About this cottage rental

If you are looking for the ideal getaway in the beautiful West Sussex countryside then Holme Street House is the place for you. Positioned in stunning undulating gardens and grounds the house offers privacy and tranquillity to its guests. Once you have parked up you can forget about driving and walk through the surrounding fields to the village.

Entering the grounds through the electric gates you approach the house along the driveway. Guests enter the house through the side door into the flagstone hallway. On the ground floor there is a cosy sitting room with a log burner and TV, this room has a sofa bed which can be made up on request at the time of booking. Back into the hallway you will find the kitchen which leads through to another sitting area, ideal for getting together in the evening to play board games in front of a roaring log fire.

The traditional kitchen has an Aga together with everything you will need to comfortably self cater for your stay, including electric oven and hob, stove top coffee maker, Dolce Gusto coffee machine, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, toaster and microwave.

In the cellar there is an iron and ironing board, washing machine and tumble drier guests are welcome to use.

There is a formal dining room with a large table for seating 12 and a food warmer is available to use when you are catering for everyone!

Upstairs to the first floor there is a master bedroom with super king bed with an ensuite bathroom with shower over bath. There are two further double bedrooms, one with a cot and one with a vanity unit and a further twin room. The family bathroom has a shower over bath. There is a separate WC on the ground floor.

To the side of the main house you will find the charming Dove Cote Lodge. This bijou self contained lodge is beautifully furnished with cosy seating area, dining table and chairs and a shower room. There is a hidden kitchen with fridge, electric hob, kettle and microwave. To access the bedroom area you scamper up the ladder to the eaves...this space is really only ideal for the more agile in your party!

The grounds to this property are beautiful with terraces of lawns and lovely private seating areas dotted about and hidden in the paths and the surrounding shrubs. There is a vast sweeping lawn to the side of the house with a sweet Wendy House to the bottom. Guests are welcome to enjoy the heated swimming pool (open from April to September) which is very private and positioned on the top lawn to take every advantage of the sunshine!

There is plenty of parking for guests, easily fitting three cars, five if you are careful.

This really is the quintessential English farmhouse, the perfect UK getaway!

Incredible garden and beautiful swimming poolCharacterful house with large and comfortable beds and well equipped all round
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jun 2025
We were a mixed group ranging in age from 90 to 4, with a lively dog. The old house and its stunning gardens were everything we had hoped for. The kids loved the pool although it was a bit chilly, and the gardens were the pefect setting for games and just sitting and admiring the roses. The younger adults loved the privacy of the dovecote although the ladder to the bed platform was tricky in the night. The house was just the right side of homely, a bit shabby in places but with plenty of room for all and some lovely old furniture. The kitchen was very well equipped with loads of crockery and glasses, and we loved the aga. The only things we would change would be the mattresses on a couple of the beds which were quite uncomfortable and the en-suite shower which could have done with replacing.

Beautiful property which is bigger than the pictures look. Down a private lane with glorious gardens and a very homely interior. We stayed as a group of friends but already planning our next trip as families.

We had a lovely week at Holme Street House. Here are 3 positives and 3 not so positives (but in general the positives well outweigh the negatives, but I like ot give a balanced review). 's The space is fantastic - inside and out - so many places to relax, eat, play. The Swimming pool area Pretty much everything you need for a large group (ie. kitchen utensils etc.) -'s Our kids didnt like the woodlice in the house The dishwasher wasn't functioning properly Could do with a washing line or clothes horse All in all, great stay and we'd go back!
