The cosy sitting room has an open log fire

With its origins in the 18th century, this is an enchanting cottage surrounded by its own secluded garden within the grounds of the owner's Georgian farmhouse.

The Lodge is conveniently located, being just over a mile from the waterfront at Itchenor (pretty sailing village with good pub) and about 2 miles from the beach at West Wittering. There is much to see and do in the area - sailing at Itchenor and Bosham, birdwatching in Chichester Harbour, walking on the South Downs Way. The cathedral city of Chichester with its Festival Theatre is a 10 minute drive while Goodwood, with its increasingly busy calendar of events, Petworth House, Arundel Castle and the naval dockyard at Portsmouth (home to HMS Victory & The Mary Rose) are all within easy driving distance.

Refurbished by its owners to an excellent standard The Lodge is 'bijou' with simple but very pretty décor, lots of helpful, personal touches and plenty of attention to detail. Being some 100 yards from the main house it affords privacy to its guests.

Comments from previous visitors

"We have had a lovely restful vacation. Our only regret is that we have to return home. We wish we could pick up The Lodge and its charms and take it home with us. Thanks to Jo and Mike for their hospitality from the welcome basket to the lovely honey and scones left for us. We look forward to another stay in the coming years." Mr & Mrs Bochman, April 2009.

"We had a lovely few days, wish we were staying for longer as The Lodge is so cosy and well equipped. We had fabulous weather for The Goodwood Revival, a walk from West Wittering to Selsey, a visit to pretty Arundel and a trip to Brighton on the train. A beautiful, tranquil setting and we had breakfast on the deck every morning." Mr & Mrs Morris, September 2009.
