Lovely property for a family gathering and celebration. Both inside and outside the facilities were good and suited all of our party.

Great sized house with lovly vintage style for which reason we could oversee some (old) defects. The kitchen can be enhanced with more dishes.

This property was just perfect for 10 ladies celebrating some big birthdays. There's not many properties that can provide 10 single beds (if required, check property details as can also be doubles) with 5 bathrooms, which was just perfect for our needs. The grounds are beautiful, we even managed to play rounders at our age, and the local Vineyard is within walking distance, as is a Spa with a great restaurant for Sunday lunch. Slight hiccup at the beginning regarding getting in due to a lost email, but resolved quickly and the host is nearby to resolve any issues and was very helpful before and during our stay (Thank you Ruth). If you're looking for peace and tranquility in the countryside, but also want to have fun without disturbing the neighbours then this is the perfect house. Hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did.

We enjoyed a 5 night stay at the cottage as part of a celebration for my father-in-law’s 75th birthday. It checked off everything we wanted - idyllic picture book cottage, lovely gardens and well equipped kitchen. Most importantly we planned to use 5 bedrooms and wanted each guest room to have access to their own private bathroom, whether en-suite or down the hall. For our early June stay we had great weather and spent much of our daytime hours at the garden table. We cooked up a storm and enjoyed family dinners in the dining room each evening. Daytime activities included a round of golf at Singing Hills Golf Course, a visit to Nyman’s Gardens and an afternoon wine-tasting at Bolney Winery. The hosts live in a separate house on property and were delightful, helpful with great communication. Everything went smoothly from start to finish and we highly recommend booking this beautiful home for a small family gathering or even for a couple looking to escape for a few days to West Sussex.

Perfect properly for a family celebration.

Nice stay in this characterful cottage. Layout is rambling but the bathroom set up not ideal for a mixed group of adults.

The property was in a wonderful location with fabulous views. Very comfortable with plenty of space for 7 adults, it was also very well equipped. We would happily recommend it.

We had an absolutely lovely time here as a group for a long weekend of nature walks and art and games. The best thing about the house itself aside from the feeling of history is all the little nooks and seating areas - it was great for having various activities set up in different places (board games, watercolour painting, etc) and still feel like there were spaces for people to curl up with a book or take a nap. Very cosy while still having plenty of space. Perfect place for a family or group with all the bedrooms and bathrooms. The house and the location were both so relaxing - stepping out into the garden in the morning and just being in the countryside was wonderful. Also, Ruth is an excellent property manager - onsite but in a separate building with great communication when we needed. We will definitely be booking again!

All 10 of us really enjoyed this beautiful home. It was a perfect place to spend time while in England.

We had a lovely time in this charming country house and had everything we needed in the way of toys to keep the kids entertained in the beautiful enormous garden.

A great place to stay with American friends and family. Unusual for a property of the age and size to have such versatile accommodation and lots of bathrooms/WC’s would definitely rebook. VRBO though slow to communicate ( not owner)

My family and i had a great stay, 6 adults 4 children aged 1-8. Stunning property very peaceful. Only a 20 min drive to other great places of interest like Brighton and Lewes. Great games shed for the children. I would Highly recommend this property

Booking process good & reassured by responses from host Ruth prior & upon arrival. Option to chill in house & garden with walls in local countryside, walk to enjoy visit at the local Vineyard & great food at the Ginger Fox just up the lane.

We stayed at the property to celebrate my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary- the house was fantastic and perfect for our celebrations. Lots of room but still very cosy with a lovely fire. The house is in a beautiful countryside setting - however Brighton is only 20 mins in the car and there are some lovely local pubs.

We wanted a home for our 3 families from different parts of the globe, and this house was the perfect place with enough space for us all. Unfortunately the weather didn’t allow us to use the fabulous garden as much as we would have liked to. Easy access to the coast and surrounding areas. Thank you to Ruth and John for making this a Christmas to remember for all of us.

This is a beautiful property and we had an amazing weekend. House seems bigger than the photos suggest, with plenty of room for everyone. I had a few questions before arrival that Ruth was very helpful with. Upon arrival we had an unfortunate situation with lots of wasps in the house, but Ruth explained they had just recently got rid of some wasps nests, so hopefully that will be resolved for the next guests. Would definitely return here for another weekend break

Ruth had email problems so that's the only reason I marked down the comms ratings. The Mill is a beautiful house in beautiful countryside. The 10 of us had to stay in all Saturday due to heavy rain but had a lovely day playing games and chatting (and eating and drinking). On Sunday we went for a windy but lovely walk on the Devil's Dike (I've had to spell this incorrectly as Vrbo doesn't allow the correct spelling with a "y" !!) and had a superb lunch at the Royal Oak pub in Poynings. Also recommended are Alison and Sean's lovely reception and food at the Duke of York in Sayers Common

Large character property which was ideal for our family holiday. It catered for all ages from 0 to 65! Owners were nearby and resolved minor niggles quickly and with no fuss. Stronger Internet signal would of been helpful. Definitely recommend.

This is a lovely home in beautiful countryside. Very spacious with lots of bedrooms / bathrooms so people have plenty of space/privacy. Beautiful garden and nice walks along footpaths nearby. Hosts were very kind and thoughtful. The family definitely wants to say here again. Wifi was in and out, not consistent enough to handle zoom/webinars etc but there is a country club nearby you can use.

So pleased I found this property, perfect size for a family group. Owners friendly and helpful. The welcome basket was a lovely touch. It was comfortable and like a family home, perfect with children so not on tenterhooks the whole time. All the outdoor space and equipment. Refound my table tennis skills. Highly recommend this property

We used the cottage as a base for my family around our wedding! It was a beautiful place to stay, very homely and comfortable

We really enjoyed our stay at The Mill. We were very fortunate with the weather and so were able to make good use of the huge grounds playing croquet and cricket and enjoying drinks and dinner outside. (There's a good sized gas bbq.) Inside the house is well equipped, the bedrooms are a good size and there are lots of bathrooms, so no squabbling over who gets to shower first. The location of the house suited us perfectly. There's lot of well signposted footpaths nearby to explore the countryside and it was a 20 min drive to the seaside. We would recommend a visit to Albourne vineyard which is about a 10 min walk from the house; the staff were very friendly and we enjoyed trying their various wines. The food at the nearby Ginger Food is excellent and the farm shop at Rushfields has an extensive selection of groceries including a butchery for bbq supplies. It was a shame to leave.

Fabulous rustic cottage, in large garden, perfect for kids of all ages.
