Fantastic Property

Amazing house, comfortable and with everything we needed. It does have steep quirky steps to get upstairs but this was part of its charm! Barn was also excellent. Jonathan was very helpful and accommodating for our needs. The gardens were also wonderful.

Wonderful country retreat

Had a lovely 5 days at this beautiful house, which is perfectly situated to explore West Sussex. We loved the character of the buildings as well as the pool and it was great fun looking after the chickens. Lots of space outside and very well equipped in the kitchen.

The accommodation is very beautiful, with a fabulous garden. The location is great, lots to see and do. The local pubs and restaurants cater for all tastes.There's a local farmer's market at the weekend, lots of antique shops, many beautiful walks and several beaches to choose from.Jonathan was very welcoming and left lots of food, wine and bathroom necessities for all of us (including our dogs). His Garden is absolutely beautiful, our dogs explored and enjoyed it every day.Thank you so much, Jonathan, for everything.

We stayed here recently because our daughter was getting married locally. The house is a beautiful, characterful property, in an idyllic setting. There is everything you could need for a perfect stay here; from fully equipped kitchens in the main house and Barn to extremely comfortable beds. The owner; Jonathan, could not have been more helpful, communication was excellent and he even left us some food supplies and wine. Petworth is a lovely, interesting town and well worth a walk around, with several cafes and a co-op if needed. We wish we could have stayed longer!

Absolutely Beautiful

Jonathan is the perfect host. The property has old world charm with modern cons that blend well. Jonathan has preserved the 16th century character which made this property special for us. Our family of 3 generations from Australia absolutely loved it. We would 100% recommend it and hope to visit again. Thanks Jonathan for your hospitality & allowing us to experience your beautiful property.

All of us loved, loved, loved Jonathan's beautiful home. The photos do not do justice to just how gorgeous this property and garden is. There are no immediate neighbours and its down a private lane. On the doorstep of such beautiful places to visit. Jonathan was a top host both in greeting us and showing us around, and being so flexible with our requests. He left drinks and food for us on arrival and made us feel very welcome. We would not hesitate to book this for any future family get-aways.

A wonderful Christmas

A wonderfully characterful property in a superb setting . It was the perfect place for our family Christmas - out of a film set. Jonathan was a brilliant and caring host who was available for anything we needed from the booking process until our departure...he was especially helpful with the supply of new high chairs , cots and even a baby gate ..top quality care and attention. Petworth specifically and the South Downs generally make for a beautiful location for venturing out from this lovely property .

Charming cottage with luxurious comforts

The 16c house is quaint with sloping walls and floors, original beams and inglenook fireplaces. Sympathetically renovated with lovely quality finishing. The garden pretty, with lots of spring bulbs emerging and colourful chickens in a stable supplying fresh, warm eggs. Jonathan was the perfect host - attentive, thoughtful and generous. I used the pool, as yet unheated, for invigorating cold water dips, thawing out in a lovely, hot roll-top bath after with a view of the trees. Plentiful dog towels, a drawer full of dog treats and special shampoo should the need arise, very reassuring knowing Jonathan understands the needs of a holidaying dog owner so well! Great place to walk too, loads of footpaths, literally outside the gate, and the lovely Petworth for coffee and culture too.
