Places of interest

    You can be sure of a warm welcome at our branch at 71a Church Road, Hove and at our Head Office in Worthing. We, Callaways Estate & Lettings Agents, in Hove and Worthing, have a core vision to ‘deliver amazing customer service by loving what we do’. This may sound cliche, but our Sales and Lettings teams love living and working in Brighton & Hove. A huge part of delivering this vision is driven by our fantastic property teams who wholeheartedly engage in this very powerful principle. Heather moved to Woodingdean, Brighton from Kilmarnock in Ayrshire, Scotland at the age of 11 years old. She spent only a few months at Rudyard Kipling Junior School, sitting the 11+ exam some months after her classmates. Heather enjoyed her time from 1966 to 1973 at Varndean School for Girls in Brighton, then moved on to Brighton Technical College to study for a one year course learning secretarial skills including taking shorthand in French and German. These skills proved very useful for positions in France and Belgium in international companies. Although now living in WORTHING, Heather divides her time between Worthing Head Office and Callaways’ Hove branch working with the sales, lettings and property management teams. Why we Love Brighton & Hove We all agree at Callaways that Brighton & Hove has so much to offer its residents and visitors – city by the sea, culture, shops, bars and restaurants offering a multitude of dishes, cinemas, museums and theatres. We also have a lovely stretch of the promenade with its colourful beach huts. Seafront, Brighton pier, i360, and of course, close to hand, our glorious Sussex countryside, pubs, walks, bridleways, golf courses – what’s not to like. We have an assortment of nursery, primary and secondary schools throughout the City. Our Family-Friendly ethos Callaways have had their home in Church Road, Hove since 1935. Here we are – 2023 and we’re as busy as ever, with sales of houses, flats and beach huts, lettings and property management. We are passionate about what we do and our independence means we can push forward on new ideas quickly. We want our customers to feel valued and cared for – whether on the phone, in person, or in correspondence. Our personal approach is honest whilst our ‘family-friendly’ ethos pervades all we do. You’d be forgiven for thinking that we deliver ‘management-driven’ customer service – our teams have personally contributed to our Customer Service Charter, recognising that delivery has to come from their hearts and souls, not from a corporate directive. We have recently begun a major programme of improvements across our business covering service provision, accounts, property marketing and communication. We’re fully embracing Proptech with software to improve efficiency for our teams, clients and tenants. You’ll find us warm, friendly, respectful, willing to listen, and engagingly cooperative. Our customers are highly discerning, and they wouldn’t expect anything but the best! Read more about why you should choose us. What we do We sell homes, apartments and beach huts in Brighton & Hove. Our Lettings and Property Management teams can advise on Assured Shorthold Tenancy or Company Lets. We have the experience and many satisfied property owners to vouch for us. Recognised by industry leaders with our multiple awards winning services, we look forward to welcoming you through our doors at 71a Church Road, Hove or Yeoman Way, Worthing.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
