- EnglandA unique West Sussex building that once stored fruit from the orchards now offers exceptional and stylish holiday accommodation. The Apple Loft dates back more than 200 years and sits within the private grounds of the owners’ 5-acre home which at one time formed part of a large country estate, just a mile away from the National Trust village of Slindon. The property sits right on the southern boundary line of the South Downs National Park, behind electric gates. It was built in the local tradition of flint and lime mortar, and the flint walls are on display to great effect within the property and blend so well with the sympathetic restoration that has been achieved.
Overlooking its own private garden area it offers exceptional accommodation with a separate living room and dining room. The kitchen is well-equipped with a spacious, separate utility area which works well as a room to leave boots following a local Downland walk. Two of the three bedrooms are on the ground floor, both sharing a bathroom. A cloakroom can also be found downstairs. Upstairs the principal bedroom has a king sized four poster bed and en-suite facilities. The standard of finish here is exceptional and the care taken in the renovation is very clear to see.
The Apple Loft is just a mile from the very picturesque village of Slindon and Slindon Woods which both belong to the National Trust. It is in the perfect location to explore the South Downs or the Sussex coast. The historic town of Arundel is within four miles to the east while the cathedral city of Chichester is less than 7 miles to the west. It puts you in a central position to enjoy the many attractions and events that occur in the area. The popular events at Goodwood are just one example. The Apple Loft is within 5 miles for the Festival of Speed and Revival meetings. Nearby Slindon Woods consist largely of beech trees that soon open out onto open farmland on the lower slopes of the South Downs. Within the Slindon Estate there are over 30 miles of rights of way that criss-cross the estate to explore. Included within is Stane Street, the Roman road linking London with Chichester offering a particularly picturesque walk through the woods from Eartham to the top of the South Downs at Bignor where you meet the South Downs Way. Fontwell Park Races, a unique figure of eight track and a jewel for West Sussex is within 1 mile.
The beaches at Climping and Bognor Regis are within 5 miles. Climping is a beautiful unspoilt length of beach of Special Scientific Interest. At its eastern end beside the mouth of the River Arun is the West Beach cafe built by local craftsmen using materials sourced locally. It is worth a visit and the fish and chips do come highly recommended! A short distance to the east from Slindon Arundel is a historic market town dominated by the symbolic castle and the rising spire of the cathedral. It offers a plethora of craft and antique shops as well as restaurants and tea rooms. It’s a great place to wander and just enjoy the hospitality on offer there.
Arundel Castle is the seat of the Dukes of Norfolk and is set in 40 acres of sweeping grounds and gardens. The castle has been seasonally open to visitors for almost 200 years. It is one of the great treasure houses of England and is home to priceless works of art in stunning rooms. Climbing the 131 steps to the Keep which dates from the 11th century to take in the views over Arundel and The South Downs is definitely worth the effort. Chichester, the cathedral city of Sussex, is one of the great well-preserved Georgian cities in the UK that has played a key role in the affairs of Sussex since at least Roman times. The city’s broad streets are packed with listed buildings headed by the towering presence of the cathedral. In the late spring and summer the cathedral spire is home to a family of peregrine falcons that swoop over the city at dusk. The city centre is neatly enclosed within the ancient city walls which helps to make Chichester compact and pleasant to explore on foot. It is a cosmopolitan vibrant and friendly city proudly combining two thousand years of heritage with a lively lifestyle. Beach 6 miles.
