We had a wonderful family break here. Easy access to Brighton and a terrific house. And this was in November. It'd be even better in summer.

The reason for this holiday was to celebrate my very ancient birthday. We were a party of adults who were impressed with the splendid amenities and the more than adequate space for 8 grown ups to wander about. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and whilst the pool was top of the list it was closely followed by splendid competitions on the pool/sRead morenooker table....memories of long past years! The location of the house was wonderful, and within a stone's throw of some wonderful walks for the more fitter of the party. There is so much to see and do around this area. Lastly, like previous reviewers have stated - a BIG thanks to Tracie who was an extremely helpful and attentive person during our stay. Hide

We have returned from La Villa after a wonderful weeks holiday. The house, gardens and swimming pool were well maintained with luxurious soft furnishings and the dining / cooking equipment was excellent. Spacious rooms, a bright and sunny courtyard provided our party of 8, [ranging in age from 3 years old to 66 years], with all the space we needeRead mored. Many thanks to the owner, [who we met on arrival], for the welcome pack of a delicious basket of savoury and sweet snacks. We would recommend this house to our family and friends. Hide

Absolutely loved La Villa. Its very well located, private and homely. The pool was amazing and we felt the different levels of the house helped us separate the kids when they went to bed and us watching tv without disturbing them. The garden was lovely and we had everything we needed. The host had fantastic communication with us the entire time andRead more really made us feel welcome. We will definitely return. Hide
