The space
Welcome to our charming country cottage located in the tranquil village of Funtington, West Sussex. This delightful retreat offers two large and comfortable bedrooms, accommodating up to four guests, and boasts a pretty garden for your exclusive enjoyment.

As you enter through the front door, you'll find yourself in the open plan sitting room, kitchen, and dining area, creating a seamless space for spending time together.

To the left, you'll find the ground floor bedroom, offering flexible sleeping arrangements with a choice of twin or super king beds. The en-suite walk-in shower room provides convenience and privacy.

The sitting room features comfortable seating for four, inviting you to unwind and enjoy each other's company. A smart TV is available with the usual streaming options (you will need to use your own logins to access the streaming services). Adjacent to the sitting area, a dining table for four sets the scene for shared meals and memorable conversations.

The fully equipped kitchen comes complete with modern appliances, including a dishwasher and washing machine.

As you head upstairs, you'll find the master bedroom, a peaceful space with the benefit of a spacious anteroom which has two sofas - a lovely space to relax or get ready in. The bedroom is generously proportioned with windows on both sides and plenty of storage space.

One of the highlights of our property is the lovely private garden and patio, furnished with comfortable garden furniture. Spend time listening to the birds, whether you're enjoying a morning coffee on the patio or unwinding with a book as the sun sets. This enchanting outdoor space is perfect for intimate gatherings, alfresco dining, or simply enjoying the beauty of the surroundings.

Funtington is a charming village with a welcoming community and a rich history. Explore the area to discover traditional country pubs, scenic walks, and beautiful landscapes. For those seeking a taste of city life, the Roman town of Chichester is just a short drive away, offering a mix of shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions such as it's cathedral, Festival Theatre and Pallant House art gallery. Just beyond Chichester is West Wittering Beach, the famous Goodwood estate for horse & motor racing and golf, West Dean Gardens and so much more.

You will have access to the whole apartment. I won't be around in person, however I have help managing my Airbnb with a local holiday property management company. The apartment is professionally cleaned and the linen and towels are replaced with freshly laundered supplies between each stay. Remote self check-in gives flexibility for late arrivals, and 24/7 guest support is on hand should you need any assistance during your stay.

There will be some complimentary tea, coffee and biscuits waiting for you which I am sure will be useful for those arriving after a long journey!

Bedding and towels are provided as well as miniature travel sized bottles of shampoo, shower gel and soap.

Other items included are a washing-up pack, toilet roll and kitchen roll which will last a couple of days. The Co-op in Bosham is a short drive away for purchasing more if needed.

Whether you're seeking a romantic weekend escape, a family holiday, or a peaceful retreat, The Nest in Funtington is the perfect choice. Embrace the beauty of the West Sussex coast and countryside and create lasting memories in this delightful home away from home. Book your stay today!
