Welcome to Southwood Farm Cottages – two neighbouring countryside retreats on the edge of East Ashling, just a short drive from the historic heart of Chichester.
Set side by side, Southwood Farm Cottage and 2 Southwood Farm Cottage are charming yet separate properties, each with their own private entrance and garden. Whether booked individually or together, they offer the ideal setting for couples, families, friends, or even larger groups who wish to stay close by while still enjoying their own space.
Inside both cottages, you’ll find a welcoming mix of rustic character and modern convenience. Each property has a well-equipped kitchen with contemporary appliances, including an electric oven, microwave, dishwasher, and washing machine. Families are also well catered for, with thoughtful extras such as a high chair and travel cot available. After a day of exploring the South Downs, guests can sink into comfortable sofas in the cosy living rooms and enjoy a film on the smart TV, or gather around the dining areas to share a home-cooked meal or local delicacies.
Both cottages have a ground-floor bathroom with a shower over the bath, while upstairs there are two main bedrooms – one king-sized and one twin that can be converted into a super king on request. Each property also offers a third flexible room, which can be used as a dressing space, a peaceful reading nook, or a dedicated home office for those needing to work remotely.
Outside, both cottages boast private lawned gardens with outdoor seating, perfect for al fresco dining or a morning coffee. Southwood Farm Cottage also provides a lockable shed for storing bikes or paddle boards, while 2 Southwood Farm Cottage features a charming garden house – an inviting spot to read, work, or simply relax and enjoy the views.
The location is just as appealing as the cottages themselves. Nestled within the South Downs National Park and close to Kingley Vale Nature Reserve, the properties are surrounded by enchanting countryside and bluebell woods that burst into colour each spring. For wine lovers, nearby Ashling Park offers a memorable tasting experience amongst its beautiful vineyards.
Whether you are seeking a romantic weekend, a family holiday, or a working staycation, Southwood Farm Cottage and 2 Southwood Farm Cottage provide the perfect base. Book one for a cosy retreat or both together for a larger getaway – either way, you’ll enjoy the blend of rustic charm, modern comforts, and easy access to Chichester and its stunning surroundings.
