Cottage summary
Welcome to The Hide
The Hide sleeps eight adults in four bedrooms over three floors: a king with an en suite at the top of the house, two doubles and a twin. There are two showers, a bath and three loos, a fully enclosed garden with a charcoal BBQ and a table for eight, off-road parking for one car, and dogs and cats are welcome. The beach entrance by the Western car park is a 0.3-mile walk.
The Hide is on the White Sand development in Camber and is looked after by Beside the Sea Holidays, local hosts since 2009.
The first-floor living room looks out over the marsh, with French doors to a balcony and a bistro table for morning coffee. Downstairs, the kitchen-diner opens through bi-fold doors onto the garden, and a travel cot, high chair and stair gate are ready if you need them. Rye is 3.9 miles away, about 8 minutes by car.
Midweek two-night stays from £426.36, October to December, cleaning included, nothing added at checkout.
