Extra Amenities

In a wonderfully peaceful, remote country setting within the South Downs National Park, this warm and friendly family home offers superb views across the countryside. It is located in the pretty hamlet of Ditcham, near to Tithe Barn, a popular wedding venue, and about 3 miles from Petersfield, which has many shops, pubs, eateries and a mainline station with trains direct to London or Portsmouth. This comfortable detached house has a rustic charm and many personal touches, as well as an eclectic mix of furnishings. It has been extensively renovated in 2018/2019 to provide an attractive holiday home appealing to families, groups, walkers, pet owners, sports and outdoor enthusiasts. With children in mind, there are many toys and games, an enclosed garden with uniterrupted views of farmland and countryside, and there is plenty of parking - up to four dogs are welcome too! All the first floor bedrooms have French doors opening onto a large balcony maximising the views and perfect for drinks whilst watching the sun set.

A 3-person hot tub is tucked away in the garden and perfectly placed to enjoy some peace and quiet. The house is eco-friendly, with solar panels, air source heat pumps, a self draining cess pit and water from the local stream.
Situated on the South Downs Way, which runs between Winchester and Eastbourne, the property has direct access to extensive scenic walks.
The historic cathedral city of Chichester is within half an hour’s drive, with its cobbled streets adorned with tea rooms and restaurants, and so are Goodwood and Fontwell racecourses. Scenic boat tours can be taken around Chichester Harbour. Petworth House, polo at Cowdray and Midhurst, Guildford and historic Winchester, with its ornate cathedral, are all 45 minutes away.

Also within easy reach is the south coast, with the beach at West Wittering a beautiful place to visit, whatever the season, and can be enjoyed by all ages.
