecue. When dinner's ready, gather everyone around the dining table on the patio and tuck in.

A stone’s throw away from East Wittering Beach, this beautiful home will capture beach lovers’ hearts, but with the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty minutes away, naturalists will fall in love too. Explore your surroundings on days out, stopping off in town for lunch. 

Golf enthusiasts can find Chichester Golf Course on the other end of a short drive. Practice your handicap on a stunning course whilst the rest of the family take themselves a little less seriously at Jungle Paradise Adventure Gold right next door.

Spend days at home in a leisurely fashion – we recommend a lot of lounging. Do a crossword puzzle in your own time as you nurse a cup of coffee at the breakfast counter. Dine alfresco out back and spend your days here with drinks and nibbles as the kids tire themselves out on the lawn. Stargaze at night before treating yourself to a luxurious bubble bath and retiring to one of the ultra-comfortable bedrooms.

Elevate your seaside getaway in this gorgeous home, mere steps from the glittering West Sussex coastline. Here, you can unwind in the quintessential coastal town, making the holiday of your dreams come to life with morning swims, lunchtime beach picnics, afternoon surfs, and evening barbecues at home. 

The contemporary, bright white façade is a fitting first impression of this home. The interior is sleek and modern, while maintaining a warmth that makes for lovely family stays. The kitchen is the heart of the home, where you can gather around the breakfast bar for your morning debrief of the day’s plans, prepare lunches of pasta salads together, or tuck into a home-cooked dinner around the dining table.

While the interior is wonderfully welcoming, we imagine you’ll want to spend most of your time in the sunny garden. A high fence promises complete privacy, with the only resemblance of your ideal location being the scent of sea mist hanging in the air. From invigorating coffees on the outdoor sofa to cocktails at dusk, you’ll love spending your days here.

If you’re not in your garden, you’ll be making the most of your coastal location. Try out surfing, kite surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding, and more, before enjoying lunch at the seaside café. There are some dining options here in Bracklesham Bay, but you’ll find a wider selection in the nearby village of East Wittering – including a couple of great traditional pubs. 

Cockleshells

Black-Out Blinds

Just a stone's throw from the beach, this East Wittering apartment is a cosy base for couples looking for a seaside escape. With a desk and fully-equipped kitchen, the home is great for remote working, while the living space is a comfortable substitute if your plan to hit the beach is rained off. You'll need to climb a flight of stairs to reach the first-floor entrance here, but the on-site parking means you won't need to carry your luggage far.

When we boast that this amazing home is beachfront, we really mean it, with direct access to Bracklesham beach via the garden, you really couldn’t get much closer. Wander along the pebbled shore with your four-legged friend and listen to the crunch of stones beneath your feet, brave a dip in the sea, or even challenge the kids to build sculptures from the stones. 

Built in the 1920s around a classic railway carriage, this home has been extensively modernised, and expanded over the years but still holds much of that original charm. We would love nothing more than to wake up here to the soothing sound of the waves and seagulls calls before enjoying breakfast on the balcony to truly admire the views. 

Spend the day relaxing at home, reading a good book on the terrace while the children entertain themselves in the playroom which is filled with kids’ books and toys, or taking a dip in the swimming pool. 

Head out for the day and visit West Wittering’s stunning Blue Flag Beach – a short six-minute drive away – for a sandy beach experience, and let the children play in the salty waves and build castles on the sand. Visit Chichester Cathedral – a twenty-seven-minute drive away, or spend a day at the races at Goodwood horse racing course or Goodwood Motor Circuit, reachable by car in twenty-nine minutes and twenty-three minutes, respectively. 

In the evening, dine together as a family, and then when the children are all in bed, why not end the day with a cool glass of wine on the balcony as you enjoy the outstanding sea views.

Glorious views, fresh sea air and an abundance of coastal charm – the tranquil village of West Wittering makes it easy to slow down and embrace life in the great outdoors. And just a short five-minute drive from East Wittering Beach, this home provides a welcoming seaside sanctuary. 

From slow morning breakfasts around the table to lazy afternoons with a book by the wood-burning fire and long soaks in the bath, you’ll find everything you could need for a restorative retreat. And with the welcome addition of a barbecue and pizza oven, summer evening’s can be spent embracing family fun and delicious meals in the garden. 

