About this cottage rental

THE PROPERTY:
A pretty holiday home with walled flower garden, set in a rural Sussex location near to Pulborough, Petworth and the South Downs. French doors open into the sitting room, with a sofa facing out to the garden and a large skylight for stargazing. To one side is the bedroom with king size (5ft) bed, wardrobe, chest of drawers and bookshelves, and to the other side a bathroom with shower over bath. Next to the sitting room is the dining space, and a well-equipped kitchen. Library Cottage is listed here by Inspire Stays dot com, the leading independent Sussex holiday specialists. Visit us direct for full info about this home.

Books adorn this cottage with a wide selection of literature, ready for some R&R amongst the flowers. Beyond your private garden you are also welcome to access over an acre of the owners’ own beautiful grounds, including a carefully and naturally nurtured pond.

Gay Street is a tiny hamlet, yet home to three acclaimed vineyards and Wine Estates. Nutbourne, Nyetimber and Ambriel Sparkling are all within walking distance (ticketed open days only at Nyetimber), and there are no less than 10 quality vineyards within 10 miles. Beer and ale enthusiasts can enjoy Hepworth and Greyhound Breweries both within 3 miles.

Library Cottage is the perfect hideaway, tucked away in the depths of West Sussex. This was our second visit and it was just like home from home with a warm welcome from our hosts. The scenery on the South Downs is stunning and the seaside resorts have their own traditional attractions like the pier at Eastbourne and holiday rock at Bognor. All in all, a delightful week.

We made a very last minute booking for a short break in Sussex to visit the Knepp Estate to spot the Purple Emperors, and it was perfect. The cottage itself is well equipped, spacious, warm, and very comfortable. We loved sitting in our own garden enjoying the flowers and wildlife, and Liz and Chris let us explore their beautiful garden.There are plenty of footpaths from the cottage, one leading to the local pub and vineyards.It's an ideal location for exploring the many villages, the Knepp Estate and the South Downs. Liz and Chris were very friendly and welcoming, and made us feel at home. After long days on our butterfly quests, the cottage was the perfect retreat and we would love to return! Highly recommended, we wished we could have stayed for longer. Thank you Liz and Chris.

Library Cottage is a bijou residence set in the heart of the West Sussex countryside. The owners have lavished every comfort and convenience upon it and it is hard to think what else one could wish for. Despite the weather, we spent a very pleasant five days exploring the surrounding countryside; in warmer months, residents would have the exclusive use of a very attractive walled garden. We would have no hesitation in recommending to others.
