The place was amazing, such a lovely place to stay in and plenty of space for us. Just a very short walk to the beach and being able to see the sea from the living room was lovely. Would love to come back.
We had a lovely stay at Seagulls seeing in 2026. The house was full of character, well equipped, spacious clean and tidy. The secure garden was ideal for the dogs. The log fire was nice and extra blankets very thoughtful. Beds were cosy and comfy too. Being a stones throw from the beach was brilliant. We'd definitely stay again.
We had a wonderful stay at Seagulls. Very spacious clean property with a lovely secure wraparound garden which was perfect for our dogs! Location near the beach was great. Pubs within walking distance was a bonus. Great host who responded very quickly to any queries.
Seagulls was wonderfully clean, well equipped and quirky! It was perfect for our family with young children - they particularly enjoyed the garden space. A lovely big cake was waiting for us and great communication with the hosts. Thank you for a great holiday!
Converted railway carriages for our bedrooms and a comfortable lounge area upstairs with views of the sea made this a fabulous venue to stay with our family to celebrate our Golden Wedding anniversary. Beach and amenities all close and the secluded garden made for a perfect weekend.
Unique property so close to the pebble beach and children's playground with a garden perfect for our children to explore. Excellent owners who kept us up to date on everything.
We had a wonderful stay at Seagulls - Shaun and Russell went the extra mile to ensure our stay had every home comfort. We will definitely be recommending to our family and friends x
We had a wonderful stay at Seagulls - the cottage was spotless, well-equipped and very comfortable. Selsey itself is peaceful with a beach within a two-minute walk. Highly recommended!
A fantastic property. We all loved the style and quirkiness. Lovely too to be so close to the beach and have the seaview from upstairs. We'll hopefully return soon.
Had a wonderful stay at Seagulls. Perfect location for the family and dogs and would go back again in a heartbeat. Shaun was a fantastic hosts and had great communication. The homemade cake when we arrived was such a wonderful touch! Thank you for a great break away.
Seagulls is a cottage full of charm and character. It’s very comfortable with great facilities and in a great location to explore the coast. The hosts made the booking and arrival very easy with a delicious cake ready to welcome us. Would thoroughly recommend and look forward to visiting again.
Long weekend trip here, very homely, and everything you needed was to hand. Fantastic character property, enclosed gardens, sea view from the upstairs living room(which we loved being upstairs) great communication from the hosts, absolutely nothing to grumble about. We will be back!
Six in total, grandson, parents and grandparents plus dog.
A fabulous week in one of the best cottages we’ve stayed in. Lovely sun trap garden too. All just steps from the beach.
We couldn’t have asked for more and will definitely recommend it to others.
Property worked perfectly for a long weekend at Goodwood. 6 x adults, 2 x kids & 1 x dog making Seagulls everything we needed with outside space, plenty of parking and a stones throw from the beach. We will be back!
This has to be the best UK holiday accommodation I have stayed in. It is the most beautifully converted railway carriages into a charming and tasteful cottage. So close to the sea all you have to do is walk across the road. Very nice pub within walking distance. The hosts are so easy to deal with and the welcome treat was delicious. Will defo go again!
Lovely stay at this quirky house - everything we needed was there including tea coffee and milk and a yummy cake which was very welcoming when we arrived. Great to able to just walk over to the beach as it was so near and good location for Chichester and Bognor. The Piggery was nice for a lunch and the Broadway cafe in Selsey did a fantastic breakfast.
We had a wonderful trip in october half tern and we really lucked out with the weather as it was nice and warm and the kids enjoyed the beach and getting wet! The house was ideal with plenty of space for 3 adults. The owners had excellent communication and responded to any messages very quickly and the cake they provided qas a lovely touch
We had two very nice week in Selsey and feld very welcome. With a lots of relaxing, swimming in the sea (take some water schoes to avoid the gravel at the beach), sightseeing, fine cooking and some hiking, we had a very good time. Thank you Shaun, for sharing seagulls
