A bright two-bedroom flat on the fourth floor (lift ) of a central seafront block for two/three adults or a family (5) with children, situated only 100 yards from the beach.
The Wilton Flat is situated on Bexhill’s central seafront only one minute away from the resort’s main shopping area and a hundred yards from the beach. Walking west along the promenade past the famous De La Warr Pavilion leads to Cooden, while to the east is Galley Hill, with its adjoining Common, and Glyne Gap (Ravenside) leisure complex.
The flat is located on the fourth floor of a large traditional seafront block, one of Bexhill’s landmarks, and is accessed (through the main entrance door of the building) by lift to the third floor with easy stairs to the next level. A standard ‘speak and press’ entry system at the main entrance is linked to the flat to ensure security.
The sitting room, containing also a dining table and chairs, is furnished with comfortable seating. It includes a colour TV (with Freeview - also free channels on Astra Plus for German TV) and DVD player and offers a sidelong view over the sea from its large bay window.
The main bedroom comprises a king size and a single bed, with units, and ample wardrobe space is located separately in the hallway. The second (small) bedroom has full length bunk beds (pine) and, therefore, the Wilton Flat is ideal for 2/3 adults or a family with up to three children.
A normal range of cooking utensils, plus cutlery and crockery for up to five persons, is available in the newly refurbished kitchen, which is fitted with a number of attractive functional cupboard units. The equipment includes a built in electric single oven (with grill) and hob, a built in refrigerator with freezing compartment, a microwave, toaster and kettle. The kitchen houses a modern wall-mounted gas boiler, too, which provides central heating to all rooms and, of course, hot water.
A bathroom (bath with shower mixer and curtain), a separate WC, and an airing cupboard completes the apartment, which is close-carpeted and centrally heated throughout. Most windows are double-glazed and the accommodation overall is bright and cosy - and eminently attractive for holidays. The property is fully furnished and equipped. All bedding (duvets) and the set of bed linen specified when booking is included for a holiday rental. Personal towels and additional/change of bed linen can be hired separately (see Extras tariff).
Childen/Pets: Children of all ages are welcome but, sorry, no pets.
The Wilton Flat’s close proximity to the beach and shops will make this apartment a popular choice for holidaymakers. There is free, unrestricted parking on the seafront nearby for those with cars (unrestricted, too, from 6pm - 8am in the road which flanks the main entrance); and restaurants on the ground floor of the block offer attractive holiday wining alternatives. Proverbially, everything needed is on the doorstep.
