This is a great place for a large family. The Barn is huge and can accommodate plenty of people. Has an excellent hot tub outside which is very easy to access. Also has a fireplace with supplied logs for a cosy evening fire. Tucked away in a very quiet village. With easy access to Chichester, Petersfield, Gosport, Plymouth and Arundel.

Fantastic spacious 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom barn conversion with open fields to let dogs run immediately behind and a 4 km wooded walk beyond. Extremely friendly owners live across the farmyard. Local shop and tea room within 100 yards and local pub (same owners) within a mile, connected by a footpath along the road.
