About this property

Holme Street House and Dove Cote Lodge - sleeps 12 guests in 5 bedrooms

If you are looking for the ideal getaway in the beautiful West Sussex countryside then Holme Street House is the place for you. Positioned in stunning undulating gardens and grounds the house offers privacy and tranquillity to its guests. Once you have parked up you can forget about driving and walk through the surrounding fields to the village.

Entering the grounds through the electric gates you approach the house along the driveway. Guests enter the house through the side door into the flagstone hallway. On the ground floor there is a cosy sitting room with a log burner and TV, this room has a sofa bed which can be made up on request at the time of booking. Back into the hallway you will find the kitchen which leads through to another sitting area, ideal for getting together in the evening to play board games in front of a roaring log fire.

The traditional kitchen has an Aga together with everything you will need to comfortably self cater for your stay, including electric oven and hob, stove top coffee maker, Dolce Gusto coffee machine, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, toaster and microwave.

In the cellar there is an iron and ironing board, washing machine and tumble drier guests are welcome to use.

There is a formal dining room with a large table for seating 12 and a food warmer is available to use when you are catering for everyone!

Upstairs to the first floor there is a master bedroom with super king bed with an ensuite bathroom with shower over bath. There are two further double bedrooms, one with a cot and one with a vanity unit and a further twin room. The family bathroom has a shower over bath. There is a separate WC on the ground floor.

To the side of the main house you will find the charming Dove Cote Lodge. This bijou self contained lodge is beautifully furnished with cosy seating area, dining table and chairs and a shower room. There is a hidden kitchen with fridge, electric hob, kettle and microwave. To access the bedroom area you scamper up the ladder to the eaves...this space is really only ideal for the more agile in your party!

The grounds to this property are beautiful with terraces of lawns and lovely private seating areas dotted about and hidden in the paths and the surrounding shrubs. There is a vast sweeping lawn to the side of the house with a sweet Wendy House to the bottom. Guests are welcome to enjoy the heated swimming pool (open from April to September) which is very private and positioned on the top lawn to take every advantage of the sunshine!

There is plenty of parking for guests, easily fitting three cars, five if you are careful.

This really is the quintessential English farmhouse, the perfect UK getaway!

Really beautiful building in stunning surroundings
This is the first time we've stayed here and we were very impressed with the house, surroundings, etc. Very quiet area with a fantastic pub at the bottom of the hill.

A lovely house and garden in a good location
This property has much to recommend it and we were very happy with the house, garden and excellent pool. There were a few issues which I have pointed out to the agents; if these are rectified, I would upgrade my marks to excellent.

The perfect Christmas getaway
The perfect Christmas getaway, felt just like the cottage out of the holiday but bigger! Beautiful surrounding landscapes and lots of space for 12 guests. It was a little too cold for us to use the pool however would definitely revisit in the summer as it looked amazing! The outside annex was done to a really high modern country style which was beautiful, although the rest of the house is was nice it was a little dated. The house was clean and comfortable and we would all definitely stay again and recommend to anyone looking for a countryside getaway.

Amazing country retreat
What an amazing place. Country house with charm, history, lots of communal space and very well equipped kitchen. It has its quirks as you would expect from an old building - some low doorways, some tired decor - but it is beautiful. And the grounds and gardens are spectacular. And then the pool - huge, warm, very clean - a lovely space to soak up the sun, if you are lucky enough to get any (we were) and to sit and relax. Handy for local pub, nature reserve, vineyard and great walks. A fantastic place to spend a special birthday with family and friends.

Lovely cottage shame about a few of the facilities
The cottage and grounds are stunning and the pool is brilliant. The bedrooms are large and spacious. We had issues with the fridge and the dishwasher. The dishwasher didn't clean any of the dishes which meant washing everything by hand and the fridge just didn't keep anything cold - this meant we had to throw a lot of our food away. The showers can also be inconsistent if a lot of you are trying to use them in the morning. That said the cottage is really beautiful and we had a lovely stay.

Cottage set in beautiful grounds with private outdoor Pool
First view you see is a Picturesque cottage set in beautiful grounds at the end of a private gated drive. Felt very safe and secure. The accomodation of the cottage is good with 4 bedrooms. Two twin and two king size. All good sized rooms. Some beds need replacing which I gather the owner is sorting. Lovely shower room. The en-suite is serviceable but shower a bit pathetic. Bedding and towels provided of a high standard. Two lounges and a dining room. All comfortable and nice to have extra space if it’s a large group. Kitchen has an Aga plus oven/hob and microwave. Plenty of cooking utensils, pans and dishes. Lots of crockery and cutlery. Lovely big kitchen table too. Dove Cote is a pretty space. Couple of issues but eventually sorted. Outside space is its crowning glory. Pool area lovely. House needs a little tlc in areas but in view of its age I would think it’s a never ending task for the owners. We did set alarm off and didn’t have instructions to it turn off. Eventually found house book and sorted it! Poor neighbours! A couple of cleaning issues which have also been taken on board. All in all we had a lovely week. Pool was great and grounds were beautiful.
