Large house for family gatherings!

Nestling in the glorious foothills of the South Downs this wonderful property is perfect for groups of all generations to get together in a tranquil countryside setting. The main house has 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and the annex (Swallow Barn) has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. There is a small raised swimming pool, and spacious grounds.

A country track leads you to the main house with parking for up to 6 cars. The large well- equipped kitchen has a family dining room table which seats parties of up to 18. The hallway is a light and bright area with upright piano. There is a comfortable living room with sofas armchairs and open fire, utility room, downstairs WC.

Outside there is lots of room for children to play and there is a small, raised swimming pool with removable steps so that young children can’t get into the pool on their own. There is an air source heating system which means that in the shoulder months the temperature does not get very warm unless the weather is particularly good. Children must be supervised in the pool at all times.

Please note that parties are not allowed at the property; the house is only for guests who are staying.

Well behaved dogs are welcome (£27.50 per dog for stays of 3-7 days and £27.50 for each additional week) but they are not allowed on the furniture or to be left alone in the house.

Bedroom 1 and 2 at the main house are kingsize beds with ensuite bathrooms with showers, basin and WC, there are 3 further bedrooms (bedroom 2 and 3 have double beds and bedroom 4 is twin) which share a family bathroom with bath and shower, basin and WC. There is also a bunk bedroom which sleeps 4.

Swallow Barn is gloriously light and airy with large glazed windows looking out into the garden and beyond. There is living and dining area, kitchen, bedroom (with double bed) and bathroom on the ground floor with a further double bedroom, bathroom and TV area on the first floor. There is a slope rather than steps to get into the barn and the ground floor bedroom and bathroom are easy spaces for those less mobile to negotiate.

This is a joyful family home, not sleek and designer but full of character and charm and is ideal for families to come together to share time in the country. If you enjoy Polo Cowdray Park is nearby and for race lovers Goodwood is approximately 25 minute drive away. Should you wish to go as far as the beach that is another 15 minutes further South. There is wonderful hiking right from the door the fabulous National Trust properties of Petworth House an Up Park to enjoy. The nearest train station is Petersfield which is less than 15 minutes drive from the house – journey time of 1 hour to London.
