About this property
Beautiful cosy Rosebud Cottage in picturesque Steyning
When you arrive you can enjoy cake and all you need for a cup of tea or coffee.. You'll also find freshly picked flowers from the garden.
Curl up on the comfy sofa or sit outside and relax: in the beautiful garden: You'll hear the bubbling mill stream which runs close by!
You will be only a couple of minutes walk from independently run shops, pubs, and restaurants. Country footpaths are also just a stone's throw away.
The local coast and Brighton are easy to access by car or public transport and Gatwick is a 40 minute drive. The cottage is a perfect base for exploring Sussex and the South Downs National Park with its historic towns, castles, vineyards and incredible gardens.
Free parking in the street.
The bathroom is on the ground floor. The stairs are fairly steep (typical of a property of this age) but have a hand rail.

About the host
Hosted by Jennifer Wilkes
I love letting out my cottage and do all I can to ensure guests have an enjoyable time. I take great pride in my cottage garden which is full of flowering plants - an ideal place to relax outside ..
I was born and grew in West Sussex not far from my cottage. I spent most of my working life teaching in adult education. Now my main job is running my cottage which I really enjoy.

Why they chose this property
The location could not have been better. Near the village centre with great shops, pubs, marvellous cafes and restaurants yet a short distance from country footpaths.
The cottage itself was just what I wanted - light & bright with plenty of character. It also had a second bedroom & and a separate kitchen. I saw the potential for creating a lovely garden. Its position at the end of the terrace meant more space & more privacy too.

What makes this property unique
The cottage has plenty of character and is such a cosy and relaxing place to stay. Guests comment on how well equipped it is.
The flower garden is an added bonus - a lovely place to sit outside in the warmer months.
It is in an ideal location for anyone who likes walking - you are so close to a network of country footpaths - yet within a few minutes walk from pubs, cafes, restaurants and independently run local shops.
Steyning is a lovely small rural community - a great base for exploring Sussex. You are only 5 miles from the coast & within easy reach of Brighton.
