It was a delight to hear the wildlife, and nothing else (!), during my stay at The Hideaway. - Quite refreshing. The accommodation has all one needs, but the emphasis has to be towards the “outdoors”, the tranquillity it offers and marvellous views of the countryside. Walks galore on your doorstep, or just find a spot to sit and take it all in. Well worth a visit.

Fitted perfectly
I needed somewhere clean and tidy just for a couple of nights as I was working in Petworth, the hideaway fitted the bill perfectly and it was nice to come back to a hot shower and larger sofas to sprawl out and catch up on TV. Oliver was very accommodating as I arrived late in the evening but as everything was all as I expected I didn’t need to trouble him again.
The next time I need somewhere for a short stay I won’t bother looking around, I’ll just go straight back to the Hideaway ….. if I am lucky enough to find it available
