Birthday weekend stay

We have just come back from four nights away for my mother’s birthday weekend. We had a great stay here, it is really secluded with great views of the countryside and deer grazing every morning! The lodge was well appointed, beds were really comfortable and there were plenty of walks in the local area. We went wine tasting at Ashling Park Estate which was definitely worth doing. We would definitely recommend staying and would stay again in the future!

Relaxing break

Meadow hide is a very comfortable place to stay and we had a lovely time visiting beaches, going for walks with amazing views and walking to the local pubs for a bite to eat. It was also lovely to sit in the hot tub listening to the birds, owls hooting and the deer rutting

Meadow Hide - Amazing !

Second time we have stayed here and would highly recommend it. Place is absolutely beautiful, so quiet and peaceful and the views are amazing. House itself it beautifully done up and loads of space for three people even one in a wheelchair. Great stay and thank you again.

My son and I attended the Goodwood Revival Weekend and had the pleasure of staying at the cottage. It was a perfect spot to relax after the crowds and especially warm up in the hot tub after the rainy days during the event. The staff were very helpful and attentive to our needs. Highly recommended.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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)

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
