The Old Dairy

Tucked away near Arundel in West Sussex, The Old Dairy is a cottage suited to a couple seeking a quiet rural base. It's a straightforward bolthole without extra frills, relying instead on its peaceful setting for appeal.

Billingshurst station is 2.4 miles off, handy if you'd rather leave the car behind. For days out, Fishers Farm Park is 4.1 miles away and makes a good outing if animals and family attractions interest you, while Storrington and District Museum, 4.5 miles off, offers a look at local history. A little further afield, the Village Garage & Cycle Shop sits 6.9 miles away for those curious about something a bit different.

With its small size, this is best suited to two people wanting a calm escape in the South Downs countryside, with a handful of local attractions easily reached by car.
