Goodwood

Holiday Rental Description

'' If you have the dosh, don't bother looking elsewhere."

That was the verdict of Jane Knight, deputy travel editor of The Times newspaper. Greeted by elegant interiors, access to an indoor, heated pool and champagne on arrival (selected stays), most guests would find it very difficult to disagree. In fact, taking into account the brilliant kids facilities, BFB would wager that more than a few families would consider moving in for life!


Converted from the Victorian stableyard and outbuildings of Bruern Abbey, this pretty cluster of 12 cottages sleep from 2 to 10 and are stylish, luxurious and well-equipped, country houses in miniature with the added benefits of an indoor pool, treatment rooms, fantastic facilities for mini guests and optional housekeeping and chef service on request (must be pre-booked).


Modern comforts like seriously powerful showers, underfloor heating and state-of-the-art kitchens blend with elegant antiques, pretty fabrics, four poster or tester beds, and open-fires (guards provided). Fans of Osborne & Little, Sanderson and Nina Campbell will be in heaven! Outside, the beautifully landscaped grounds hide communal gardens, a croquet lawn and a heated indoor pool with fitness suite and treatment rooms. Mini guests and their parents are exceptionally well catered for with a raft of nursery equipment, toys and books provided in the cottages, plus a walled garden complete with elegant two-storey 'wendy house' (be warned, some may want to move in for good!), heated play cabin with dressing up gear, more toys and arts materials.

Accommodation Overview - Goodwood Cottage
​
On the right-hand side corner of the courtyard Goodwood Cottage was one of the two holiday cottages built from the stables that housed the grooms.


The front door opens onto a light kitchen with its utility room and lavatory. Then you will find an inviting drawing room with a circular dining table and an open fireplace. A small door on the right will lead you to a private and enclosed garden with a lawn and a south-east terrace with furniture and a BBQ.


On the first floor there are three bedrooms; a double with a four-poster bed and an en suite shower room, a twin and a single with a faux bamboo four-poster bed sharing a bathroom with a power shower over the bath.
