About this property
18th century flint cottage in Arundel
Challenge Cottage, offered by Laura Lye Holiday Lets, is an appealing period holiday cottage close to Arundel Castle and the centre of town which sleeps 2-4 guests. The cottage is bursting with all the charm of a genuine 18th century cottage but has been carefully refurbished to be both pretty and comfortable.
Guests will enjoy the attractive living room with electric wood burner with flame and comfy seating for 4. There is a smart TV and wifi. The living room leads onto a country kitchen with oven and hob, microwave, dishwasher and washer/dryer. There is a small table in the kitchen which seats up to 4 guests. To the rear of the cottage the charming courtyard garden with outside seating area enables guests to enjoy the sunshine on a warm day.
On the first floor is a light and airy double bedroom and bathroom. The second floor has a double bedroom with views towards Arundel Castle and is a wonderful addition to the Laura Lye Holiday let portfolio of Arundel Cottages. Linen and towels are included and beds are made up for your visit.
Please be aware that Arundel cottages are notorious for quite steep stairs and this cottage is no exception…..and it also has slightly restricted head room right at the top of the second floor stairs. Therefore this cottage is not suitable for those with any sort of mobility issues and children under 12 are not allowed. No pets are allowed.
There is no private parking at the cottage but there are 1 hour parking spots directly opposite the cottage. For longer term parking there is a car park at the lido (less than a minute’s walk from the house) tucked away behind the houses opposite or if you prefer to park for free this can be done by parking on Mill Road beyond the castle.
There is so much to do in Arundel town itself that you will find that you don’t need a car unless you want to sightsee further afield. There is the majestic Arundel Castle to be explored as well as Arundel Cathedral, the museum, Arundel Lido, mini golf, tennis, bowls and river trips all within a 5 minute walk of Challenge Cottage. For those who enjoy shopping there are wonderful antique shops all over town and gift shops in both the High Street and Tarrant Street. Arundel is a favourite base for Goodwood Festival of Speed and Goodwood Revival.
There are an abundance of cafes and restaurants all within a few minutes’ walk and a fabulous deli and butcher just around the corner as well as a general provisions’ store a few doors down from the cottage.
