How Sweet the Sound

How Sweet the Sound: West Sussex

It's hard not to fall in love with this traditional Victorian townhouse. From the cosy wood-burning stove to the sumptuous rolltop bath, you'll find characterful touches everywhere you look – updated to fit 21st-century tastes, of course. The suntrap of a garden is a lovely little extra come summertime, while the top-floor main suite is the perfect spot to unwind after a day out and about in Chichester. Speaking of, the city centre is about ten minutes on foot, while the famous cathedral is reachable in fifteen. There is a flat on the basement level, but not to worry – the entire home, including the garden, is yours to enjoy.

Home truths:
*This home is spread across three floors, with no ground-floor bedrooms – it may not be suitable for guests with limited mobility
*There's a holiday rental in the basement of this home – there is an internal staircase linking the two, but it will be locked from both ends
*The family bathroom has a bath only – those wanting a shower will have to use the en-suite on the second floor
*You can work remotely at the desk in the third bedroom
*Your host provides a starter supply of complimentary soap, shampoo and conditioner
*Contactless check-in and checkout is available here
*For short stays, your host provides an on-street parking permit for one car – for longer stays, there's free parking without permits a few minutes walk away
