Tranquillity and glorious luxury await you in this sumptuous home of chic simplicity and copper styling.

There are five exceptional bedrooms, all located on the upper floors. Muted greys, whites and creams complement the sparkling chandeliers, gilded mirrors and of course, those signature copper details.

Simplicity and grace combine amid the stone, marble and wood of these fabulous bathrooms, of course glinting with a dash of copper!
And when the sun is shining, step outside to your sun-trap courtyard through the vast French doors beside the dining area. The patio provides a charming retreat into the fresh air, where you can enjoy alfresco dining alongside the olive trees in privacy! Just a short walk from the beach, shops and bars, the sights and sounds of this wonderfully quintessential English seaside town are at your fingertips! Yes, Brighton is truly your oyster! One of the major seaside resorts of Britain, Brighton offers some funky nightlife, offbeat shopping in alternative boutiques and traditional British seaside fun! And with a stay in Brighton Bijou Cottage, you’re right at the heart of it!
Because of the two universities (the University of Sussex and The University of Brighton), Brighton has a rich, varied and exciting nightlife, and once a year in May holds the Brighton Fringe Festival abounding with street performers, theatre groups, musicians, guided walks and other lively and fascinating events.
A maze of rolling countryside, abbeys and battlefields, medieval villages, bustling market towns and gorgeous coastline, East Sussex is also the most forested county in England! Diverse, inspirational landscapes and breath-taking views from the endless tranquil and unspoilt settings make this an incredibly enticing county right on the south coast of England. And that’s not to mention its 90 miles of stunning beaches and vibrant towns and cities!
Hidden villages and towns blitzed by bloody Norman battles, cool seaside resorts and flourishing vineyards, traditional country pubs and thriving market towns, ancient woodland and lowland heaths are all tucked among a maze of crisscrossing paths and lanes and country roads. Views of rolling farmland and historic estates in all directions add a sense of the timeless elegance of Sussex and its wide variety of wildlife and habitats among beautifully varied geography. Idle your way through the cobbled medieval streets of Rye, the flat marshes of Pevensey, the high Ground of Ashdown Forest, beautiful lowlands and river landscapes of the Lower Weald and the maze of avenues through Friston and Ashdown Forests.
With 1,750 hours of sunshine per year, ‘Sussex by the Sea’ offers some of the sunniest and cleanest beaches in the UK, including the traditional English seaside town of Brighton, whose beach is renowned for its packed seafront. And then there’s Eastbourne, Bexhill-on-Sea, Hastings and St Leonard’s, to name but a few. Take a trip to Hastings old town, the shipwreck heritage centre and flamingo adventure park for the perfect day out!
There are endless fabulous homes and gardens to visit, including Great Dixter House and Garden, Michelham Priory and Sheffield Park Garden with an array of stunning colours, exotic flora, magnificent gardens, elegant lakes and even a sculpture trail! At the priory, you’ll even find a medieval cloister garden and the longest medieval moat in England!
For an active day in the sunshine, stretch your legs on the South Downs Way, which traverses from Eastbourne to Winchester along England’s newest national park, the South Downs National Park, with 1,600km2 of breath-taking views and hidden gems. Indeed, if you’re a keen walker or cyclist, there’s 3500km of walking paths, bridleways and scenic roads, including the well-establish routes of the Cuckoo Trail, and the incredible Forest Way.
If travelling from far away, just outside East Sussex, Gatwick Airport services the whole world, while Brighton City Airport (often called Shoreham Airport) provides flights to many UK airports.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
