Northfields House, Chichester, Sussex

14 - 28 14 Bed 30 Dining

Luxury country house sleeping 28 with a pool, tennis and squash court and games room, for short breaks in Chichester

Holiday Rental for Groups of Families and Friends. Northfields House, Chichester, Sussex, sleeps 14 - 28 in 14 bedrooms.

Northfields House is an exceptionally fine country home set in its own grounds of around three acres. There are few houses which provide such spacious accommodation with large rooms, splendid stone fireplaces, oak floors and other period features while at the same time retaining the warm cosy feeling of a family country home.

The house is available for self-catering although, if required, we are able to offer a fully catered service (please ask for menu) with an excellent chef and staff. We also specialise in helping to organise corporate events and provide a mixture of professionalism and informality which blends well with the relaxed and comfortable surroundings of Northfields House.

The grounds consist of well tended lawns, mown paths through the natural wooded area and some magnificent mature trees. There is a well maintained grass tennis court, (summer use only) a croquet lawn (summer use only/mallets and balls provided) a BBQ/terrace area seating up to 28, an outdoor heated swimming pool, (summer use only) table football and a squash court attached to the house with a viewing gallery off the upstairs landing.

Northfields House has been in the same family for nearly sixty years and the house and gardens are a reflection of the family’s sympathetic conservation of an original Edwardian Country House.

There are fourteen bedrooms, which sleep up to twenty eight guests, and eleven bathrooms. All the principal rooms face south and overlook some magnificent mature trees and a garden which has been extensively landscaped. The house is extremely well kitted out in every respect down to the smallest detail. It is very easy to turn up and immediately feel as though you are at home.

Sporting and leisure activities in the area include several golf courses, two at nearby Goodwood, plus a driving range at Chichester golf centre, horse racing at Goodwood and Fontwell Park, sailing at Chichester Harbour and wonderful walking and riding on the South Downs. Riding lessons available locally.
