About this property

Four Priory Road, Chichester - a cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Four Priory Road is a pretty, tucked away cottage in the heart of Chichester city centre. The cottage is filled with attractive modern furnishings whilst still retaining its comfortable cottage feel.

Hidden from the bustle of the city you will be just a stone's throw from the main high street. The town offers excellent shopping with interesting boutiques and antique shops together with the main high street shopping you would expect in a larger town. There is a good mix of quirky restaurants and cafes of a high quality and many pubs and bars you can enjoy.

Chichester Cathedral is only minutes away on West Street. You can browse the cathedral and grounds including the beautifully maintained Bishop Gardens.

Chichester train station is within easy walking distance with a direct line to London Victoria running regularly throughout the day. Goodwood also runs a bus direct from the station to Festival of Speed and Revival Festival. Goodwood itself is only 5 – 10 minutes by car if driving.

Walking through the front door into a cosy seating area and through to the kitchen/ dining area with everything you will need to self-cater for your stay. Down a small step you will find the sitting room with plenty of comfortable seating for guests, smart TV & Alexa to enjoy during your stay. Four Priory has a beautiful courtyard garden; we are very proud of this as it's not often you find a garden in a home within the city walls.

The garden can be access via bi fold doors from the dining room or french doors in the living room. The cottage garden boasts two seating areas and beautiful raised flowers beds giving the quintessential English garden feel. The garden is dotted with solar lights so you can sit outside on a warm evening with a glass of wine and enjoy the ambience. The owner also provides a picnic hamper and brollies should you like to take a picnic to Priory Park just across the road.

Upstairs there are two beautifully furnished double bedrooms (one includes a safe for personal items) and a bathroom with free standing bath and separate shower cubicle. Make sure to stop and browse the books at the top of the stairs. The hosts have sourced many local books which give you information about the area and local attractions. Our personal favourite is the ghost tour spots around Chichester! Its fun to read through and spot the locations as you travel around the city.

Four Priory has a separate WC on the ground floor.

There is parking available for one car at the pay and display car park but is free and is within easy walking distance (guests need to provide us with registration plate details at the time of booking for this to be arranged).

No children under 12 years old.

Perfect little house

This was our second visit to 4 Priory Road and we wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Chichester. It had everything we needed for our comfort. We particularly liked the peaceful private garden and the nearness to the city centre.

Fantastic cottage

What a lovely place to stay! A gorgeous cottage, very well presented, clean and super comfortable in an excellent location, with parking provided close by and just a very short walk to the city centre. Lovely outside area too, we just didn’t have the weather to enjoy it. Everything you could want for a short or long stay - we will definitely book again.

Ideal home!!

The only negative thing I can say is that I wish my stay was longer. 4 Priory Road is a beautiful home. Every thing has been thought out to the finest detail and you truly won't want for anything. The location is perfect, the value for money and the care and love that has gone into the home. Will be staying again!

A lovely house in a great location

A lovely house near Priory Park, so walkable to everywhere you want to do go to in Chichester. Furnished to a very high level, with some nice flowers in the garden (and a lovely area to sit and eat your breakfast in the morning sun). Good shower and 2 toilets. And lots of other little touches like umbrellas and some welcoming goodies, which show that the owners care about you having an enjoyable stay.

A very nice holiday

We stayed at the accommodation for six days. After hectic days in London, it was a very nice place to relax.The accommodation is very clean and beautifully furnished. Nothing was missing. A supermarket is nearby.The accommodation is ideal for trips to the Isle of Wight and West Dean Garden.The accommodation is highly recommended.

Well located property

Nice property well located for the town centre. Parking is a bit complicated and it would be better to know the detailed arrangements before you get there. Communication from the company could be better. We had to chase twice for information before our stay.
Response from VrboOwner on 9 July 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you liked the property and its location. However, we’re surprised by your comments on communication, as your access details (including parking info) were sent twice, five days before your arrival. We feel this review doesn’t fairly reflect the efforts made to ensure you had all the necessary information well in advance.

Beautiful cottage in the heart of Chichester

My parents and I had a wonderful stay at 4 Priory Road, a beautifully renovated cottage in the middle of Chichester town. We were lucky enough to have some beautiful weather, so the garden came in handy too! The cottage truly felt like a home away from home - with everything we needed and more! Henry Adams was very responsive, and the owners of the cottage were there to meet us in person and show us around which was a lovely touch. Will definitely be back!

Peaceful

Lovely clean and safe cottage. Sunshine in the garden all day. Lots of nice extra touches. Location ideal for city centre. Ideal for touring places such as; Wittering, Selsey, Bognor, Littlehampton, Worthing, Portsmouth etc. No parking on site but free parking seven minutes in public car park no hassle.

We had a smashing stay. Well equipped ,good quality furnishings and fitments. Comfy beds and pillows .Central location.The owner left us chocolate and wine, very kind of them.Place was spotless with attention to detail that far suppassed any where else we have stayed in before.Only negative thing was the living room couch and chairs, which where not very comfortable and on the low side too.Would definitely recommend this property.

