Nestled in the village of West Ashling, this cottage offers a homely stay for four guests. Sure, the bedrooms are a bit of a squeeze, but this home has everything you need for a relaxing retreat – including a cosy wood burner for winter months and a sun-kissed terrace that’s perfect for summer. Just a short stroll from three country pubs, the village restaurant, and with a vineyard nearby offering wine-tasting tours, you’ll never be short of places to eat or drink here. Fancy a day on the coast? West Wittering beach is a short drive away.

Golden Seasons

This characterful cottage is perfect for a romantic getaway. Set among 80 acres of vineyards, woodland, and fishing lakes, with views as far as the eye can see from the private patio, you’ll feel like you’ve escaped to the country here. We love the unique features inside – like the circular-shaped lounge and curved staircase – and who could resist a relaxing soak in the Jacuzzi bathtub? Location-wise, you’re perfectly placed for hikes and bike rides in the surrounding countryside and for adventures further afield, the market town of Farnham is 11 miles away and historic Winchester is a 20-mile drive.

The King's Gate

Well, there's no mystery why this home has made our collection. The apartment is right on the beach in East Wittering, so as you can see, it has great views of the sea from the private sunny balcony as well as most rooms. Yes, the galley kitchen is a bit compact if there are more than two people in there, but it's modern and well-equipped. If you tire of East Wittering Beach (unlikely we know), West Wittering Beach, with its views of Chichester, is less than a ten-minute drive. Otherwise, Chichester Marina is just over ten minutes away in the car, and Goodwood House is around a thirty-minute ride.

Light & Sea

Nestled in the Sussex countryside, this 16th-century farmhouse boasts a sunny conservatory, a hot tub, and a private outdoor pool – a rare find for homes in this area. While it’s well set up for a family getaway, groups are not allowed here. The home comprises a main house and a separate annexe – with a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and living area – rented as one. The main kitchen has everything you’ll need to whip up a family feast, or if you want a night off catering duties, your host can arrange for a private chef to cook for you in the home. Location-wise, you’ll find historic Chichester and the nearest beach both a five-minute drive away.

Golden Dwelling

Only a short stroll from West Wittering Beach, this home provides the perfect base for exploring the West Sussex coast. We love the cosy, seaside-inspired design – think white-washed panelling, wicker furniture, and a cute window seat where you can curl up with a book. Family-style feasts can be rustled up with ease in the kitchen, while the patio is a great place to enjoy an alfresco digestif. As the bunk bed is only suitable for little ones, it's a better fit for families. Factor in the quick drive to Chichester and the proximity to the sea, and it's no wonder it caught our eye.

Coastal Cotton

You'll find this 18th-century cottage in the heart of the South Downs, nestled on the edge of the illustrious Avington Park. Cosiness personified, the snug sitting room has a crackling wood-burner and squishy sofas that beckon for lounging, either with a glass of wine on chilly evenings or a good book on winter afternoons. A separate drawing room is a perfect spot to gather for family game nights, while the rustic kitchen has everything you'll need to rustle up Sunday roasts to enjoy around the dining table. Upstairs, the three comfortable bedrooms promise a good night's sleep. Our favourite is the third bedroom, with its exposed beams and vaulted ceilings – it has two double beds, making it a great option for kids. 

If you're in the mood to pick up the pace, Winchester is a fifteen-minute drive and has a wide array of shops, restaurants and museums. Or take it slow and enjoy a ramble through the countryside, stopping for a pint and some pub grub at the country inns.

