Wooden Cabin with private pool nestled in the South Downs
Sleeps 4 in 2 bedrooms
Situated in the charming village of Sutton, in the South Downs National Park and just outside Petworth with its quirky antique shops and stately home, The Pool House is a cozy countryside retreat designed for relaxed getaways. With wisteria-covered buildings, rolling hills, and winding walking trails, the Petworth area offers an idyllic setting for couples or small families looking for opportunities to relax and explore.
Set within the grounds of a family home, The Pool House is a 2 bedroom wooden cabin, exuding Scandinavian rustic charm with warm, welcoming interiors and breathtaking views across the surrounding countryside. The 17 metre outdoor pool is exclusively yours to enjoy in a romantic rose filled private garden —perfect for lazy summer days soaking up the sun or refreshing morning dips before breakfast on the terrace. Warm up in the sauna and refresh yourself in the large family shower, before relaxing again on one of the loungers by the pool. If you’re feeling more active, grab a tennis racket and head across the orchard to the tennis court. Pick damsons in the summer or apples in the autumn, play with the children in the wooden tree house or head straight out on to one of the many footpaths leading you up on to the South Downs. The choice is yours!
Inside, the wood lined cabin has everything you need. There’s reliable Wi-Fi for staying connected (if you must), with a large comfortable sofa to watch movies on the home cinema or air hockey and snooker tables if you want to play. Light the wood burning stove as the evenings draw in and settle down with a glass of one of the Sussex sparkling wines.
Whether you're looking for a romantic escape, a family retreat, or a quiet base to explore this beautiful corner of Sussex, The Pool House offers the perfect mix of comfort, charm, and countryside calm.
