There are two large, bright rooms with great views over the “Wildbrook Meadows” towards the South Downs. One Double room with an en-suite bathroom and one Twin room with private bathroom. Both rooms have TVs and tea and coffee making facilities. There is a main line station in the village with services to London and the South Coast and Barn House Lodge is within forty minutes’ drive of Gatwick. Guests can leave their car here and take the train to the airport (approximately 30 minutes) for a small extra charge.

Within easy driving distance are the coastal cities of Brighton, Chichester and Portsmouth and inland we have Arundel with its spectacular castle and cathedral, and Goodwood famous for horse racing and motor racing. The South Downs are close for walking as are several beaches on the South Coast. We are well placed to visit Petworth House, and Parham House which are close by.

Why not try some local gliding! The Southdown Gliding Club www.sgc1.org is one of the oldest and best run gliding clubs in the country. It is situated amongst beautiful countryside only 2 miles from where gliding started as a sport on the picturesque South Downs and is now located just west of Storrington (near Amberley and Pulborough). Nowadays, the club's sleek modern gliders can fly over 100mph and cover distances of hundreds of kilometres in a single day! The club welcomes visitors and you can book a trial lesson or enrol on a one-day 'Introduction to Gliding' course to discover this amazing sport for yourself.
