  Lovely stay at the Annexe The owners communicated well before we arrived, with specific directions, but the property was easy to find.

  In any event. Only issue I found that, with a large car, it was quite tight manouvering through the gates into the second courtyard where the annexe was located, however the owners opened the bottom gate to the property which allowed us more room to access from the second entrance which was appreciated. The property itself was very clean and well appointed, the owners had kindly provided a welcome pack of bread/milk/coffee/biscuits etc which was a nice touch. Main bedroom was large and the bed was comfortable, all good there. The main living area had 2 sofas, which is good to spread out, although we found the various controls for the TV a wee bit confusing, but got there in the end The annexe is built next to and above the owners garage, so most of the accomodation is above the garage, apart from the kitchen and utility which were obviously downstairs. Be aware that the mechanical noise of the power garage doors is obvious from the annexe, and it took us a minute to realise what this was- perfectly reasonable for the owners to access the garage to go about their daily business of course, but it might be useful to make guests aware of this in advance. We booked the annexe as a base to attend the Festival of Speed which is only about 5 miles away, and it is perfect for that and to explore the surrounding area. Recommended

  The property is unique and beautiful, in a very quiet location in the heart of the South Downs National Park.

  The beds are comfy, there's plenty of space in the living room and dining room .There are plenty of walks from the door, a short walk to the Roman Villa in Bignor. Everything you could want is in the property. There is Wifi, but due to the thickness of the walls it works best in the living room. Telephone reception on Vodafone isn't brilliant but there is a signal in the garden. The gardens are relaxing and there is lots of space to enjoy warm summer evenings.The roads to the property are single track with passing places but are not busy. This is common in this part of the world. The property is close to all the major road links to all the exciting places you can visit in the area. We didn't drive more than 40 minutes to visit any of the attractions. Portsmouth and Brighton are both about an hour away. Overall a wonderful place to kick back, relax and de-stress whilst contemplating the centuries of people who have sat where you are sitting.

  My sister and I stayed in The Yeoman's House over Easter weekend with our three young children and had a fabulous time.

  The house is large and spacious and has an incredible history. The kids had an absolutely fantastic time both inside the house and running around the huge garden. With an acre to explore and a trampoline to bounce on they were never bored. We played frisbee for hours in the back garden and had an Easter egg hunt on Easter Sunday which we will never forget! The owners were very helpful, giving us lots of recommendations of local pubs and places of interest before we stayed. We went to a pub they recommended for lunch which was fantastic and took the kids to Singleton Open Air Museum where we got to visit another medieval house just like the Yeoman's but without the modernisation. It was fascinating. All in all it was a unique and special experience staying in such an old house with so much character and all mod cons that we thoroughly enjoyed.

  We arrived on one of the coldest days this winter - the house was very cold (thermostat on heating recorded 14 degrees) It took 4 hours for the temperature to reach 18.

  We followed the manufacturers instructions to time the heating for when we needed it, but this did not work and we just had to turn it on and off manually. The property was adequate for our needs (we are local and were staying there while building work was being done at our house) but we though the information folder could have been presented better - basically it just contained the manufacturers instructions for appliances and some badly typed details of local services. We are not sure how helpful it would have been for those on holiday in the area. We did not find the appliance information easy to follow either - took us 2 days to work out how to take the childproof lock off the hob, but maybe that was just us! Absolutely no information regarding how the TV worked - fortunately it was a system we were familiar with.

  Longmace house is a beautiful property which kept the old features and combined it with modern touches. It is bang in the middle of Arundel so was a great base to explore the town and its surrounding areas. The property was very spacious and well equipped, perfect for a family getaway or even a gathering with friends. We also luckily stayed during a weekend where the farmers market was held and it was a real treat. Although no allocated parking, I wouldn’t worry about it, plenty of car parks and on street parking, there is also free parking on mill road if you get lucky with a space. We had a restful and enjoyable stay, plenty of walks for the dog too. We highly recommend this place and Paul was very informative prior to our arrival which was a bonus.