Back inside, you’ll find the living room sets the tone for cosy movie nights while the snug bedrooms will ensure you awaken feeling refreshed and ready to explore. 

Days can be spent strolling along the seafront, braving invigorating swims, following hiking trails and admiring the beautiful views. You’ll find it's just a short walk (or drive) to the local shops, pubs and restaurants, while the historic city of Chichester is easily reachable by car too.

Located in the small village of Birdham, this recently refurbished country home is perfect for families looking to escape the city. We particularly love the dining room conservatory –  an ideal place to eat breakfast while enjoying the views of the fields beyond your private garden. The home is just a short walk from several footpaths, for those keen to explore the countryside on foot. With West Wittering just a short drive away, you can also be at the beach in no time.

Enjoy a spectacular British beachside break at this gorgeous holiday home, based just a three-minute walk from the stunning sandy beaches of East Wittering. It’s set on a peaceful residential road, making this the ideal home for families looking for a stay by the sea. We love the open design that provides everyone with lots of space to stretch out and relax, with an extendable dining table for fish and chip feasts at lunchtime, as well as a dreamy lounge with large bi-fold doors out into the garden.

As soon as you step foot outside, you’ll be impressed by the pristine lawn that’s great for letting the kids run wild when it gets warm, and the rattan sun loungers that let you relax in the sunshine in the summer months. The hot tub is very inviting for spending serene evenings watching the stars come out while you relax in absolute bliss. 

Sand Dune Symphony

Only a short stroll from West Wittering Beach, this home provides the perfect base for exploring the West Sussex coast. We love the cosy, seaside-inspired design – think white-washed panelling, wicker furniture, and a cute window seat where you can curl up with a book. Family-style feasts can be rustled up with ease in the kitchen, while the patio is a great place to enjoy an alfresco digestif. As the bunk bed is only suitable for little ones, it's a better fit for families. Factor in the quick drive to Chichester and the proximity to the sea, and it's no wonder it caught our eye.

Coastal Cotton

Courtyard

Relax and unwind at this ecologically-minded stylish surfside retreat, just a five-minute walk from the Blue Flag-awarded sands of West Wittering Beach. 

On the ground floor, you'll find a minimalist open layout that's tailor-made for sociable stays, with plenty of space for everyone to sink into one of the comfortable sofas, play board games around the dining table and prepare family meals in the kitchen. Make the most of sunny days and step through the sliding doors and out into the garden, with its wooden deck and stepping stones winding between raised flower beds.

Its four bedrooms are split between the ground and first floors. The upstairs bedrooms are decked out in trendy OSB, which does away with the need for plastering and painting and adds a warm glow that only natural materials can bring.

The nearby beach is the undoubted star of your stay. However, there's plenty more to discover within a short drive. East Wittering is well-catered for when it comes to cafes, pubs and stocking up on essentials. Thrill seekers might like to book themselves a kitesurfing lesson, with kayaking and paddleboarding offering slightly more sedate options.

A little under 10 miles away, the pedestrianised centre of the cathedral city of Chichester is a pleasant place to while away an afternoon. Alternatively, listen to the roar of the engines at Goodwood's iconic motor racing circuit or the shouts of the crowds urging on their picks at Goodwood Racecourse.

The Ebbing Tide

This charming contemporary home is a five-minute walk from the sea and offers a tranquil, coastal retreat for your West Sussex escape. A home for all seasons, the living room boasts a wood burner, perfect for cosy nights in when it’s cold outside, watching a movie as the flames cast an amber glow around the room. In warmer months, light the barbecue and enjoy an alfresco meal with loved ones as the late afternoon sun warms your skin. And whatever the weather, the roll-top bath has to be indulged – add some bubbles and sink into its warm water after a busy day exploring the coast, and relaxation will wash over you. 

If you’re keen to show off your culinary skills, the sleek kitchen is ready and waiting to help you rustle up a delicious meal. Nearby you’ll find a whole host of eateries if you don’t fancy cooking – Bracklesham Bay has a great selection of restaurants and fish and chip shops, and both West and East Wittering have some fabulous pubs that offer up a tasty bite to eat. 

