The Details
Tucked behind the shingle shores of Winchelsea Beach, where sea meets sky and the pace of life softens, The Cot is a dreamy coastal escape designed for those craving space, sea air and simplicity. Hidden from passersby yet just moments from the beach, this subtly stylish home is all about barefoot living and easy days outdoors.
Inside, it’s cosy and welcoming, with light-filled open-plan living and a corner sofa made for flopping post-beach. A wood burner adds warmth in the cooler months, while board games, books and soft throws make it the kind of place you’ll love to linger. The kitchen, with its brushed gold fittings and wooden worktops, is both beautiful and practical – perfect for laid-back cooking and long, sociable meals at the dining table.
Sleeping six across three generous bedrooms, the house includes a master suite complete with a freestanding bath – ideal for a soak after long walks or salty swims. And yes, your dog is more than welcome too – after all, what’s a beach break without your best friend in tow?
Step outside and the magic continues. In summer, throw open the patio doors to the raised deck and mature garden beyond – a peaceful spot for alfresco dinners, morning coffee, or a chilled glass of something local on the outdoor sofa. As dusk falls, gather around the fire pit to toast marshmallows, sip G&Ts and watch the stars come out.
Set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Winchelsea Beach is a charming, off-the-radar coastal village, bordered by the wild beauty of Rye Nature Reserve and the cliffs of Pett Level. With a local pub, shop, deli and butcher all within walking distance and the storybook streets of Rye and Winchelsea village just a short drive away, you can explore – or stay put and soak up the quiet charm of this magical stretch of coast.
