Excellent stay. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed. The owners were so lovely and their home cooked breakfast was delicious! The property is central to everything and so many options near the property to eat! Rye beach is at the end of the road! Although the weather was a mixed bag we absolutely loved our stay! Thank you boys! We absolutely loved our stay and would gladly stay again!

Loved everything about Brightonwave. Richard and Simon are amazing hosts, so helpful and friendly. The room was perfect, very clean and everything you needed was supplied. The breakfast is amazing, blueberry pancakes and scrambled eggs and salmon were my two favourites but everything looked delicious. The Brightonwave is in a great location. Couldn't have been happier with our stay. We would certainly stay here on our next visit