Captivated by the Coast

With direct access to a picturesque beach and light-filled interiors, this wooden house on the shores of Bracklesham Bay is a great place for a family on a lookout for a peaceful holiday base. Here, you’ll be able to enjoy all that this area has in store, with miles of nature walks, water sports and activities and some excellent pubs to be discovered. 

The inside offers plenty of space for everyone to find a quiet nook for relaxing with a holiday read, as well as for coming together and enjoying communal feasts and evenings of movies. With two living rooms – one on each floor – it doesn’t even have to be the same movie! 

Delicious family meals can be put together with ease in the well-equipped kitchen and savoured at the indoor dining table or outside on the large patio, where you can feast with the view of the sea before you. 

After a night of restful sleep which awaits in the six comfy bedrooms, wake up feeling restored and ready for more coastal adventures.

Pack up your bucket and spades and hit the beach at this contemporary yet playful home located just a five-minute stroll from the unspoilt sandy shores of the exclusive West Wittering Estate. A home begging for an intimate group of family or friends to come together, there's ample space to all spill out here. When the sun shines, pad across the cool, polished concrete floor and slide the patio doors right back to let the sunshine in. Kick back with a morning coffee from the espresso machine on the terrace while children play in the vast lawned garden. Or join them for an impromptu game of football – there's goals ready and waiting for action. On cooler days, come together around the vast dining table and break out the home's board games – the underfloor heating will keep toes toasty. Challenge your troops to a round of table football. Or sneak away upstairs for an early evening bath in the master suite – a glass of something chilled optional. When the sea finally calls, the soft sandy shores and dunes are just five minutes away for castle making, kite flying, and, if you're lucky with the swell, surfing. Should tummies start to rumble, there's a cafe at the beach, and the village's gastropub and coffee shop are just three minutes from your door. Or take a stroll along the coast to East Wittering (or a four-minute drive) for obligatory fish and chips on the beach.

Welcome Hamper

A gorgeous period cottage on the banks of the millstream, this home puts you in the heart of the picturesque English coastal village of Bosham. It’s incredibly quiet here, with barely any sound other than the burbling of the stream and the quacking of ducks. And as it’s a smartly converted community hall dating back to the 19th century, it combines the charms of yesterday with the comforts of today. At night, enjoy the home cinema set up complete with a popcorn machine, Shiatsu massage cushions and treats from the welcome hamper. In the mornings, sit on your patio directly on the stream and enjoy morning cappucinos. Then walk to the end of the lane and you’re at the water’s edge where you’ll find gorgeous views of the estuary – make sure you come back for sunset over the waterfront quay. For biking, walking and nature enthusiasts, the South Downs National Park is a fifteen-minute drive away and the Wittering Beaches are under a half-hour’s drive. Plus, if you’re looking for a little more action, the market town of Chichester is only 10-minutes by car from your tranquil home on the stream.

Fenced Property

Offering contemporary beachside living, this home by the sea is an idyllic space to unplug and reconnect with yourself and your loved ones. You'll get a quintessential British seaside experience with the set-up of what could well pass as an American beach home in Long Island. 

We love the open-plan layout of the main living area, which centres itself around the magnificent sea views framed by the huge floor-to-ceiling windows that run along the back of the home. Open up the patio doors and breathe in the fresh sea air while letting all of your worries slowly disappear. This place indeed presents an escape from reality. 

Enjoy the luxurious home comforts carefully selected by the host to ensure guests have a pleasurable stay centred around leisure and entertainment. Lounge around in front of the crackling fire after an afternoon of watersports in the sea and make the most of the outdoor dining area with alfresco meals or drinks whilst watching the balmy sunset colour the sky in the distance. Inside each of the bedrooms, you'll find a secluded slice of privacy and a place to relax throughout the day and, of course, when it's time to hit the hay. Don't forget to try out the telescope for some stargazing before taking yourselves off to bed, though, as the night's sky here glitters above when the weather is clear. 

