Guest Reviews

• Jacob (10/5): -
• Inge (9/5): -
• Sarah (10/5): - Comfortable, friendly, perfect for what we needed
• Tessina-Larissa (9/5): Perfekte Unterkunft für eine Nacht (2 Personen, 1 Hund) - Schöne Einrichtung, sauber, super nettes Personal, gutes Essen im Pub, unser Hund war sehr willkommen—gerne wieder! Nicht gefallen würde ich es nicht nennen, aber damit sich niemand wundert: Man bekommt den Pub natürlich mit, doch das war klar und die Endzeit ist bekannt. Für lichtempfindliche Menschen könnten die Jalousien unzureichend sein.
• Nathalie (10/5): - Tout : l'emplacement, la nourriture du pub (frites succulentes), la soirée musicale Ras
• Victoria (10/5): -
• Jan (8/5): -
• Stefaan (9/5): Sfeervol & gezellig - Mooi appartement boven een gezellige pub, sfeervol, serveren lekker eten. Hartelijke ontvangst. Net een optreden die avond van lokale singer-songwriters. Geen directe toegang tot strand, wel zeezicht een beetje verderop.

• Dirk (10/5): Urlaub der besonderen Art mit eigenem Balkon direkt über einem Restaurant. - Das Apartment liegt direkt über dem Restaurant Cove, so dass wir an einem Abend vom eigenen Balkon ein privates Konzert genießen konnten. Morgens konnten wir entspannt und ruhig auf dem Balkon frühstücken, da das Restaurant erst am Mittag öffnete.
• Toby (10/5): An unforgettable experience - The décor and ambience of was divine. The staff were all simply delightful. Friendly and helpful to the last. The food and drink offerings were all exceptional. If I had to choose a negative, the rooms were perhaps a little small. But that said, they are limited by the building itself and were exceptionally well thought out in terms of what was crammed in to such a small space.
• Annette (9/5): Comfortable one night stay - Great location. Very friendly and helpful staff in the pub. Lighting could be better in the flat but otherwise very comfortable.
• Dagmar (10/5): Sehr gute Wohnung mit sehr guten Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis - Super, tolle Ausstellung, 5 Minuten vom Meer entfernt. Abends kann man schön unten essen gehen. Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Ich hätte mir etwas mehr Besteck und Teller gewünscht, damit man gut frühstücken kann. Ansonsten war alles super.
• Kathrin (9/5): Auf dem Weg nach Dover eine superschöne letzte Unterkunft - Schickes Ambiente gehobener Pub
• Gretje (9/5): -
• Alyson (10/5): - Perfectly formed room and en suite Nothing!
• Stephan (10/5): - Appartement ist perfekt Nichts
• Martina (10/5): Perfekter Aufenthalt bei Olivia! - Superschnuckliges, kleines 2-Raum-Familienzimmer mit allem, was man braucht. Sehr nett und liebevoll eingerichtet, hochwertige Handtücher und Bettwäsche. Shampoo und Duschgel vor Ort. Äußerst sauber. Sogar Tee/Kaffee/kleiner Kühlschrank mit Milch&Trinkwasser vor Ort plus Teller und Besteck. Eine Mappe mit allem Wissenswerten liegt bereit. Personal hilfsbereit und freundlich. Grandios! -
• Geert (9/5): Great apartment above great pub - Great apartment above a great pub with good drink selection and simple but good food. Ideal for accessing wider area, beaches and towns such as Hastings. Staff was friendly and helpful. Apartment was very clean, in good condition and well equipped. Not much, although some breakfast could be included for the price (even if not fresh. Some pastries and fruit?). Blankets were too thick for summer temperatures. Immediate location a bit odd in the middle of a residential area, with no shops, but no problem with a car.
• Bruce (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sarah (9/5): Superb -
• Becky (9/5): Great location. Amazing pub - Great location lovely pub. Lovely big suite. Comfortable bed. Half way between suite and apartment. Would benefit from a kitchenette.
• Snelling (9/5): Superb - I had a very enjoyable stay at the Cove and dinner in the garden. The room was quiet and bed very comfortable. The food served in the pub was delicious and I was well looked after. The area is great for exploring Hastings Country Park and Pett. N/A
• Ruben (9/5): Superb - Great place to start or end your UK trip. The apartment is spacious and has a great terrace to sit in the evening or have breakfast. Also the best shower and bed of our entire trip. Loved the pub food and friendly staff. The couch wasn't super comfy and the blinds in the bedroom let in a lot of light.
