About the host
Hosted by Janet and Michael Lindsay
My husband Michael and I live and work in London and bought this house as a holiday and weekend home in 2006 after renting in Itchenor for 5 years. With the help of our excellent local architect Joanna Jefferson and our skilled team of builders we virtually rebuilt the house, equipping it with every modern convenience whilst retaining the best of its original features. It has the true feeling of a family home as many guests have attested. Our two children are now both grown up and, whilst we and they still love to visit Itchenor, we use the house less frequently than we did when the children were younger and have started to make it available to others. We have always gained so much from our trips to Itchenor for holidays and short breaks. I am sure you will also.
Why they chose this property
We originally bought the house so my husband could indulge his passion for sailing and our two children could learn to sail also. With Itchenor Sailing Club just 200 yards away the location could not be more convenient. Since then the whole family has fallen in love with Itchenor and all that it has to offer in addition to sailing. Picnics on the beach at West Wittering and walks from the house along the harbour front (an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) and also around East Head (National Trust) are particular highlights for us.
What makes this property unique
Chichester Harbour is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offering fabulous walks, birdwatching, sailing/boating, fishing and opportunities for many other leisure activities https://landscapesforlife.org.uk/about-aonbs/aonbs/chichester-harbour North of Chichester lies the South Downs National Park with a further plethora of walking and other leisure options https://www.southdowns.gov.uk/ Portsmouth to the West is home to The Mary Rose, HMS Victory and other visitor attractions at the Historic Dockyard providing interest and enjoyment for all the family https://www.historicdockyard.co.uk/
