Glorious Goodwood
Exactly as described, well stocked kitchen. Weather meant we weren't able to take advantage of the garden at all and very convenient for Goodwood racing. Local area good for walking and pub nearby.
Cosy and beautifully furnished cottage, a short drive from the wonderful West Dean Gardens and not far from Arundel Castle as well as the sea.
We enjoyed the small garden.
Highly recommended!
