Hi this property was fine for a short stay and we liked spending time in Petworth. Although on the main road it's well double glazed so this was not a problem. It is very handy for Petworth Park and House. So the dog enjoyed walks in the deer park. Which is possible off the lead provided you can keep your dog controlled and put him on a lead when near the deer.
The shower is lovely and powerful.
You are very handy for the shops if you want to eat out and there is plenty of choice. Kitchen a bit short on pans etc for cooking at the cottage.
Arriving to find the cottage beautifully decorated for Christmas was wonderful ...... and the heating was already on! Everything we needed was there including mince pies, muffins and more ...... Petworth deer park entrance was just across the road - so some lovely walks with our dog made our stay complete ... oh and the (dog-friendly) pub about 3 minutes walk too! Great for a cosy winter break!

Great location
Overall good, however bed linen duvet and pillows of poor quality, need replacing. Sheets smelled leading to question, had they been changed? No hand towels, only bath towels which also smelled .

We take our reviews very seriously and always listen to comments. However, we are extremely concerned by your hinting that the linen had not been changed ! This would be outrageous if indeed it were true but all our linen has to be laundered with strict adherence to even more hygiene protocols due to Covid measures. Also, it is a shame that you did not see the hand towels which were indeed there but, in a drawer so we assume you did not see them.
We surprised my Daughter and her partner with a 2 day stay at the cottage.
They absolutely loved it! Beautiful walks with the dog and the cottage itself was charming.
Your always a bit dubious when booking on line and not being able to actually view it but I shouldn’t have worried. They had a perfect few days away. Thank you 😊
We had a wonderful couple of days at the cottage. Perfect for exploring Petworth and the Deer Park directly opposite is stunning. Arwenne couldn't be more helpful and the cottage has everything needed for a cosy stay. Love all the old beams and original features. Parking proved a bit tricky but we managed.

Rather run down, and not particularly well equipped, despite a plethora of new looking televisions. One of the kitchen cupboard doors fell off, ditto the toaster handle, one of the lamps stopped working. On the plus side bathroom etc very clean, and Arwenne could not have been more helpful. It is very well situated for the town and Petworth House.
Quaint old cottage with bags of character. Comfortable and warm accommodation. We found the two bathrooms very convenient.
Shops, antiques, cafes, pubs all on your doorstep.
