The Experience

Tucked back from the road in its own courtyard, this unusual little house is right in the old heart of Chichester. Enter an open-plan sitting/dining room with a cute kitchen at the back, a warm cosy space of open beams and wooden floors… a dark olive wall here, a blue sofa there, local art, velvet cushions, a wood-burner. Generous Rachel leaves you logs, muffins, Montezuma chocolates, soft towels, flowers, soaps from Molton Brown – every little luxury. She also offers fresh meals and hampers, and her ‘Eat, Drink and Explore’ guide to the area she loves. Bed and bath lie at the top of the carpeted stair and all is airy, peaceful and light, with low beams, latch doors and a classic-but-modern feel. Come morning, head south for the sand dunes of West Wittering, or north for the paths of the South Downs National Park. Or stay put and explore one of the most civilised cities in England; cathedral, theatre, galleries and shops are a stroll away. There’s even private parking in your courtyard garden, but with the station so close, you could roll in by train.

Reviews

Alan and Lynda, Hayes

Lovely to be back at the Clock House. It was just as special as always and we are already looking forward to returning in October. Thanks again and see you soon, Alan and Lynda


Anthony and Gabrielle, Oxford

From the moment we put the key in the lock, this delightful little house was perfect for our visit to Chichester. We were greeted by delicious cakes for tea and on exploring the kitchen, found pastries, bread, milk, juice, tea and coffee all provided. The kitchen was fantastically equipped ... Molton Brown soaps and lotions ...and ..big, fluffy towels to choose from, a very comfy bed with the sunlight streaming in each morning; piles of DVD’s to watch, a fire set in the wood burner - not used in August I might add! The Clock House is a beautifully appointed and situated place - book it!


Jo and Ed, Hove

10 out of 10 - what can I say, a woman's heart is her home and after staying here it is clear to see the love, warmth and care that Rachel has put into the Clock House. Everyone needs a Rachel in their lives, I have decided!......Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful house...hope to return on an anniversary trip in the future.


Rod and Maureen, Saltdean

We came across the Clock House whist wandering around Chichester a couple of years ago and thought it looked a pretty place to stay - so here we are! But it is so much more than pretty - it has exceeded our expectations. Your attention to detail Rachel is amazing. We will be back! Thank you so much.


Becky and Tony, Essex

Our second stay at The Clockhouse was every bit as wonderful as our first. This beautiful house has everything needed for a relaxing and luxurious break. Rachel is attentive and helpful and goes above and beyond to ensure that everything is perfect. Tony successfully completed his dream of flying in a Spitfire from Goodwood this time which was amazing. All in all a faultless holiday which we will remember forever. Thank you Rachel.

Introducing

Rachel King

The owners live elsewhere and their daughter-in-law Rachel manages this house and two others. She is just 15 minutes away if you need any help but leaves you two beautifully-prepared booklets - one about the house and another about the area.