Overall very positive with a minor concern

Very comfortable and well appointed cottage in an excellent quiet location close to the city centre. Only concern was the small step down from the hall into the living area which was not highlighted and I slipped and fell twice during my stay.
Response from VrboOwner on 22 Apr 2024
We're thrilled that you enjoyed your stay at Four Priory Road and found it comfortable and well-appointed, with its excellent quiet location near the city center. The owners really go above and beyond for all guest so I am glad you got to experience this. Regarding the step into the living room we'll make sure to highlight this feature for future guests to ensure a safer experience however we do try to make this clear in photos when booking. Thank you for being such respectful guests, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back soon!

Beautiful Accommodation

This is such a thoughtful renovation with a photo album left in the sitting room showing each stage of the building work. A lovely cottage with many small seated areas inside and a pretty garden too. Someone obviously cares about their guests. An extremely clean property and everything provided for your stay - even a picnic basket! Parking on-site is not available, this is the only drawback. However there is a nearby car park included in the price of the cottage.

Could happily live here

This was such a great place to stay. The owners have made it a very welcoming home, and their attention to detail means you have all the little things that you need - from local information to spare toilet rolls, a clothes horse and even a picnic basket! I also appreciated the welcome wine and chocolate Central Chichester is not an easy area to find a long-term park, so having an arrangement with a local car park means there’s a free place to leave your car every day that’s only five minutes away from the house. It’s comfortable and cosy in cold and wet weather, and a short walk from pretty much anywhere in the centre of town. Loved it here - would stay again in a heartbeat.

We just had to reach out and say a big thank you for not only leaving such a heartwarming review of your stay at Four Priory Road but also for being such fantastic guests. It's guests like you who make what we do so rewarding. We're thrilled to hear that you appreciated the little touches the owners put into making the cottage feel like a home away from home, from the local tips to the beautiful welcome pack. Your kind words about the cozy atmosphere and convenient location mean a lot to us. We'd absolutely love to have you back for another stay whenever you're ready to return to Chichester!

A Real Jewel

House as described. Carefully renovated & imaginatively laid out. Clean, comfortable, spacious - lots of chilling space inside plus outdoor space when weather permits. Quiet - no traffic noise. Centrally located, short walk from the cathedral and city centre. Kitchen has items often missing from other rentals: cafetiere, milk jug, egg cups, separate chopping boards for meat, veg, bread. One of the best places we have stayed.

lovely comfortable place to stay

What a beautiful house! So much light coming in from all the windows- it could even be too hot in summer, but was perfect for late October. We never needed any heating at all. Cooking equipment was good and nice to get a gas hob. We do like to cook from scratch and this kitchen was perfect. Beds, and rooms were large and comfortable, though only found one easy chair that was comfortable to sit in for any time (the sofa in TV room). - I am short and need an upright back, so bucket chairs and long seated chars don't work for me, or my partner. Light was good to read by, (very rare in rented accommodation). Brilliant central location, close to cathedral and shops. Be warned, you'll need to book any taxis in advance, esp too and from the station or supermarket to carry heavy bags or shopping. Great location to get bus to Pagham nature reserve which is wonderful.

Beautifully maintained house, just a few hundred yards from the Cathedral

Beautifully maintained house, just a few hundred yards from the Cathedral. Not the kindest of weather, and this was why Four Priory Road was so good for us ( we are 60+ & no transport). Great very quiet location ( save the Cathedral bells), but literally just 100 yards from one of Chichester's most highly recommended pub. It was no exageration to say that Four Priory Road has everything anyone would need for a syay in this very attractive, clean, and spacious house, which is just off the road around the park. We would recommend this house very highly to anyone, in fact we think that this has definately been the best rental we have ever been in ( out of 14 in the last 10 yearsin this country). Lovely city, even better house.

Wonderful little cottage next to Priory park in Chichester.

The cottage was in a very convenient and central location, perfect for our needs. It was clean and comfortable with stylish furnishings and a fabulous luxurious bathroom! We very much enjoyed our New Year break. Wouldn't hesitate to book it again on our next trip to Chichester.

Delightful house in a great location

The house is in a very convenient but quiet position in the centre of town and next to a beautiful park. It has recently been refurbished very attractively and is warm, comfortable and well- equipped with a pretty garden. We recommend it highly. The only slight disadvantage is that it has no allocated parking.

Priory Cottage, Chichester

This is a fantastic cottage in a great location and I would definitely book this again. Recently renovated, it really does feel as if someone has spent a lot of time, energy and careful thought bringing it all together. It is extremely well kitted out, pleasantly decorated and with a small, sweet garden and nice outside furniture. The location is perfect - close to the park and a five minute walk from shops. My son was super happy with the smart TV! It is definitely a cottage - in other words, the 'lounge' areas are on the small side and I think if you are really tall, the sloping roof in the very nice bathroom might be a bit of a hazard. The main negative I think is a lack of its own parking though there are long stay car parks near by so this can be managed. One word of caution is that the dilapidated neighbouring house looks like it has just sold so I would imagine builders could be moving in soon. Overall a really great place to stay.
