Close to the picturesque South Downs National Park, this home is on the ground floor of a cottage, nestled in the far-reaching grounds of the owner's estate. You'll find a lot of artwork and antiques here, so it might not be the best place for small children. You're in for a countryside treat, though – the views are wonderful, walking trails are nearby, and the garden faces west meaning the sunsets are truly awe-inspiring. You'll receive fresh eggs from the owner's chickens upon arrival, and you might be paid a visit by the resident Jack Russell terrier during your stay. For lovers of the outdoors, this home has everything.

About The South Downs
It’s fair to say people come to the South Downs for the views. Extending for around 260 square miles across East Sussex, West Sussex and Hampshire, they’re a range of chalky hills widely considered to be one of England’s most attractive landscapes. Designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1966, it’s since been awarded National Park status. Stretching from Winchester to Eastbourne, there are charming English towns and villages...
