Contemporary house, private pool on edge of Petworth, South Downs National Park

PRIVATE POOL FOR EXCLUSIVE USE!!!


The Pool House is a recently converted, light, contemporary house which is quietly situated on the edge of Petworth and an area of outstanding natural beauty. It is only a short walk to the centre of the historic town, with its convenience stores, delis, many antique shops, independent retailers, gastro pubs, restaurants and cafes. It is also within easy walking distance of historic Petworth House and Park and the Shimmings Valley.

The property benefits from the sole use of a large swimming pool during the summer months (operates only from the end of May to early September).

Inside, the house comprises a large open plan sitting room with dining area and well equipped modern kitchen with granite worktops. There is a downstairs bedroom with kingsize bed and ensuite wetroom (and direct access down stairs to the pool and garden- only in the summer months).

Upstairs there are two more ensuite bedrooms, one kingsize bed and the other a double. There is a second sitting area upstairs too with a small double sofa bed. (There is an additional fee of £50 payable on arrival for making up and supply of extra linens if sofa bed required)

The house is furnished with contemporary furniture and fittings, with light oak flooring throughout. The beds are all very comfortable and the hotel quality linen has a very high thread count and is ironed by hand!

There is ample room to park up to three cars outside (additional cars by arrangement) and for the summer months only, a large well maintained pool and pool garden laid to lawn with flower beds and rambling roses. Modern and comfortable garden furniture, including six pool loungers and a dining table and six chairs, are provided together with a bbq.




Contactless checkin and out.
Enhanced cleaning/ disinfecting programme - detailed information will be available before guests arrival.


From the beginning of June until the end of September only weekly bookings from Fridays unless otherwise agreed.

One small well behaved dog is welcome. Enclosed garden available when pool is open. Plenty of walks close by. Please clear up after your dog.
No children under 14y.
No smoking.
No parties. No bridal/hen/stag groups.

Charming property in ideal location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The property was beautifully appointed throughout with everything needed for our stay. The location is ideal, accessible to restaurants and stores as well as Petworth House, but also perfectly peaceful. Carole was great to deal with both before and during our stay. Highly recommended.

Half term mini break
A very comfortable house, well presented with a relaxed feel. Great location for the South Downs and walking into Petworth including Petworth House. A well equipped kitchen also the bonus of all 3 bedrooms being en suite. Carole contacted us throughout our stay to make sure all was fine and whether there was anything else we needed. Overall a very enjoyable stay, thank you Carole.

Perfect stay in Petworth
Carole and Robert are great hosts and have done all they can to make the property a high standard and very comfortable. The bed linen, towels and mattress are extremely high quality. To find a property with a pool is just wonderful. The garden is beautiful and such a relaxing stay away from London. Everything is close by with a 5 minute walk and I would love to return and rebook. They also made my dog Lou feel extremely welcome ! Wonderful hosts and a wonderful property - thank you so much !

Peaceful retreat
Just steps away from all that Petworth has to offer. The Pool House is beautifully appointed and very comfortable in every way. The hosts are very friendly and always on hand, living in The Old Rectory next door. This was our second visit and I’m sure it won’t be the last.
