Behind, a dramatic backdrop unfolds – the South Downs cradle it in nature, while the iconic Roedean School adds fairytale romance & Harry Potter magic. South-facing, it has its own microclimate – any sunny day is beautiful! The beach is a short stroll away – just follow the sea view. The Roedean Café is hidden in the golf course ahead. The closest beach is often deserted - feels like a local secret!

The Wave Watcher offers a stay with soul – a rare survivor of Brighton’s maritime past.
