    Ideally placed the property has everything required, clean, warm and welcoming and now Seahouses has had an IT upgrade wifi which works well. The owner Judy is delightful and we would recommend Rock End to anyone wishing to explore this area.

    Location is spot on with lovely sea views. 10 min walk to centre of Seahouses with great places to eat. Also hotel next door where we ate a couple of nights. The beach is long and sandy and you can see and walk to Bramber castle along. Owner Judy is such a lovely lady and nothing is too much trouble. Would definitely stay here again if we return to Seahouses
