Sunnyside, Camber Sands — Coastal Dog-Friendly Cottage Sleeps 5, South-Facing Garden & Stroll to the Beach

Welcome to Sunnyside — your coastal retreat at White Sand

Sunnyside is a dog-friendly cottage on the White Sand development at Camber Sands — a cosy, beachy 3-bedroom retreat that sleeps 5, with 2 bathrooms plus a handy ground-floor cloakroom.

Just a short stroll and you’ll be over the dunes and onto three miles of golden sand — perfect for early-morning dog walks, kite-flying, sandy picnics and proper family beach days. Back at the cottage, everything feels light and relaxed, with airy, sunlit spaces and that easy-going seaside vibe throughout.

Outside is the real treat: a south-facing, fully enclosed garden with a pergola and comfy rattan furniture — ideal for lazy breakfasts, al fresco suppers, and those long, chatty evenings that holidays are made for. A proper home-from-home by the sea

Dog-friendly details

Sunnyside welcomes well-behaved dogs, and with Camber Sands beach just a short stroll away, your four-legged friend will be in heaven. Three miles of wide, flat sand to sprint across, dunes to sniff and plenty of other dogs to make friends with — it really is one of the best dog-friendly beaches in the south-east.

Muddy-paw tip: towel your dog down in the enclosed garden before heading inside. The south-facing space with its different zones makes it easy to shake off sand after a beach session.

Seasonal beach zones (May–September): during the summer months Camber Sands operates dog-friendly zones at either end of the beach, while the central section is dog-free. Outside of those months the entire beach is yours to roam. Full details are in our Camber Sands for Dogs guide.
