A charming cosy cottage set on the edge of the South Downs National Park with the peaceful countryside on the doorstep, ideal for walkers. The Old Workshop is one of two holiday cottages set on a small working farm surrounded by wonderful Sussex countryside and within walking distance of a charming Sussex village. Cleverly converted from a former working carpentry barn, the conversion has been carried out to a high standard and the lovely vaulted ceilings and exposed timbers give the properties a unique sense of history.

The cottage is completely open plan with a lounge area consisting of a sofa and coffee table making it a perfect spot for watching TV. A dining table overlooks courtyard to the front of the cottage and there is a fitted kitchen area with electric hob and oven microwave dishwasher and fridge freezer. The bedroom area has a kingsize bed and fitted wardrobes. A shower room completes the picture. There is a sunny outside courtyard area with seating available where you can enjoy a morning coffee and watch the comings and goings of the horses in the yard. There is also access to a shared laundry area with a washing machine and dryer.

The Old Workshop is in the charming village of West Chiltington which lies in the lea of the South Downs. It is a hidden treasure full of charming cottages winding lanes and friendly shops and pubs. This sprawling village has a 12th-century church, a quiet charm, and like many Sussex villages provides a tranquil retreat from the pressures of modern living. All this and only 50 miles south of London. The attractive parish church of St Mary is just minutes from the cottage and has a spire covered with oak shingles and a roof of Horsham Stone. Ancient paintings dating from the 12th, 13th and 14th centuries can be clearly seen on the walls inside the building.

The South Downs National Park is three miles away, West Chiltington being approximately half way along its entire length and not too far from Chanctonbury Ring. The Wildbrooks on the flood plain at nearby Pulborough offers many excellent walks along the banks of the River Arun and uninterrupted views south towards the Downs. The Pulborough Wildbrooks also contains one of the RSPBs major reserves in the south and it all falls within the National Park. Three miles away on the edge of nearby Storrington and nestling at the foot of the South Downs is Parham House a magnificent Elizabethan home that is a real jewel. A day there is time well spent.

To the west from West Chiltington is the historic market town of Petworth. It is best known as the location of the stately home Petworth House and deer park which was landscaped by Capability Brown. The house and its grounds are now owned and maintained by the National Trust. The magnificent country house contains an internationally renowned art collection with numerous works by Turner. Petworth was immortalised in his paintings. The town is full of quaint houses and cottages, many within their own courtyard settings. They are interspersed with antique shops and tea rooms so it makes the ideal place for a stroll following a visit to Petworth House and Park.

This area of West Sussex has a variety of events that occur through the year including Glorious Goodwood, the Festival of Speed, the Goodwood Revival, the Arundel Festival racing at Fontwell and polo at Cowdray. Shop and pub 1 mile, restaurant 3½ miles.
