    There were 8 of us staying in this wonderful house - it is very comfortable and well appointed with everything you could possibly need. It also has a great terrace and lovely garden. We could find no fault

    I stayed at Lewes Heights with my bridal party in prep for my wedding in Firle. It was the perfect set up for hair/makeup on the day, and a chilled dinner with drinks the night before. The outside table was kindly set up for our arrival and Alex/Gabrielle were very helpful from start to finish! Would recommend for any gathering/get together, and would definitely recommend for wedding preparations in Lewes/the surrounding areas.

    Excellent house of the highest quality in a great location. Benefits of town and country only a few paces away. Alex had thought of everything from large fluffy bath towels to folded linen napkins - the place settings for our first meal were even in position. Family joined us for the weekend as the house is so spacious. Alex also checked in after arrival to make sure we had everything we needed. He is the perfect host.

    Lewes Heights is a lovely house more than we expected with lovely added touches. It was well situated although the walk up the hills back were a bit of a challenge, we are all fitter now. We would recommend this property to anyone wanting to visit Lewes. The owners were very informative and accommodating. Altogether a lovely break with great friends.

    The house is located in an excellent neighborhood, with spectacular views of the surrounding countryside and access to public grounds that enabled us to have wonderful walks when not otherwise busy. The walk to town is on a pleasant route that we loved. The house itself is very stylish and comfortable (exactly as described although even better), the garden is a delight, and the hosts were caring and communicative. We ate quite a few meals at home; the kitchen lends itself to cooking and serving. We enjoyed the gas fire, one of us had business calls and work and appreciated the separate study at the end of the garden. The children reveled in the books and puzzles and the adults found reading that made us want to stay longer. We have been coming to Lewes for years during Glyndebourne season and all agreed that we have just found a jewel.

    The house was perfect for us, everything we needed. Only sorry it was just a 2 day stay for a wedding. Will definitely consider this property in future.

    We really enjoyed our short break at Lewes Heights last weekend. The house exceeded our expectations, it is beautifully furnished and includes lots of thoughtful extras such as store cupboard ingredients in the kitchen, lovely toiletries, well stocked book shelves and tea lights for added atmosphere in the evenings. Several of our party were particularly impressed with the super comfy beds and top quality bed linen. The property is ideally located to access the South Downs, we walked from the house to Ditching and we also visited Lewes and Brighton. The weather was glorious during our stay and we made full use of the delightful garden and patio area and were glad of the use of the parasol! We only wished we could have stayed for longer, thank you Alex and Gabrielle.
