Making a characterful bolthole for two, this charming pair of huts is ideally positioned for couples keen to explore the serene countryside of West Sussex. Situated close to Shipley’s traditional village pub, the site is perfect for walkers exploring the peaceful footpaths which criss-cross this beautiful part of the county. Heading south, the historic town of Arundel (16.5 miles) is home to a medieval castle and a stunning cathedral, alongside a choice of independent restaurants, shops and pubs. The area has a wealth of fascinating attractions and stunning landmarks including Petworth House, Leonardslee Lakes and Gardens, Knepp Castle, and Foxhole Vineyard in Bolney, all within 15 miles. Both Glyndebourne (30 miles) and Goodwood (26 miles) are within easy reach. For a day by the sea, head to the popular coastal resort of Worthing (17 miles).

Stepping into the first of these two colourful, bright and inviting huts you will find a thoughtfully arranged and fully equipped kitchen/diner which has ample storage and workspace, a cheery wood burner and a useful folding table and chairs, perfect for a romantic meal together. This hut also features the cosy wood-panelled bedroom with a lovely snug double bed as well as a Smart TV. Completing this first hut is an invigorating shower room. Heading across to the neighbouring cabin, a welcoming lounge area has further seating alongside a full-sized sauna with complimentary robes, providing a delightful space to settle back and luxuriate after a wonderful day out.

Outside, one of the huts has a sweet, covered space with outdoor furniture offering a quiet spot for a morning coffee. Steps lead from both huts down to the enclosed garden with further seating, a BBQ and fire pit as well as the bubbling wood-fired hot tub. Private parking is available for one car.
