THE PROPERTY:
Cleve Cottage is a delightful two-bedroom cottage combining charm, style and practicality. Located in a residential neighbourhood just a short stroll from the bustling high street, it's a great choice for couples and families looking for a restful break with access to local heritage and the scenic South Downs. Cleve Cottage is listed here by Inspire Stays, the premier independent holiday company in the South East. Visit for full info about this home, including accessibility, a video tour and floor plan.
The interior exudes a welcoming and tasteful vibe, with stylish modern touches. The open-plan lounge offers comfortable seating and a Smart TV, while the dining space is ideal for relaxed meals. The adjoining kitchen is sleek and well-equipped, complete with a breakfast table.
Upstairs, Bedroom One features a king-size bed, and Bedroom Two offers a single bed with a pull-out to make a 180cm side-by-side twin for bookings with four guests. Both have a dressing table/desk for remote working. The bathroom offers a walk-in shower and is a stylish and pretty space to freshen up.
Outside, the private back garden offers rustic charm with herb planters and bench seating, perfect for morning coffee or a BBQ. It's fully enclosed for peace of mind and includes a small bike shed for one bike. See the Useful information and house rules section, or visit for important details about this home.

USEFUL INFORMATION & HOUSE RULES:
- Cleve Cottage is listed here by inspirestays-com, the leading Sussex holiday specialists. Visit for full info about this home.
- Pets: sorry not allowed.
- Search and contact us for stays over 21 nights (we cannot administrate these via this platform).
- A security deposit of GBP200 is a condition of booking, if not taken by this platform we will contact you after booking to arrange.
- Once you have placed your booking request, before we can process your booking we will require some simple additional information such as postal address, direct email and guest details. Please do not book if you are unable to provide this, as we cannot offer a refund on this basis.
- Arrival and departure times are clearly stated. As our properties can be booked right up until the last minute, we are unable to confirm early check-in or late check-out requests until 24-72 hours prior to your arrival/departure. Should you prefer to guarantee any such request now, please add an additional night to the start and/or end of your booking.
- Top tip: Adding another night or two may only cost a little extra, or sometimes nothing at all! This is a great way to add some flexibility to your stay (please let us know if you plan to arrive the day after your start date).
- While Cleve Cottage is set on a quiet residential road, there is a primary school located just behind house so there may be increased family noise at drop-off and pick-up times (but school traffic is not allowed access to the road at these times), and some sounds of playtime during term.

- The third storey of the house is closed to guests and access is not permitted. A tall safety gate is fitted to prevent curious little ones from exploring.
- One infant up to age 2 is welcome in addition to the total guest capacity. 1 travel cot (please bring bedding) and 1 highchair are available on advance request.
- Visitor permits for one car are provided for each full day of your stay (excluding Sundays when local parking is free), allowing free on-street parking in the nearby roads.

Thank you for the most wonderful 4 night stay. Such a beautifully presented cottage in a great location. We explored Lewes, Birling Gap and took a train to Brighton for the day. The cottage served as the perfect retreat at the end of a winter's day. We look forward to returning in the future.

A beautifully presented cottage that served as an idyllic retreat with its cosy interior and convenient location for exploring both Lewes and the surrounding area. We visited Birling Gap by car and Brighton by train. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful weekend at Cleve Cottage! The house is so beautifully decorated, it felt like staying in a boutique hotel but with all the comforts of home. Positioned in the prettiest part of Lewes and within walking distance of the high street and train station we could not fault the location, ...
