We stayed at Silhouettes and Lucky's for three nights with our family of 10 to celebrate an 80th birthday and they proved to be perfect.
Everything is of high quality and much thought has been put into the conversions.
The hot tubs, as anticipated, were a mecca for our grandchildren!
If you like the look of it - book it now!

Silhouette stable is a beautiful place to stay, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Whilst rural it is only a short drive to the beach and city and so many interesting places. Local pubs and cafes are excellant and very dog friendly. We will definitely return

Overall the standard of the lodge and situation was excellent.
We only had two criticisms (which were communicated to Sarah on departure)
The mattress in the bedroom above the kitchen was very uncomfortable. Very 'lumpy'. It is in need of replacement.
The grass area in the garden was very muddy. We were constantly clearing up muddy footprints around the lodge from our dogs. Obviously, in the summer months, this problem would be reduced. But throughout our stay, the grass area was water-logged.
We also prefer TV,'s in the bedroom (but this is a secondary issue)
Yes, we would return and recommend this property, if the two main issues were addressed.
Hope this feedback helps.

This is a real hidden gem in a beautiful location just shy of Bosham and only 5 minutes to Chichester. The house is very private and enclosed with a beautiful patio and garden. It is well equipped with a beautiful kitchen which has doors opening to the patio, garden and hot tub at the back and a stable door opening to the shared front garden with the adjoining property ( Lucky Stables). There is a large bathroom downstairs with excellent shower and plenty storage. Bedrooms are upstairs ( fairly steep but carpeted and not many) and a further, smaller, shower room. Beds are comfortable, however, they are standard doubles and, for us, a bit too compact but we made do for our holiday. Both rooms have lovely windows and nice views.
The host, Sarah, is excellent and very responsive to any queries, issues etc. Our dogs loved it but our slightly older dog is not good on wood floors ( throughout the ground floor) but Sarah was able to very quickly provide additional rugs which helped a great deal.
I would recommend this property to anyone wishing to base themselves near the West Sussex coast. We travelled to Brighton in the East and Lymington in Hampshire taking in Midhurst, the New Forest, Portsmouth, Selsey and various other road trips within that area. Eateries are close by and Sarah gives a very comprehensive summary on arrival of what is nearby and recommended. We particularly liked, Driftwood in Elmhurst, The Bosham Inn, Joanna’s tearoom in Chichester and can thoroughly recommend The Three Horseshoes Pub in Elsted, near Midhurst.

We had a wonderful stay in Silhouettes Stable for a long weekend. The stable was immaculate when we arrived, and Sarah was very welcoming and showed us all the amenities. We loved the complimentary prosecco and chocolates on arrival too!

The beds were extremely comfy, and it was a very child friendly place as we had a 2 yr old and 9 month old with us. The location was beautiful and very peaceful, and we enjoyed a day out at nearby Bosham Harbour.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Silhouette's Stable to friends and family!

Sarah could not have been more helpful . Even though she is a very busy proprietor, she always got back regarding my enquiry, and was 12/10 with service and care on our arrival . Could not recommend it more !

We've just returned from another wonderful stay and have seen and done so much again but all different from our two previous stays. This time we stayed in Silhouette but it was equally as special and on par in every way as Fern Lodge. I think all the properties at Oakwood have something unique and special.

On this visit we explored the east of Chichester a little more and visited the amazing gardens and sculptures at Leonardslee Gardens, saw a Purple Emperor butterfly and wild ponies at Knepp Rewilding, explored Arundel and had a nice drink by the river at the Black Rabbit, walked from Lavington common to Duncton, saw lots of Red Kites and had another nice drink at the Cricketeers pub, walked around the Chidham/Cobnor peninsula and saw all the yachts in the Chichester Harbour area and had yet another nice drink at the Forresters Arms in Graffham one evening

It's such a lovely area and Oakwood West is well placed for exploring in all directions

Until next time, thanks

Great welcome. Beautiful setting.
Lovely enclosed peaceful garden.
Good walking distance to a few pubs.
Short drives to the sea or Chichester.
But feels far away from it all.
We all loved it.

We had a great long weekend break at Silhouette's stable with our 2 dogs. The cottage is clean, well maintained with everything you need plus lovely decor. The information provided ahead of the stay was comprehensive and Sarah was on hand to meet us when we arrived and available for any queries during the stay. The enclosed garden was perfect for the dogs and the hot tub a luxury for us!

From the cottage, we were able to easily reach plenty of things to do including West Wittering beach, walking at Kingley Vale, the Weald and Downland museum plus a great Sunday roast at the nearby Richmond Arms.

We would thoroughly recommend the property to others.

Everything was perfect! Every small extra had been thought through from dog biscuits to plastic tumblers for the hot tub. As our visit was in February, we made very good use of the wood burner, kettle and hot tub. Sarah was welcoming, responsive and helpful. We were sad to leave!

Everything is great… from comfort, facilities to location. Sarah is brilliant and all went very smoothly. Chichester town and cathedral is well worth a visit. A lovely woodland walk on the estate although part was flooded and too deep for walking boots. A few logs to change that would be great. Saw deer roaming and had a terrific Christmas. Thank you

Lovely property in a quiet location, yet convenient for exploring the area. Easy access to the site and parking by the stable gate. The stable was light and airy, beautifully decorated, clean, spacious & very well equipped. Warm too - so sadly didn’t get to light the log burner. Loved the little touches such as the bowl/treats/towels/bags for the dog. Sarah the host was very welcoming and helpful and had thought of pretty much everything.. even down to the waterproof playing cards & floating tray for the hot tub! The outdoor area was private, well maintained & very inviting - sunny by day, lovely lighting for the evenings and completely secure for a dog and/or little ones. Was sorry to leave and would definitely recommend.

Great amenities, great service, great location, great to have coffee, tea and sugar for arrival
Even advised on good dog walk
Hot tub was mega too
Electric car charger two minutes walk away
Area for improvement would be addition of a sun umbrella
Could also make more of the fact there are four boardgames to play in the property

Although you could take a dog where the stables are you have all the site walking passed for showers ect. Plus cars going in and out And of course the dog would bark we where for ever calling him in as there we notices about keep noise down. Also lots of rules for the dog no upstairs. So you are opening a gate to go upstairs not the easy ones either. I think it is not a sight for dogs or children. I didn't know about all the rules before I booked.

Silhouette Stables was a lovely place to stay. Bella, our German Shepherd was also made to feel very welcome with treats and towels available. The enclosed garden was great, being able to use the hot tub knowing Bella was secure was reassuring. Sarah was available to answer any questions we may of had throughout our stay. It was a great base as there’s lots of woodland, beach walks all within a short drive. Silhouette Stables had everything we needed!