With so many sites worth visiting nearby, we recommend exploring the likes of Arundel Castle for some history and culture – a thirty-five-minute drive away as well as the historic city of Chichester, reachable in just nineteen minutes by car. Nature lovers are also in luck here, as you'll have easy access to an area of outstanding natural beauty, with the South Downs National Park and Chichester Harbour both just a forty-minute drive away.

You might not expect to find a glittering outdoor swimming pool and tennis court in the UK, but this luxurious home aims to impress. Let yourself be wrapped up in splendour, nestled between manicured hedges and towering trees. You’re in your own little world here, although you’re just a five-minute drive from West Wittering’s blue flag beach. 

Let’s start with the shining jewel of the home – the garden. It’s the epitome of a charming British getaway, from the pretty foliage to the scent of sea mist hanging in the air. There’s nothing better than soaking up the south coast sun by the pool, getting lost in a good book, and occasionally taking a dip. When afternoon rolls around, watch the kids splashing in the pool, sharing a jug of Pimms around the outdoor sofa set. Or perhaps you’ll swap the wine for an energy drink and take to the tennis court.

Back inside, you’ll find a contemporary, sleek interior that welcomes families to spend quality time together. Whether that’s making use of the high-spec games room, chatting in the bright conservatory, or cuddling up in front of the fireplace with a good film on. 

Evenings are best spent preparing food together to be enjoyed around the grand dining table, or firing up the pizza oven for a sunny, alfresco dinner. If cooking isn’t on the cards, Chichester and its extensive selection of eateries is just a fifteen-minute drive away.

Pimms O'Clock

Piano

Unplug and reconnect with loved ones in this magnificent coastal home. This is a contemporary yet homely haven, set in just under one acre of mature gardens, filled with fruit trees and weeping willows. Natural light is ushered into the open-plan living, kitchen and dining area, the true heart of the home, and deep comfortable sofas, a natural palette and beautiful log burners welcome you in and wrap you up in a hug. Enjoy a movie night in front of the flat-screen TV – but only after you’ve indulged in a divine feast at the sprawling dining table, neatly tucked amongst a corner of windows. Sneak off for a relaxing bubble bath with a glass of Prosecco in hand, and it will be the most wonderful way to unwind. 
 
After a restful night’s sleep under the crisp white sheets, you’ll awake feeling refreshed and ready to take on the day. Indulge in a morning coffee sat next to the lavender, listening to the hum of the bees for a peaceful morning treat. This home is a magical escape bringing together coast, town and country effortlessly. 

Wind in Your Sails

Fenced Pool

An outdoor swimming pool might not be the first thing you expect to see in the UK, but this coastal home is full of surprises. And perhaps the best surprise of all is it’s just a seven-minute walk away from West Wittering’s blue flag beach. Here, you can easily start your day with a morning walk along the sand, surfing the waves, or with a coffee at a seafront café. Perhaps an amble through the countryside is how you’d like to kick off your day – your private estate is nestled between fields, or you can head to the South Downs for a cycle through verdant valleys. 

There’s plenty to keep all the family entertained at home, too. Get on the Peloton, bounce around the trampoline, or have a game of table tennis. But it’s not all go-go-go here – sometimes all you want to do is read your book beside the pool, basking in the UK’s beautiful south coast. Whip up a pitcher of fruity Pimms to be enjoyed around the outdoor sofa, chatting away while the kids splash in the pool. Or better still – hop in the bubbling jacuzzi for total relaxation. 

If a jam-packed day has left you all tired, a quiet barbecue at home is the perfect way to round off the evening. If you fancy going out, it’s the ideal time to explore West Wittering’s pubs – there’s a great one nearby. Or you can take a twenty-five-minute walk to East Wittering for a change of scenery. 

Countryside Sunrise

If it’s a relaxing, seaside getaway that you seek, you’ve hit the jackpot here. Simply step outside of your home and find yourself in front of the glittering south coast, breathing in the fresh sea air. It doesn’t get much more coastal than this. Here, you can start your days with invigorating walks along the beach, take early swims, or simply spend time by yourself on the pebbles.

Inside, you’ll find a warm and homely interior that’s been thoughtfully designed for you to feel at ease. There are subtle nods to the seaside surroundings, taking inspiration from the natural beauty, with earthy tones, blue hues, and atmospheric artwork. Not that you need reminding – the sparkly blue sea is in full view. 

