Set yourselves up in the heart of Chichester at this handsome Georgian townhouse. Ideal for families or groups of friends, there are two elegant sitting rooms to spill out into. Though we imagine most gatherings will centre around the chef-worthy kitchen. With its Aga, walk-in pantry and long dining table, it’s made for lively dinners and marathon board game sessions. Outside, the walled garden is a real suntrap, complete with an alfresco dining terrace and firepit for long summer evenings. Tucked into the Pallants quarter of the city, you’re moments from Pallant House Gallery and within easy strolling distance of Chichester’s cobbled streets, independent shops and cafés.
