Around 3 miles south of Chichester, this unusual one-bedroom retreat offers a great base for solo travellers or couples travelling with a dog. It’s in a peaceful rural spot 0.5 miles from Hunston and surrounded by scenic walking routes that’ll certainly keep tails wagging. Explore the tranquil towpath of the Chichester Canal or enjoy the tranquillity of Pagham Harbour (4 miles), with its wildlife-rich landscapes. You’re also within easy reach of the South Downs (7 miles) for longer countryside adventures.
On arrival, you and your pet will climb an external staircase to reach this first-floor home in a converted former mill. Inside, the welcoming open-plan living area is perfect for spending quality time together, complete with homely touches and comfortable seating. Prepare easy meals in the compact kitchen, enjoy them at the dining table, then relax on the cosy sofa in front of the Smart TV. The double bedroom provides a restful space to recharge, while a modern shower room completes the layout. Outside, you can relax with your doggie in the shared enclosed courtyard, equipped with seating for al fresco meals. Private parking is available for one car.
Nearby, wander into Hunston for local shops and eateries, or discover the historic streets, boutiques, galleries and museums of Chichester. If your pet is pining sea breezes, head to beaches at West Wittering and Selsey (both within 6 miles, please check for seasonal restrictions). The National Trust site at Petworth (16 miles) has 700 acres of parkland you can explore with your furry friend. Dogs are also welcome to enter most of the historic buildings at the Weald and Downland Living Museum (8 miles).