If you’re not admiring the view with a cup of coffee or curled up in the conservatory with a good book, you’ll love spending your mornings in the sunny garden. Gather around the outdoor table for a hearty breakfast, letting the morning drift into the afternoon while you unwind on the sun loungers. 

If you get itchy feet, there are plenty of ways to fill your days. When you’re not relaxing on the beach, you can find a spot for surfing, paragliding, kite surfing, and more. West Sussex is full of fun watersport activities, or you can explore Selsey and the nearby towns on land. After a fun-filled day, be sure not to miss the sun dip into the English Channel at dusk. 

Channelling the Sea

Baby Bath

For the group that likes to spread out on the country getaways, this converted stable near the South Downs is the perfect choice. There’s two of everything: lounges with wood-burning stoves, country-style kitchens and even two separate backyards each with its own hot tub. The full outdoor kitchen under the pergola can accommodate the most elaborate of barbecues in the summer months and when the weather gets cooler you can get a fire going in the outdoor brick fireplace and huddle on the sofa. Inside, striking equestrian-themed artworks are a nod to the building’s former life as a stable and two dining tables (one in each cottage) with long benches are pure rustic country vibes. As the sun sets, it’s a choice between the circular or square hot tub, both bubbling away beneath stringed lights. Here, you’re on the edge of the South Downs National Park, and bedroom windows overlook the estate’s hay meadow for a bit of tranquillity. Yet, the shops, pubs and coffee shops of Bosham village are a fifteen-minute stroll away where you’ll find wildlife-filled walks in the Chichester Harbour Area of Natural Beauty.  

The Equestrian

Make yourself at home in this contemporary bungalow just 100 metres from the sea. It's perfect for a family – not only will kids have their own room filled with books and toys, but the playhouse in the garden is sure to be a favourite. While they're playing pretend, parents can kick back and relax at the picnic table, enjoying a refreshing drink and free-flowing conversation as the stars pop out overhead. 

During the summer, fling open the patio doors and effortlessly transition between the sunny garden and the sleek living area. Inspired by the coastal setting, the design features deep blues, crisp whites and lots of natural elements – we're particularly fond of the three-piece octopus print hanging near the sofa. When the weather is chilly, the log-burner will keep things nice and toasty as you wind down with a glass of wine and a Netflix movie.

When you're ready to venture out, it's about ten minutes on foot to Bosham village, where you'll find a waterfront pub, cafe and a few shops. The walks along the harbour are excellent, but most of the action lies in Chichester's historic city centre, a seventeen-minute drive away. For a day at the beach, West Wittering's Blue Flag Beach is a must-visit – it's about half an hour away by car.

Aquamarine Octopus

Air Conditioning

Though small, this bright garden annexe in Bosham is perfect for solo nomads and couples looking for a romantic coastal break. With a double sofa bed facing the wall-to-wall bi-fold doors, you can wake up to a green view of the shared garden. The kitchen, although not the biggest, has a coffee maker and everything you need for light bites to enjoy alfresco on the terrace. A short drive from Aldwick Beach, Portsmouth and Waterlooville Golf Club, there's a little something for everyone here.

The Dashing Prince

Gated Community

A timber cabin surrounded by meadows and woodland might sound like a back-to-basics retreat, but at this home in rural Sussex, guests will have a wealth of luxuries at their disposal.

This is before you've even entered the home, as well. Out on the decked terrace, there's a hot tub from which you can enjoy the tranquillity of the local area, as well as a sofa and swing seat. When the sun goes down, there are festoon lights to turn on, plus a charcoal barbecue and fire pit to keep you fed and warm.

If the temperature dips a little too low, there's a wood-burning fireplace inside the home, as well as plenty of cosy blankets and board games. Inside, the design is rustic in places, as with the weathered wood dining table, but the sleek black kitchen and stylish bedrooms are nothing but modern.

When it comes to filling up your itinerary, there's so much to see and do nearby. The sprawling South Downs National Park starts a minute's drive to the north, while the Chichester Harbour Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty sits a similar amount of time in the opposite direction. The town of Bognor Regis and its beach can be reached in twenty-five minutes.
