Excellent location, clean well heated property; plenty of space. Most features were good, but needs a TV update for a modern age

This is a lovely comfortable property in a beautiful setting. All the instructions were clear and helpful and our struggles with the TV were sorted promptly by the owner.

To be helpful a couple of things it would be nice to have - a couple of serving bowls for salads etc, some lighter duvets for summer and some fans as we were there in very hot weather.

Beautifully decorated and equipped property in a very quiet rural position but excellent access to Goodwood and sites with plenty of good restaurants in the area.
Decor is modern but comfortable and the kitchen is also modern and very well equipped.
Good quality comfortable beds with nice bed linen. Towels provided.

(Only minor things I would recommend is 1. provide drying up cloths for those of us who don't need to use dishwashers.
2. Egg cups for boiled eggs at breakfast 3. A larger supply of shower gel as one small tube for 4 days not enough)

All in all a very positive experience

We spent a wonderful Christmas holiday in a beautifully converted building.
We were particularly pleased that there was a Christmas tree ready for us
stood so that we could celebrate a lovely celebration with our son and his family.
We would also like to thank you for the welcome gift.

Old Root House is a lovely place to stay. It is well furnished and spacious with comfortable, attractive furniture and soft furnishings. The kitchen is well equipped, the lounge is cosy, the bathrooms are modern and the bedrooms have plenty of storage space for clothes.

Everything about this property was as described.Lovely location in a beautiful country setting. Chichester,Arundal, Petworth and other villages are within easy access for days out.
Old Root House is very well furnished.The bedrooms are of a nice size, with good bedding and plenty of towels.The kitchen is very well equipped A Great feature being the underfloor heating. The only fault i could find was the fiddly hob,and the television could be a bit larger.It was difficult to read text.
Highly recommend Old Root House for a lovely rural peaceful stay.

This property was perfect for our long weekend. Great open plan layout and beautifully decorated. Only negative is the garden is very small but not a problem for as it was late October. Highly recommended

We had perfect accomodation for our 3 generation family stay. The cottage is spacious with outdoor dining and easy parking. The en-suite was perfect for the grandparents. Great location for trips out. Hayling iisland for the beach, Selsey for a walk on the wild side and even a day trip to the Ise of Wight. Chichester is a delightful tiny city with a must-see cathedral. Great walks on the Downs too and lunch at the Hare and Hounds at Stoughton. Thank you.

Never been to the area before. The house could not have been in a better place for us as tourists, and very close to all amenities. Lots of space to spread out, with high standard equipment. Owner very helpful, and pleasant walks direct from the doorstep. Wonderful time spent in the area. Would highly recommend

We loved this barn it was in a great location near to Goodwood & 15minutes drive to Chichester. The barn itself really ticked all the boxes for us, spotlessly clean, great decor, three good size bedrooms (one en-suite) a lovely kitchen/dinner with everything you need to hand & a comfortable lounge area. Towels & linen were also of a good quality. Would highly recommended & can’t wait to go back!

A very well converted barn near Chichester. If you want peace and quiet, this is for you. We used it as a base to explore the area, not far from the coast with some lovely walks. There are 2 pubs that you can walk to, both with good food, although ensure you have your torch. The kitchen was large and well equipped but not very well laid out. The master bedroom needed a mirror for hair drying. The underfloor heating was effective although due to it's nature was slow to react, the main areas were always warm, best to leave it on settings recommended. Nice touch to have a Christmas tree up. Wi-fi was good although mobile reception was patchy, perhaps just my phone.

This converted barn has been fitted out wonderfully. The beds are comfy, the bathrooms large, the kitchen appliances are Neff. It sleeps 6 easily, and unlike many places that sleep 6, it’s roomy elsewhere for 6 with a large dining table.
The heating worked well, loads of hot water for showers, and everything one could need.
It’s close to Chichester and large supermarkets, but is so quiet and surrounded by farmland.
It’s probably the best holiday rental I’ve had in 20 years!

The Old Root House is in a great position with lovely views. It is very conveniently placed for Goodwood Racecourse and there some lovely pubs in the area. The house itself is very clean with modern appliances and bathrooms. Comfortable beds and sofas. Lots of space and light so a very pleasant home from home.

Great accommodation in a lovely area. We really enjoyed our stay. It was a bonus being able to walk to the Earl of March pub once we learnt the short cut!