• Catherine (10/5): Brilliant - We really enjoyed our stay, the room was lovely, had everything we needed, was very clean and the staff were wonderful. It was great having the pub below too to pop down for food and drinks
• Marc (10/5): brilliant stay in a great place - Great amount of space, really good quality finish to the rooms, super comfy beds. Was a really good stay all round, can't fault it
• Russell (10/5): Gorgeous property above a great pub - Great, spacious area above The Cove pub. Everything provided. The pub has really friendly staff and offers good food. The location is in a quiet neighbourhood and perfect for exploring the coast along to Winchelsea and Rye. I really recommend a stay. I can't fault the stay.
• Luda (10/5): Perfect hidden gem - Not the first but also not the last time staying at the Cove when visiting family. Absolutely love the pub and the rooms, has everything you need and feels like home. Can’t wait for next visit :)
• Jessica (9/5): Pleasant, good value for money - It is a beautiful property located under a nice pub/restaurant. The bed was very comfy with lovely quality bed linen. It was surprisingly quiet considering where it was situated. The owners/managers were keen to make our stay as nice as possible. We had some problems with the shower which the owners quickly rectified but other than that, it was spot on.
• Moorshead (9/5): Superb - Excellent room fully equipped with all you need for a a few nights. Very good food served in the Cove downstairs. Pizza van on site for the Tuesday when the kitchen was closed was a bonus
• Jenny (9/5): Superb -
• Tristanne (10/5): Exceptional -
• Chris (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sarah (10/5): Lovely apartment, and a great pub with fantastic food and service - Everything was perfect. Nothing.
• Barb (10/5): Excellent stay in a delightful village. - Loved the peace and quiet. Very clean and spacious. Absolutely everything you could need. Sadly I didn’t get time to eat there but the meals looked fabulous. The staff were so helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay again.
• Esme (8/5): Very good - Great food in the pub below, comfy sofa and plenty of space Would be great if there was a breakfast basket provided. Mattresses are in need of a topper, could feel the springs in both double bed and bunk beds.
• Claira (10/5): Exceptional - Loved the staff, loved the cosy room
• Julia (10/5): Cosy break in relaxing apartment 💕 - Lovely welcome from Mel - apartment was just right ! Lovely hemp bed linen ! Coffee machine, kettle and fridge - Netflix on TV - no noise from pub downstairs for me 💕 Superb shower - I also had the best steak pie in the pub in the evening. Thank you xx Nothing to dislike IMO x
• Alyson (10/5): Home from home - Very comfortable, fridge very handy All good!
• Rebecca (10/5): Great place to stay and the pub was awesome too - I really liked the feel of the suite, it was so airy and stylish but still comfortable. The shower was lovely too. Also didn't realise there was a toaster so could have taken some breakfast! The weather meant I couldn't enjoy the terrace. There is no breakfast available but I think it's something that is being reviewed.
• Brian (10/5): Exceptional -
• Eleana (9/5): Great experience. Friendly, approachable owner. Appreciated comfort, luxury and warmth. - New build with great heating system. Very comfortable bed.
• Javier (9/5): Convenient and spotless - Apartment was clean, convenient, real value for money Nice atmosphere of the downstairs bar If I need to mention something, breakfast, with not much option around. Minor note, as the apartment is extremely well equipped, with Vertuo, fridge, etc.
• Jayne (10/5): Very comfortable and well maintained. The real bonus is the excellent food on site. welcoming staff. -
• Jadwiga (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ewelina (10/5): Relaxing stay with family - We had a relaxing stay at Fairlight Cove and truly fell in love with this beautifully furnished, cozy apartment. We also enjoyed a drink and dinner at a restaurant, which was delicious. We appreciated the food, the ambiance, the people, and the warmth of the fireplace. We are planning to return soon to explore the area further. A big thank you to Olivia, who was a fantastic host!
• Gina (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kevin (9/5): lovely stay - easy checkin, Olivia was very helpfull, nice little appartment and nice overal space/furniture If the pub underneath it isnt closed yet when you go to bed you can hear some noises but its easy to fall asleep to the humming sounds of people
• Samuel (10/5): Lovely stay near the coast - Lovely staff on arrival. Fresh milk for tea (what a boon) Room beautifully clean Just about has a sea view
• Rosie (8/5): Very good -
• Vicki (10/5): Exceptional - A cosy unit with stylish decor, comfy bed and great shower.
