Wonderful stay

Really enjoyed this lodge. Great interiors and very cosy. In a wonderful location for lots of different activities. We had an issue with our hot tub whilst we stayed and it was sorted ASAP with no inconvenience. Looking forward to staying again in the future.

A Perfect Peaceful Break

We had a lovely two night stay in Meadow Hide. It was cosy, clean and well equipped. The hot tub was a great bonus plus the swings! The setting was so peaceful but was close to lots of things to do. Will definitely come back another time.

Just the peaceful break we needed

We stayed due to the proximity to Goodwood (we went to the Goodwoof dog show) but the accommodation surpassed our expectations. We will definitely return.

Meadow Hide

Wonderful stay in this superb cabin. Lovely surroundings and a beautiful area to explore. The only change I would make to the cabin is to change a couple of the socket points to ones that have a USB charging point.

Early autumn break

Well appointed lodge in a quiet meadow setting. The hot tub was a welcome treat after a days walking around Chichester harbour. Walking on the road for any distance not recommended. We would come again!

Lovely Stay in West Sussex

Overall, the holiday was wonderful, the cabin was great and had all we needed for a nice stay. I do have some improvements and feedback, however. - The apartment has very little insulation, so it was very hot for the first 3 days, difficult to sleep - The rear terrace was not used as much as we would have liked, the swing chairs are not practical and really uncomfortable. They need to be high to see but this makes them difficult to sit in. Be good for the handrail to be lower to give a view on normal seats and add a sleep hammock - The trees and hedge outside the window obscure the view of the meadow and make deer watching difficult, couldn’t understand what they were planted for. - The view from the hot tub is also obscured by the fence, I think it would be better to have a full wire fence and extend the garden into the meadow a little, this would make it feel less claustrophobic - Shower water wasn’t very warm, but it was fine on a hot summers day like we had - Be nice to have access to woodland or a footpath without walking on the dangerous road. No dog walk area other than campsite - Frying pan needs replacing it sticks pretty bad and took me a while to clean.

Beautiful Cabin in peaceful spot

We enjoyed 5 days here on a last minute break. The cabin is beautifully and thoughtfully decorated and designed. The hot tub and deck off the main bedroom are also well designed and encourage relaxation. Couldn't fault the property and Sarah was a great host; available and responsive but not overbearing. Would highly recommend a stay at Meadow Hide or one of the adjacent properties.

A Lovely Return Visit

This was our second stay at Meadow Hide and it was just as lovely as the first. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable the owners really have provided everything you could need for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. During some inclement weather we enjoyed sitting under the covered veranda off the main bedroom and also enjoyed some calm evenings in the hot tub watching the deer wander past and catching glimpses of owls. There are a lot of things to do in the local area and Meadow Hide is a welcome place to return to at the end of the day.

V nice but not luxury

Nice enough lodge but lacks cupboards in bedrooms (no where to put clothes besides some hanging space) & no dishwasher, also felt mean with crockery & cutlery (3 wine glasses & 4 spoons etc)

Stay at Meadow Hide

Meadow Hide is a wonderful cosy cottage overlooking fields containing deer and other wildlife. We had a lovely stay, the hosts were very communicative and friendly. We arrived to a lovely welcome package including a full set up for our dog (inc. treats!). The property was extremely well maintained and it was very cosy to curl up in front of the log burner.

A beautiful week away in a tranquil and special spot

We would like to thank Sarah for an AMAZING week. We have had a well and truly fabulous time here at Meadowhide, which was very much needed! The place was clean and well equipped, the hot tub a real bonus! Sarah our host was friendly, there to ask any questions and discreet when checking the hot tub, we felt very very much at ease here. We spotted deer most mornings, this place is absolutely beautiful, would highly recommend!

Fabulous family stay - very special place!

We recently stayed at Meadow Hide as a family of 3 with our baby & golden retriever & had such a lovely time. We loved spotting deer from the terraces & windows & the interior design finishes on the inside made the space feel so luxurious & unique, that it was a pleasure to stay in & enjoy some family time. The hot tub was lovely in the evenings after our little one went to bed but we also found there was so much to do during the day, as it was very dog / family friendly locally too. Some of the plates & bowls were a bit mismatched but that would be the only small thing to improved upon, otherwise Sarah was a lovely helpful host & we wouldn’t hesitate to rebook!

Wonderful stay.

A wonderful stay at Meadow Hide. Fantastic accommodation and welcoming, friendly host. Beautiful, peaceful location with plenty of wildlife. Loved the hot tub and al fresco dining whilst watching the deer. Loads to do in surrounding area including country pubs, forest walks, sandy beaches, Bosham and Chichester harbours, and Chichester shops and Cathedral to mention but a few. Our second visit and another super, memorable holiday. So much thought seems to have gone into ensuring guests (and doggies) have a wonderful stay. Thank you once again Sarah.

Lovely time

We spent a very pleasant long weekend here. Loved the hot tub, especially because with being positioned as set into the decking it was so easy to climb in and out! Sofas declared the most comfortable ever! Really loved the little covered veranda with the swinging chairs! A shame that the only access is through the bedroom. The deer provided evening and early morning entertainment but alas no owls. Bosham best place for bacon batch whilst watching the tide come in. Thanks for a relaxing couple of days.

Long weekend at Meadow Hide

Very enjoyable and hospitable, with lots of wildlife to observe and a wonderful hot tub facility. Maybe a little bit too much road/rail noise as we'd anticipated a slightly more rural setting, but still restful and restorative nonetheless. Sarah was very considerate and helpful and friendly. Great for our two dogs also. Would definitley consider returning. For one of the party the pillows were a little harder than usually used at home

A beautiful piece of nature

We’ve just returned from a lovely stay at Meadow Hide. It was a real treat, a very peaceful and relaxing break. We received a warm welcome upon arrival and the lodge was private and well equipped with all the comforts you could want. We took our pooch and he was also well catered for. There are plenty of places to explore in the area and we’re looking to plan a return asap. We ate like kings due to local restaurants offering all sorts and enjoyed all our meals al fresco in our own secluded garden surrounded by beautiful nature. We were lucky enough to spot a group of deer and a barn owl during our visit. This place is a real gem and we didn’t want to leave!

Lovely Place

Generally a lovely cabin and the host was very communicative and helpful. Would note the cushions are feathers which hit my allergies but that's just a note for us! Was a bit closer to the other properties than realised but well set up so never really heard anyone else. Best if you have a car as train station walk was basically just along the road (though if less muddy, probably another route available). Generally though, lovely space that was well stocked, comfortable, and quiet.
