Farmhouse Holiday Lodge, near West Wittering beach, Chichester & Goodwood

Easton Farmhouse Lodge provides a rare combination holiday of beach, marinas, indoor pool/hot tub fun and countryside enjoyment. Surrounded by fields on a quiet country lane and with views to the South Downs, The Lodge forms part of a Grade II listed Georgian Farmhouse opposite the Medmerry RSPB bird reserve, which reaches down to the sea. A 25 minute stroll or 10 minute cycle across the bird reserve will take you to the secluded Ham beach.

The Manhood Peninsular is an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty adjacent to the playground waterways of Chichester Harbour, an estuary popular for its sailing and water sports, wildlife (particularly bird watching), cycling, walking, horse riding, classic cars and Goodwood events.

Located centrally on the peninsular and opposite the Medmerry RSPB bird reserve leading down to the secluded Ham beach, the Lodge is only a few minutes by car to the blue flag beach of West Wittering, Itchenor sailing village, Chichester and Birdham Marinas, Goodwood Estate and historic Chichester. Pagham Harbour, Selsey, Dell Quay and Bracklesham Bay are also only a few minutes away. Bosham, Fishbourne's Roman villa, Hayling Island, historic Arundel (including castle) and the South Downs are also all within easy reach, and the Isle of Wight can be visited by ferry via Portsmouth or Southampton. Local shops are at East Wittering and out of town supermarkets etc on the nearby south side of Chichester.

The Lodge provides comfortable accommodation for 5 people in two bedrooms (Bed 1 with a 5' double bed and Bed 2 with bunk beds and another single), plus a possible further 3 people: 2 on the double sofa bed in the living room and one on a further pull out single in Bed 2 (just fitting the space and possible to form a King sized double). A cot can also fit in either room (in Bed 2 instead of the pull out). Bed 1 has an ensuite shower room and there is also a family bathroom (with shower over the bath) which can be shut off to become an ensuite to Bed 2.

The Lodge has WIFI internet, a TV and log burner. The kitchen is complete with oven, microwave, fridge-freezer, dishwasher and utensils, and there is a utility room with washing machine for laundry (plus iron, ironing board and washing lines). There is a private garden with patios, seating, barbecue and chiminere type fire pit. A trampoline, swing set and football goal are available in the farmhouse grounds for children and up to 5 (basic) adult bicycles can be borrowed. A cot, high chair and small baby bath are available upon request. Our personal indoor hot tub and lap pool (exercise pool with adjustable currents for adults/fun pool for children) and gym equipment are available to use by separate arrangement (extra cost).

Parking is available. A car is essential. Cycling is easy as everywhere is flat.