• Hazel (10/5): Exceptional - Our accommodation was lovely, furnishings were really nice, clean room and bathroom, all the staff were really nice and very accommodating
• S (8/5): Very good - Cozy, well equipped, but small room. Perfect for a person travelling alone. Great food in the pub, and very nice staff Nothing
• Natalie (9/5): Had a fantastic stay at the Fairlight Cove, it is in a beautiful area and we will definitely return. - A lovely modern apartment above a really nice pub with a great little balcony to sit outside. Very comfortable with Netflix, good Wi-Fi & a coffee machine. The food was great in the pub and the staff were all lovely. The only negative I have is that the bedsheets and towels were so rough! Also a couple of hooks in the bedroom instead of the lounge to hang clothes would have been great. Other than that it was perfect!
• Rachel (10/5): Incredible accommodation in a gorgeous pub with wonderful staff. Very impressive. - The apartment we stayed it was very comfortable and incredibly spacious. It was really clean and beautifully decorated. We had a lovely Sunday afternoon/ evening in the pub with delicious food, beer and wine. The staff were so friendly, welcoming and helpful with everything. Thank you. It couldn’t have been better.
• Pastuart (10/5): Exceptional - The Cove delighted me with thoughtful touches like the in-room Guide and Vertuo coffee machine. The immaculate cleaning and the town's charm, with easy access to scenic walks in Rye and Hastings, made it a perfect base for my cycling holiday. I also highly recommend the on site, fresh, delicious pub food. Overall, a fantastic experience!
• Alistair (10/5): Excellent - What a great place. Olivia was fantastic and all the staff at the Bar/Restaurant were so nice and helpful. Room was great and clean and comfy. The food was great a real Gastro Pub.
• Sarah (8/5): Very good -
• Kairen (10/5): Excellent - Beautifully furnished, very clean, very comfortable.
• Andreas (7/5): Good -
• Françoise (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was more than perfect. Squeaky clean, comfy bed, modern bathroom, mini fridge, kettle, plenty of tea or herbal tea bags, coffee machine, Netflix, a small desk and a lovely genuine old school chair. Large private car-park. Very quiet, even when the pub is busy. Olivia and her husband are very friendly and anticipate our needs. Bottle of water and also milk in fridge. I didn’t have the opportunity to try the restaurant but the fresh line-caught sea bass on the menu was very tempting! Outstanding walks over the cliffs to Hastings. Attending the monthly book club on the Wednesday was the icing on the cake! Most highly recommended!
• Sonia (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely spacious stylish, amazing shower and comfy beds. Great pub food, fab walk back down to Hastings. Perfect!
• Christian (9/5): Superb - Great food, great staff and a good atmosphere.
• Molly (10/5): Relaxed and cosy stay - Really comfortable, friendly and good value for money. Lovely restaurant too! Nothing - all good.
• Tyler (10/5): Quiet relaxing and tranquil - The property in general was great unbelievable value for money and in a beautiful/quiet location… second year running staying here and already looking forward to our third! Also beautiful scenery for a lovely walk in cliffs and nature reserve absolutely outstanding
• Grant (10/5): Excellent, just what I needed. - An easy check in with the host Olivia, who was welcoming and friendly, excellent communication beforehand (I only booked the night before) with easy parking. The room was cosy, extremely clean and perfect for one person. A comfortable bed with nice bedding and pillows. Everything I needed was in the room (e.g. coffee machine with pods, kettle, proper fresh milk in the fridge in a glass bottle, plus a percolator). A big double shower. TV (no terrestrial but with Netflix). Peaceful and quiet. Easy to book the restaurant downstairs, where there was a great atmosphere and lovely food. Near the sea. Nice outside sitting area. Will definitely return. Breakfast would be good in the morning but it really didn't matter as there were great cafes nearby.
• Elizabeth (9/5): Relaxing stay - Outside verandah size of suite was amazing Pub beneath room had excellent food and the night there was no food a pizza van visited and food could be taken into pub to have with drinks from the bar Not having breakfast available on site It was further away from the coast than I had envisaged
• Anna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Andrew (10/5): Exceptional stay. I was totally relaxed. - The staff, my room and the food. I can’t think of anything I didn’t like.
