✨ Last minute summer escape by the sea ✨

Available 20th to 27th July 2026. Spend a week at one of West Wittering’s most extraordinary coastal homes.

Designed by renowned architect Timothy Hatton, Driftline seamlessly incorporates two restored 1880s train carriages into its unique design.

Today, this one of a kind seaside retreat is made for unforgettable family escapes, with direct beach access, a private bar crafted from a former railway carriage, beachside fire pit, sauna, hot tub, outdoor shower, and beautifully considered spaces to gather, relax and reconnect.

Sleeping 12 guests, and welcoming beloved pets too 🐾, Driftline is the perfect place for long summer days by the sea and evenings spent watching the sun set over the water.

Was £12,000, now £7,250 for 20th to 27th July 2026.

A little behind-the-scenes glimpse of our shoot at Hazelbrook Estate yesterday ✨

From the House, Cottage and Barn to the breathtaking grounds beyond, every corner looked impossibly beautiful beneath soft dappled light, blue skies and those dramatic Sussex clouds we know and love.

Between torrential downpours, we somehow caught the most magical pockets of sunshine, the kind that make the gardens glow and the countryside feel completely still.

Hazelbrook Estate is now live on our website and available to book for unforgettable countryside escapes, celebrations and gatherings. We can’t wait to share the final imagery with you soon, but for now, here’s a little taste of this very special place. 🌿