Autumn's Being

Staying in this home is like stepping into a scene from an Austen novel – we can just picture Emma Woodhouse wandering the grounds. Corniced ceilings, antique furniture, country views – there's so much character in this Grade II historic building. The home is part of a grand country estate in Wiltshire, but you'll feel as if you have the whole place to yourself in this private south wing. With the living room’s ample seating in front of the fire and the charming wooden breakfast table, you will be equally comfortable drinking tea or wine in elegance. Make sure to stop by a farm shop on the way to cook up a delicious meal in the kitchen or pre-order fresh or frozen meals to make your stay even easier. Take walks in the gorgeous landscaped gardens, stroll over the bridge on the water, and as night falls gather round the fire pit with drinks. You could spend all day at this country estate, but there's plenty to see in the local area too. You're just a six-minute drive from Stonehenge, and it's worth travelling to Salisbury to visit the historic cathedral and wander the cobbled streets. After a busy day, return home to decadent bedrooms and doze off on a beautifully handmade mattress – the very same furnish the Royal Family's residences.

Hartfield

A historic gatehouse on the grounds of the Shaftesbury Estate in rural Dorset, this petite one-bed lodge has recently undergone a loving refurb by one of the estate owners, Lady Shaftesbury. She obviously has a great eye for design, as her palette of delicious apricot and duck egg blue stylishly updates this vintage cottage into not just a twenty-first-century home, but a home with charm and character. There are plenty of thoughtful touches we found exquisite, from soft dressing gowns to the complementary breakfast hamper – and everything, from Egyptian cotton bedding to the plush sofas, is of boutique hotel quality. The hosts are attentive, meticulously committed to making sure your every whim is met. All in all, this cosy country hideaway is perfect for city escapes, with nearby the great beaches of the Jurassic coast, the New Forest, the National Trust property of Kingston Lacey, cities like Salisbury or Portsmouth and traditional seaside in Bournemouth. And while it feels like one of a kind, a twin lodge and two maisonettes in a neighbouring cottage are also available, so you can bring your friends too (although you might want to keep this little secret to yourself). 

A Little Peach

Wisteria House is a beautiful and fully restored farmhouse, neatly tucked into the New Forest National Park. Located just a short walk from the historic town of Lymington in Hampshire, be sure to browse through the charming shops, go for long walks and visit the country pubs of the area. Back at your cosy home, guests have access to the leisure facilities, such as the outdoor pool, hot tub, summer house and table tennis, barbecue area and even a small gym. But all of that is small in comparison to the charming interiors that make Wisteria House so special. Get comfortable in front of the fire, prepare wonderful dishes in the country kitchen, and sleep well in the chic bedrooms.

Wisteria House

This building was once a brickworks, but has since been transformed into a cosy getaway in the New Forest National Park. There's plenty of traditional charm to be found here, from the towering chimneys and beamed ceilings, to the antique furniture and oil paintings on the walls. It has large sitting room and dining area, perfect for parties of family and friends to spend time together over lively brunches and long, indulgent dinners. Outside you'll find a lush garden with green lawns for picnicking and a terrace where you can unwind in the tranquil Hampshire countryside. If you're visiting during the summer months, a yurt is available to fit in even more guests. The peaceful Beaulieu River is right on your doorstep, where you can do some wild swimming or even take a boat taxi downstream. If you find yourself wanting some more action, you can hike, cycle or even kayak through the national park, before stopping off at one of the traditional local pubs for some hearty local fare. 

Hare & Hound

The prospect of a rejuvenating coastal escape fills us with an instant sense of excitement. And this home, nestled in the charming village of East Wittering, provides the perfect spot to get cosy and embrace the refreshing spirit of the sea. 

Set across three floors, the owners have designed this home to bring warmth and fun to daily living. Enjoy slow mornings in the sun-dappled living room, get creative in the fully equipped kitchen and spend lazy afternoons with a book by the fire. And when the weather draws you outside, the garden is a wonderful spot for balmy evening drinks and barbecue meals. Kids will also love playing in the tree house. 

Beyond this private sanctuary, it’s just a short walk to East Wittering beach as well as the local pub and shops, while Chichester Marina is less than a fifteen-minute drive away. So whether you’re hiking, sightseeing or simply enjoying the bliss of doing nothing, this home has everything you could need to experience the natural charm of the West Sussex Coast.
