San Mirail is one of only a few precious remaining Spanish-inspired villas in Bexhill (see also [[La Casa Blanca, 13 Elmstead Road]] and [[Cordova, 63 South Cliff]]) and is a very good example of this genre with roundel turrets and a red clay pantile roof. The five bedroom residence has five bedrooms, a grand galleried reception hall, drawing room, dining room and sun terraces to the rear. The villa is set within nearly 0.3 acres of Mediterranean-inspired, south facing gardens.
