Many of our West Sussex holiday homes welcome dogs – and with boltholes surrounded by woodland, countryside, parkland and generous lawns, your pet will be delighted to come along, too. If you’re browsing our collection, simply filter by ‘Dog friendly’ to see the full list, or do ask us if you’re not sure.

Our luxury collection features some of West Sussex’s most generous and splendid properties. These include former farmhouses and manor houses, sleeping 10-14 guests. And because we understand that parties of this size need breakout spaces as well as shared activities, you’ll find an abundance of living and reception rooms, too. If you’d like help planning itineraries, booking experiences, or organising catering, we also offer a bespoke concierge service.

Perhaps we’re biased, but West Sussex really is breathtaking in every season. Ultimately, the best times to visit will depend on the experience you're looking for.

During winter, you’ll find the local beaches are blissfully quiet – meaning plenty of space to stretch your legs and awaken your senses. At Christmas, Chichester and Arundel glimmer with festive magic, while many of our properties offer the delight of a roaring open fire or wood burner.

Spring is great for countryside rambles in the fresh, crisp air. At this time of year, the South Downs National Park comes alive with wildflowers and greenery, making it the perfect place to find tranquillity.

In summer, the sunny days equal festivals, beaches, and long daylight hours, lending themselves to exploring. Goodwood Festival of Speed and Glorious Goodwood attract international crowds – ideal if you’re interested in motorsports or horse racing.

And, during autumn, the West Sussex landscape comes aglow with rich colours and harvest treats, making it an ideal destination for walking, hiking, and foodie shopping.

West Sussex offers a treasure trove of free things to do, particularly if you’re a fan of getting out into nature. The South Downs National Park is free to roam, with rolling hills, chalk cliffs, and ancient woodlands. Within the park, Kingley Vale contains some of the oldest trees in Britain, while the views from Chanctonbury Ring are priceless. You could also head out for a free circular walk (approximately 1.5 miles) around Chichester’s Roman city walls. Petworth Park, landscaped by Capability Brown, is another free gem, where vast parkland and roaming deer create a picture-perfect backdrop.

West Sussex is ideal for a romantic getaway. From cosy cabins with wood burning stoves to elegant city townhouses, our luxury collection offers the perfect setting for couples. Explore charming villages, stroll along the South Downs, or enjoy intimate dinners in nearby market towns. Many properties also offer added touches such as hot tubs and private terraces to make your stay unforgettable.

Many of our West Sussex holiday homes are just a short drive from the coast. Whether you’re seeking quiet coves for a peaceful retreat or popular sandy beaches for family fun, you’ll find options nearby. Properties with sea views, easy beach access, or private gardens make your stay even more special, perfect for relaxing or enjoying watersports along the South Coast.
