We enjoyed a sunny week in this comfortable, wonderfully located apartment, close to the downs, sea and town.

We had a very enjoyable week at Conkers despite the weather being wet at the start of the holiday. The location was especially good for our dog with walks on The Downs starting from opposite the front door. The rear courtyard catches the afternoon sun and was a quiet, relaxing place for afternoon tea.

As a family of 4 we would stay again. Great location and nice layout of rooms. Only downside is WiFi needs to be improved.
