About this house rental

Looney Dunes is our own family holiday home - perfectly located right in the heart of the popular seaside resort of Camber Sands. Despite being just a moment's stroll from the famous 2-mile stretch of beach and its best bars and restaurants, the house enjoys peace and quiet even on the busiest of Summer days. With views of the sand dunes from the sunny south-facing back garden and upstairs bedrooms, it really is a fabulous place to take a holiday. Since we come on holiday here ourselves, the house is very well equipped. Pretty much everything you might need has been thought of. In addition to the usual facilities that you might expect to find, you'll be in for a treat with original artworks, a whole wall of books in the living room (over 1,000 at the last count), a vintage Bang & Olufsen hifi system (with turntable and our record collection), a heap of board games, XBox360 (plus games) and loads of children's DVDs and movies to keep them entertained whilst you're enjoying a drink in the back garden - a total suntrap - watching the butterflies or the sun setting. The house is centrally heated throughout and enjoys a reliable superfast broadband connection through BT Infinity 2 at around 60 Mbps. Looney Dunes has 3 bedrooms and sleeps 4 adults and 2 children - one master bedroom with a double bed, another main bedroom arranged either as two singles or joined together as a king-size double and a kids' bedroom with 2 full-size bunk beds. The two south-facing bedrooms enjoy views of the sand dunes. In the spacious family bathroom (no bath) there is a spacious shower cubicle with power shower, much the best way to clean away all the fine sand that you bring back from the long day at the beach! There is plenty of room downstairs too. The house has a living room with French doors that open out fully onto a patio area with a lawn and flower beds beyond, plus floor-to-ceiling bookshelves along the entire length of one wall; a conservatory with dining table and chairs; a fully-equipped kitchen with separate larder; and a downstairs WC and porch area for storage. The gardens must be our favourite part of this property. The south-facing back garden is the proverbial stone's throw from the sand dunes and is made up of a patio area and a flat lawn surrounded by shrubs and flowers on three sides (and populated by many species of butterfly throughout the long summer days). The garden is fenced all around and is fully enclosed. A high privet hedge in the front garden provides privacy from the cul-de-sac (so no passing traffic) and creates a natural goal for any penalty shoot out! This garden is also very sunny and provides off-street parking for 2 cars (3 at a pinch). Here are the main details about the property: Enclosed entrance porch - for all your coats, shoes, wellies, buckets and spades... Hallway - with 3 under stairs cupboards; one converted into a larder with freezer and microwave; one containing an iron, ironing board, clothes horse, Miele vacuum cleaner; and one crammed full of kid's toys, masses of Lego, etc... Downstairs WC Living Room - 3-seater sofa; armchair; rocking chair; original artworks; floor-to-ceiling bookshelves along the entire length of one wall with over 1,000 books; Xbox 360 with games; loads of adult and kids' DVDs; board games; 1970's B&O hifi system (turntable/tuner/amplifier) with smartphone connections that allow you to play your own music through our vintage floorstanding speakers; French doors that open out fully onto the patio area of the back garden... Galley Kitchen - fridge, freezer, electric cooker with hob, grill and oven, extractor fan, washer dryer, plenty of cupboards, toaster, kettle, Nespresso coffee machine, milk frother, plenty of crockery, cutlery, glassware and cookware, plus food basics (herbs, spices, condiments, etc)... Door to: Conservatory - with dining table and chairs, highchair (on request), blinds, door to back garden... Back Garden - south-facing and a real sun trap, with views of the tops of the sand dunes, totally enclosed, secure, safe, an oasis of peace and quiet even on the busiest of Summer days; outdoor table and chairs for alfresco dining; barbecue; sunloungers to help top up the tan; a shed full of beach paraphernalia like boules, buckets and spades, etc; and an outside tap too... Stairs to: Landing - with airing cupboard (the property is centrally heated and so is warm and cosy in the winter months too), stairgate (if required)... Bedroom 1 - double bed with sumptuous sprung mattress; wardrobe with full-length mirror; bedside tables with lamps; room for a cot (a travel cot is available on request, meaning that the house can comfortably sleep 4 adults, 2 children and a baby)... Bedroom 2 - orthopaedic, adjustable, divan beds can either be arranged as 2 singles or fixed together as a kingsize double; wardrobe with full-length mirror; bedside tables with lamps; large window with wooden blinds and views to the dunes... Bedroom 3 - full-size bunk beds for 2 kids; wardrobe; small chest of drawers... Family Bathroom - includes a walk-in shower cubicle with power shower (no bath)...

