Ideal for families and couples looking for a seaside retreat, the cottage boasts unrivalled access to the beautiful beachfront and is only a short walk from the village of Selsey in West Sussex. Enclosed garden area with patio furniture and parking for one car.
Pirates Point is a newly furnished Grade II listed holiday cottage situated on the beachfront of Selsey in West Sussex. The 18th century cottage can be found down a secluded lane on the end of a row of terraced cottages that were originally built for the village coastguards.
My property sleeps up to 4 guests and is located just a short walk from Selsey High Street.
Ground Floor
Entrance porch leads into the kitchen with stairs up to the first floor.
The large kitchen is a traditional farmhouse kitchen with a dining table seating up to 4 guests. Use of appliances includes an oven, electric hob, fridge and freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. Smaller appliances include a microwave, kettle and toaster.
The cosy sitting room has a large comfortable sofa, arm chair and a smart TV (you will need to use your own log in details to access the apps) and DVD player.
Upstairs you will find two beautifully furnished bedrooms (one king and one double) with lovely views over the surrounding farmland and sea. Both bedrooms have plenty of storage space with wardrobes and chests of drawers. The main bathroom is between the two bedrooms (up a few extra steps) with a bath with hand shower, WC and basin.
There is also a WC and shower room outside for washing off the sea and sand after a day spent on the beach. A lovely base to explore the local area, Pirate’s Point is also perfect for those looking to sit back and unwind in the cosy sitting room or out on the sun-drenched patio.
Parking is available for one car, beside the cottage.
There will be some complimentary tea, coffee and biscuits waiting for you which I am sure will be welcome for those arriving after a long journey!
Fresh white bedding and towels are provided (hand towel and bath towel per person), as well as miniature travel sized bottles of shampoo, shower gel and soap. Other items provided during your stay are a washing-up pack, loo roll and kitchen roll. These should last a couple of days. If more is needed, there is a local convenience store on the High Street.
Guests have access to the whole property. Access to the cottage is down a private gravel road, and there is space for one car beside the cottage. Access to the cottage is through the archway and the front door is the first porch door.

Sarah Tampion-Lacey 20/03/2025I liked: Absolutely stunning location with beautiful views over a field to the sea. The beach is so close, and the outdoor room and seating area are fantastic for watching the sunsets. We found everything we needed in the kitchen, the lounge was very cosy and the bed very comfortable. We would have liked to have a shower but understand that there isn't room for one in the bathroom. Being able to park the car next to the cottage was great. There are lots of shops, restaurants and pubs within a 15 min walk. Summary: Beautiful cottage in a stunning location. ...
