The cottage was a very conveniently located stay and provided the space for us, a family with 2 children. The space was large enough for us all with a decent sized kitchen space and comfortable bedrooms. The parking is plentiful and finding the place easy. entrance was also straight forward. The house was well equipped in the most part and there was plenty of items to help with meal prep etc. although we did feel a few extra kitchen items would have been useful to aid the stay, in particular and extra oven shelf as there is only one, we felt like there was one missing, and also there were no dishwasher tablets which was disappointing.
The bedrooms were comfortable and having two separate bathrooms also beneficial with plenty of hot water. The sitting room was spacious and it was nice having the ease of access to the garden. The TV while not really for us but for the kids was an older design and would benefit from being upgraded.
The location is great with easy access into Chichester and then into the South Downs. We enjoyed the stay and would recommend it.

Lovely renovated barn. Great kitchen and living area. Cosy with underfloor heating throughout and a log fire. Easy check in with keysafe and directions. Well situated 10 mins away from Chichester. Royal Oak pub 20 min walk away was perfect for a pint and with great food. Good walks locally, recommend the Trundle with fantastic views. Only minor gripe was not enough matching glassware and crockery- but certainly did not detract from a super break

The Run is a beautiful spacious holiday cottage in a quiet rural location. Easy parking and nice little outside seating. We loved the layout of the cottage, very practical. The kitchen was very well equiped. Owner was very helpful. The cottage could perhaps do with a bit more decoration to make it feel more cozy. When it comes to cleanliness we don’t like finding leftovers from previous stays in cupboards and fridge. Compared to other cottages we stayed in in the past we feel like the cottage is overprized.

The location of The Run is perfect. It's quiet but easy driving access to Chichester, Goodwood and the surrounding areas. You can walk to a good pub or two and there's loads of longer walks to choose from as you are so close to the Centurion Way. The property is in a small steading of other (maybe 4 or 5) similar properties which are all very neat and well kept.
Bedrooms are a good size, plenty of storage and comfy beds. Bathrooms modern with good showers. Good appliances in the kitchen which is well equipped too.
Lounge is spacious. If you want a big TV this could be the only downside, as the TV is quite small compared to what I guess most people have at home. But we didn't watch any TV so no worries there.
We were two couples that stayed and we have rebooked for next year.
