Self-catering holiday cottage in Petersfield, Hampshire

The market town of Petersfield, originally a coach stop on the way to the city of Portsmouth from London, is located within - and a centre for exploring - the South Downs National Park. It retains its legacy as a market town with the holding of regular markets in the town square, including a regular farmers’ market offering the best of local produce. It's a wonderful place to live and not may properties are rented out for holidays lets but here are a few to consider for your holiday break.

Staying in Petersfield

Petersfield town is also well known for the various free festivals held throughout the year including May bank holiday, summer and Christmas markets. Just behind the High Street is the Physic Garden, modelled on a typical 17th century gentleman’s garden and possibly one of the more unusual of English gardens. It’s a peaceful haven full of herbs and medicinal plants and a great place for a little rest and relaxation, and they don’t mind you taking lunch in with you.

As would be expected from a market town, there are plenty of independent local shops, with a smattering of multi-nationals, so everything you need for your self-catering holiday cottage is to hand. For walkers and outdoor enthusiasts of all ages there’s the downlands and woodlands of the town’s Heath and Pond, as well as the larger Queen Elizabeth Country Park located 4 miles south of the town in the South Downs National Park. Tourist accommodation should be booked well in advance, we rarely see last-minute cottages in Petersfield.
