Gorgeous 'Alice in Wonderland' Cottage in the Lanes, Brighton Pier/Seafront

Had the most wonderful weekend, the property was beautiful and spotlessly clean and great communication with the owner. Thankyou for the chocolates and wine it was very much appreciated after our 6 hour journey from the midlands.

A really fun place to stay and right in the middle of things. Very happy with the place. My only complaint is that one of the rooms (the one with the larger bed) is very tight with the bed literally filling the room from edge-to-edge. So if you're over five foot ten or so, and you're sharing with someone, it'll be tight. This was not an issue for our group. It also got pretty hot in the top rooms, but opening the windows really did the trick. I was worried the location would be too loud, but it was very reasonable. We had a truly fabulous time there and would 100% stay there again.

Very disapointed on entering the property to find how small it was and tbere was a distinct smell of smoke even though its supposed to be non smoking. The owners of this property suggest that it sleeps up to 8 people however there is not enough room downstairs for more than 4 people to sit. Everything in the cottage is cute & quirky but it is very tired and grubby. The sofa beds are so uncomfortable that you can hardly sit let alone sleep on them. The bed linen that was provided all had stains and looked very unsanitary and barely fit for use. On a possitive note the cottage is in a fantastic location for access to the best parts of the town however this does make it very noisy. The pubs either side do not switch their music off until gone midnight and then are making more noise by 5am by shifting bins and emptying bottles. We love Brighton but will not be returning to this accomodation.

Quirky and unique in a perfect location.

Enjoyable stay in brighton

We made ourselves at home very quickly taking it in turns to do the Costa run and revelling in being in The Lanes themselves. It’s down one of this tiny passages luring you into their mysteries and history of old fishing village days. The outside area at the back of the cottage is delightful. Fairy lights add to its charm and teeny weeny working bathroom with little sink. Upstairs we adored the luxury walk in shower and three bedrooms with hairdryers provided. The telly is modern and geared up for Netflix (hurrah). The fridge and toaster and stove were part of the open plan but cosy and warm ground floor but hardly used due to the incredible choice of restaurants in The Lanes and on the equally nearby seafront. We stayed over a weekend so we were close to the revellers and music from the nearby pub. None of this was too loud and the Black Lion itself did a wonderful early supper for us. Lovely staff and fantastic music from the Aretha era. Some of the young people walking down the alley past the front door knocked out door but we just ignored and realised they were just being silly but if you were staying there alone that could be scary as there is no peephole but we slept feeling safe there. Would recommend to all and the main lady who we spoke to on booking was amazing. She answered promptly when I called regarding arrival time, knew who I was instantly and made it very clear in a very friendly way she would be there to ring any time at all. Enjoy if you go. I know you will.

The looking glass cottage is very unique and the theme is carefully thought out throughout the house. The location is great, close to the beach and pier and close to the lanes, restaurants and shops. The bedrooms are comfortable and the rest of the house is homely. We had a lovely stay here.
