Guests say
The Dairy in Chichester is a well-received cottage, praised for its peacefulness, cleanliness, and suitability for both families and dog owners. Guests appreciate its rural charm, proximity to local attractions, and the welcoming hosts. The enclosed garden and spacious, cosy interiors are highlights, though the closure of the local pub and a desire for more mugs are noted.
The cottage is generally regarded as clean and tidy. One mention of cobwebs suggests a slight room for improvement, but overall, guests seem satisfied with the cleanliness.
The location is highly valued for its tranquility and convenience for visiting Chichester, Portsmouth, and the South Downs. The rural setting is a consistent positive, despite the village pub's closure.
Comfort is a strong point, with guests finding the cottage cosy and peaceful. The presence of en-suite bedrooms and a comfortable setting for families and dogs contributes to a high comfort level.
Facilities are well-regarded, with an enclosed garden and well-equipped space. However, the mention of a need for more mugs and the closure of the local pub suggest some areas could be enhanced.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate the level of thoughtfulness. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

We had an excellent stay at the Dairy and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We were 2 couples with 3 large dogs between us. The farm has 4 barn conversions on one plot and the converted milk barn we were in was ideal for us. The garden was enclosed which made us feel confident in letting our dogs out unattended to do their business. The barn was all on one level with a step between the living room and kitchen. It is well located for us to explore the surrounding areas.
