The Experience

Set back from the main road, up a neatly gravelled drive, is this shining extension to the owner’s home. Inside the open-plan space is warm, stylish, airy and light, with a sweep of oak floor heated underfoot and lovely high beams above. Kick back on the suave leather sofa and Eames lounge chairs with a good book. Play a movie on the huge, Smart TV.

Behind a white muslin curtain is the bedroom space with a king-size bed. The shower room is smart and the kitchen is handy for knocking up an omelette or making a Nespresso. There are at least three good pubs within walking distance if you don’t fancy cooking.

Birdwatchers will be happy, Pagham Harbour Nature Reserve is close. Glorious Goodwood is a 15-minute drive, the beach is a 15-minute stroll, and the Lamb Inn is opposite. A brilliant base for those who like to get out and about on one of the least developed stretches of the Sussex coast.

Reviews

Lois is a delightfully friendly and enthusiastic host who will make everyone feel at home. This is such a good place for travellers wanting superb home comforts in an attractive setting, from where they can explore the interesting spots in the surrounding areas.

Jennifer, London

This is a great property, very well equipped, comfortable and clean, exactly as the website says. Location couldn't be better with good pubs and small supermarkets close by. There are amazing walks from the property to Pagham harbour and beautiful beaches just a short drive away.


Yvonne, London

What delightful accommodation.Bright,airy and very modern.Great power shower,comfortable bed,which was much appreciated after all our long bracing walks,not far from the front door. Would love to revisit next time we are in the area.


Bob and Wendy, London

Excellent stay at the Dray House. Beautifully furnished in great style, just as the photos in fact. Owner friendly and welcoming. Lots of things to do in the area , Nature reserves, West Dean, Goodwood,Chichester etc. Plenty of places to eat too ( great lunch at Crab and Lobster Sidlesham ) although not everyone open due to Covid restrictions. Would very happily stay here again


Jackie, Milton Keynes

We would highly recommend a stay at the Drayhouse. The accomodation and facilities are excellent and Lois is on hand should you need any help. There are numerous nature walks within walking distance of the Drayhouse and your vehicle is safe and secure within the gated property if you enjoy walking. We would not hesitate to re-visit.


Location

The neighbourhood

You're in the village of Nyetimber which has three good pubs, a supermarket, and a tea room. It's a 15-minute walk to the stony beach - seaside shops, ice cream parlours, 50s vibe, and best of all not too busy. The Pagham Harbour Nature Reserve (15-minute drive) is an important wetland for wildlife - spot black-tailed godwits and egrets. Chichester, West Wittering and Arundel are all close.

Local points of interest from Mike & Lois Hendry

  • Unashamedly targeted at the luxury end of the self-catering market, The Dray House enjoys the patronage of the discerning guest. With its light and spacious bright contemporary feel which is warm and cosy all year round.
  • During Roman times Pagham Harbour was a primary seaport for Southern England which continued until devastated by a huge storm in 1341. Today, a Local Nature Reserve, Pagham Harbour has become an internationally important refuge for migrant birds.
  • The Cathedral City of Chichester is close by, with its wide pedestrianised streets, excellent variety of shops and restaurants, acclaimed Festival Theatre and Pallant House Gallery.
  • Conveniently located for Goodwood Festival of Speed in July & the Festival of Revival in September.
  • Secure ample gated parking, with CCTV coverage. Garaging available on request.

Introducing

Mike & Lois Hendry

Over the years Mike and Lois have lovingly restored their home, The Maltings, and The Dray House, to a very high standard. They have chosen some interesting modern artwork for the walls and have really thought about what makes a place comfortable and easy for guests to use. They are happy to advise and are equally happy to let you get on with things yourself.