• Lucy (10/5): Wonderful break! - Really lovely accommodation. Very helpful host and staff. I would recommend this destination to everyone! N/A
• Caroline (10/5): Great short stay! - A great place to stay for a couple of nights. Perfectly clean suite with an ideal set up with the 2 bedrooms for a stay with the kids. Food at the pub was great too. Would definitely recommend and we'd love to come back! No breakfast available at the property but they thoughtfully provided local recommendations and crockery so we could do something ourselves. And a good coffee machine :)
• Jodie (9/5): Beautiful property. Amazing host. Spotlessly clean. Great value for money. We will be back! - We loved the property. Absolutely stunning. Well decorated, spotlessly clean. Everything you could need. The only thing we could find that we didn’t like was the strange smell that came from the shower cubicle. Strangely though it would disappear when you run the shower for a short time. It still wouldn’t put us off of a return visit.
• Charlotte (10/5): Thank you both for a very pleasant stay. You were so accommodating and welcoming. -
• Simon (8/5): Excellent, clean and tidy rooms, great restaurant and bar downstairs. - Clean, tidy, fully functional. Bit if a noise issue from the second room. Laminate floorings not great for acoustics, but it was more the actual guests in the second room as opposed to a problem with the rooms.
• Roger (9/5): Superb - Breakfast not offered All fine. Continental breakfast available would have been good.
• Jujules (9/5): Superb - Friendly greeting. I wanted peace and quiet and that was what I got. A small but adequate room with a lovely comfy bed and superb shower. Room was a bit warm and I could not open the window enough. I didn't realise the pub was shut until the day (Monday) so no food available and nothing local. No hair dryer.
• Andrea (10/5): Very comfortable and luxurious - So much space! An amazing apartment which even had an outdoor area.
• Sixte (10/5): Exceptional - Everything
• Ilaria (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gabor (10/5): Great location, close to the shore, comfy bed, dog friendly, great restaurant downstairs. - Great location, close to the shore, comfy bed, dog friendly, great restaurant downstairs. Everything was great.
• Jodie (9/5): Clean comfortable charming Cove stay. Thank you 🐾 - Beautiful apartment, photos doesn’t do it justice. Modern clean and very comfy. Netflix, balcony bar downstairs and extremely kind and helpful staff. We had food from the bar on our balcony and our dogs were made to feel very welcome. The owners are wonderful and so accommodating for all our needs. Only small feedback I can say is it would be wonderful to have a breakfast hamper. I would have paid extra for this say £40 so we could have had toast cheese and orange juice. We drove into hasting tesco to grab some bits but it is a few miles away. Sadly only other thing is 6.30am bank holiday Monday all woken up to bottles being thrown into recycling. Our dogs barking lots from this so early also and others were staying. I would think at least after 9am weekends for such loud noise. Having said this I would happily stay again
• Carole (9/5): Superb - Superb property, lovely host and restaurant downstairs added bonus. Lovely walks directly from property
• Holly (9/5): Would love to stay here again! - The Fairlight cove was such a great place to stay! The staff were so friendly and accommodating for my family and our dog! The room was so spacious and clean! Very modern design & lovely amenities. The bathroom was gorgeous!! The bed covers on the bunk beds were a little rough as there was so duvet covers but that's the only thing I could fault!
• Pham (9/5): Olivia is a really wonderful hostess! Amazing communication and very accommodating. I had some fresh, cooled water and f - Such a stunning room and loved the spot it was in! There’s a nice walk nearby along the sea with beautiful scenery. The room smelt devine and the bed was so comfortable! I also loved all the available lighting in the room - they were easily accessible and in really convenient spots. The images on the website showed the larger apartment with the terrace that was next door as well as this room, but I didn’t realise I was just getting the small room. I should have assumed with the price, but didn’t realise the images are advertising two separate rooms.
• Dominic (10/5): Exceptional - An excellent suite that is a good size, comfy and clean. Olivia is a brilliant host and the restaurant provides delicious food and drink.
• Ben (10/5): Exceptional - A wonderfully decorated and super comfy suite above a gorgeous pub restaurant, I couldn’t fault anything, lovely hosts, amazing food & drinks.
