"We really enjoyed our stay. The property was within walking distance of the city center and the host even offered to drive us to our appointment one day which we really appreciated. The room was perfect and fit our needs. Would stay again when visiting Chichester."
"The owners were able to let us in early. They provided information that we asked for. The room was spacious and very clean, with an enormous bathroom. The beds were very comfortable, enabling us to have a very good nights sleep. Breakfast was simple, but very good.
If we are in this area again we will certainly book into The Cottage again."
"This accommodation is in a great location, the staff were friendly and welcoming, the room was well equipped. Our only criticism was the noise, as be aware the area below is used for live bands and DJs and the music didn't stop until 3.00am - noting ear plugs were provided 😂"

"I booked the Beach House, due to going to Goodwood for a few days. It had good reviews. I was not disappointed. Parking at the rear of the property was a little narrow, but once round the back, plenty of space. Also parking at the front.
Good instructions pre arrival and knew where to find our room. Useful manual in the room. Lovely, comfortable room. Shower was big and good facilities in the room. Felt very homely. Shared communal lounge, downstairs, if we so wished.
Breakfast room was lovely, bright and airy. Breakfast choice and range was great. Tasted amazing. Owner and staff were so so helpful and warming.
Would highly recommend the Beach House. My Sin and I loved our stay. It’s also only a 2 minute drive from West Witterings Beach- one of my favourites.
Can’t wait until I can come back. "

Fully recommend this hotel."
