Nest Lodge, un superbe lodge de trois chambres entouré par la nature

Peacefully tucked away in a heavenly pocket of West Sussex countryside, this exceptional three-bedroom holiday home offers a magical retreat for up to six people. The undulating hills and patchwork fields nearby offer some of the most exquisite landscapes in the country to be enjoyed from the house.
Please note: This property is in a very quiet area and loud groups are not appropriate at this location. Please also note that the owner's very friendly and sweet Jack Russell dog may pay you a visit as he lives on the grounds, so for those with allergies or fears of dogs, this may not be the ideal stay for you.
We will be available to assist throughout your stay but we do not live on site at the property. Should you have any special requests, please get in touch and we will do our best to help.


Pulborough is nestled into the South Downs National Park just 5 miles from Petworth; 17 miles from Chichester and 9 miles from the historic town of Arundel in West Sussex. The coast is just 20-minutes away by car where you’ll find sandy beaches at Climping and Littlehampton, or the Rive Arun runs closer to home for fishing, canoeing and paddle boarding.

Within Pulborough itself there are some beautiful woodland and countryside walks which are signposted just a short walk from the house.

For lovers of fine wine, look no further than Nyetimber or Nutbourne vineyards where you can enjoy tours and tastings. Pair your wine with tender cuts of local meat or cheeses from Charlie’s Farm Shop in Fittleworth, all to be enjoyed at home for garden lunches or evening suppers.

Both Amberley Castle and Arundel Castle are open year-round for visitors and sit within a short drive of the house. Petworth House & Gardens or the Weald & Downland Living Museum at Singleton offer an equally beautiful and historic experience for all ages – all fewer than 10-miles away.

It is fairly essential to have a car in Pulborough as it is slightly tucked away from the main roads and stations. The nearest stations are in Pulborough and Arundel where you can call a local taxi to take you to the house. Castle Cars can also arrange to collect or take you to a nearby airport by prior arrangement.
Access to the property is via a smartlock system, giving convenience to arrive whenever suits you. Instructions will be sent 24 hours prior to your stay.

Nest Lodge is a completely self contained, semi-detached property set within the beautiful grounds of the owner's estate. These grounds become an extension of your holiday home for alfresco dining under vast skies filled with birdsong. Inside, each space has been carefully curated with beautiful artworks, antiques and artefacts collected over many years which create a home full of character and style which impresses from the moment you step through the door.

Go exploring on several local walks, mapped out by the owner, taking you through ancient woodland, along river paths or seeking out a country pub. Nip into the village of Pulborough or the county towns of Petworth and Arundel which host an array of historic pubs, shops and attractions, or take in a vineyard tour and tasting at the award-winning Nutbourne and Nyetimber Estates.

Maybe, as many previous guests experienced; once you are here, you’ll not want to venture too far. The peace and luxury of your surroundings will allow you and your party to fully recharge, away from the stresses of modern life.

You’ll pass through some of the most exquisite countryside as you drive through the South Downs National Park from either London or the South Coast. Winding roads flanked by lush hedgerows and mature trees guide you to where this house sits signposted up a private drive where there is parking for two cars on the forecourt.

Nest Lodge feels completely independent and private within its own floodlit Mediterranean garden. Several seating areas and a firepit offer the perfect spaces from which to enjoy the Downland vista framed by mature, specimen trees and architectural planting.

Fragrant lavender, wild flower meadows and olive trees form a glorious backdrop to the generous open plan living room and kitchen, where there is ample space for formal and informal dining around an oak-topped eating island, which can spill outside during the warmer seasons. For evenings in, there is a sumptuous sofa and a flat screen Smart TV with sound system and complementary WiFi for streaming movies. Or you may wish to simply unplug and curl up with a book, of which there are many to choose from.

If you’re cooking for family or friends, the kitchen is well-equipped every appliance you could need to whip up a delicious meal to be paired with an English sparkling wine purchased from any one of the local vineyards. There is a good range of crockery, glassware, cutlery, cooking utensils and pans, plus a Nespresso machine.

Milk and fresh eggs from the owner's chickens will be left for you on arrival, and there are options to purchase a luxury breakfast box or an afternoon tea box for an additional treat. Should you need anything in particular, please ask and we will make every effort to accommodate.

On the ground floor, there are two comfortable double bedrooms for two; one double and one twin, both dressed in quality Egyptian cotton white linens. Both have clothes and shoe storage, and each bed has a deep hybrid mattress with plump pillows and so whatever time you fall into bed, you can ensure a truly restful night’s sleep. These rooms share use of a beautifully appointed family shower room adorned with fluffy towels and the blissful scents of Ortigia Italian luxury soaps.

The epitome of luxury, the principal bedroom suite spans the entire first floor with French doors opening to a romantic balcony where views over the South Downs are truly breathtaking and can be enjoyed from your pillow. The sunsets are equally beguiling for an evening nightcap and you can bathe below a canopy of trees in the ensuite bathroom where the deep bathtub has central taps for comfortable bathing for two at either end.