We had a lovely 7 day stay here. I could not believe how well equipped the house is. There is everything you could possibly want or need. Thank you so much Chris and Jenny we will definitely be back in the future.

"Looney Dunes" is lovely property and was perfect for our weekend break at Camber Sands. My little four year old loved the games in the living room and the books in the kids bedroom were a lovely touch. The property is in a fantastic location right by the beach and we had some great food at the local cafes/restaurants that were also just a short stroll away. We arrived later than expected but it wasn't an issue at all. The communication with Chris was fab and he was very accommodating! We hope to visit again in the near future!

We had a great time + we got way more than expected. We - family of five - wanted a beach, a house and some calmness. We got it all and in addition all kind of toys for the beach/the garden/inside + Prime + Xbox + cool Books. In addition, the hosts Chris & Jenny are also very nice. Regarding the location Cambers / Ray = nice beach, windy (English coast), great fresh fish shops, a nice playground for kids nearby, a lot of locals (not only tourists)

Fantastic House by the beach

Chris made sure the house was perfect for our arrival. It has everything you need for your family. It’s the prefect little simple beach retreat near the wonderful Camber sands only minutes away! Couldn’t recommend it more. The beach stuff for the kids and beach towels were brilliant and helpful, the honesty “I forgot something” at the supermarket cupboard is a brilliant idea. The kids loved the garden and the sofa in the lounge and great to have a drive for parking! Great stay and great host!

We spent the most wonderful May bank holiday at Looney Dunes. Chris was very communicative from the outset and went out of his way to make sure we had all the provisions and information we needed from the outset. After a slight oversight (on our part) around check in times he and his housekeeper were very accommodating and understanding. The house was perfect as a little bolthole for enjoying the Bank Holiday break for our family of 5 and 2 x dogs. Everything was pristine, the welcome pack was delicious and a lovely personal touch with home-baked goodies and it was perfectly located within a stones throw of shops, eateries, a park and of course the dunes and beach. Wonderful, thanks Chris and Jenny!

Lovely welcome by Chris at arrival. Thanks a lot, Chris! Everything you need was in the house. We had a late arrival, but to our delight Chris had prepared fresh baked bread and cookies among others amenities. :-) The house had enough space for the four of us and we enjoyed the week in Camber immensly.

Ideaal vakantiehuisje!
Ideaal vakantiehuisje!
We werden hartelijk ontvangen door Chris & Jenny en kregen alle uitleg die we nodig hadden. Het huis was op alles voorzien (bedankt voor het welkomspakket!) en voor de kinderen was het ook fantastisch om alles te ontdekken (Lego, Thomas de trein-set, buitenspeelgoed, strandspeeltjes, dvd's,...). Alle kamers zijn smaakvol en gezellig ingericht. In de keuken is alles aanwezig wat we nodig hadden. Een goeie uitvalsbasis om de regio te ontdekken én ideaal gelegen om na een daguitstap nog af te koelen in de zee of een zandkasteel te maken in de prachtige duinen. We hadden een supervakantie! :)

Uns hat der Urlaub in diesem Ferienhaus gut gefallen. Wir wurden herzlich von den Vermietern empfangen und haben uns in der Unterkunft gleich wohl gefühlt. Das Ferienhaus ist genauso wie beschrieben und damit für Familien besonders geeignet. Den sehr schönen Strand erreicht man über eine hohe Düne, von der man einen tollen Blick über den Strand und den Ort hat.
