A red-brick cottage and Shepherd’s hut in a magical garden with a cookery school and views over the South Downs

Owners Les and Louise, passionate foodies, run an award-winning bread-making school where you can perfect your baking skills. They also host pop-up supper clubs and seasonal events, run Indian cookery and chocolate-making classes.

Home-laid eggs, home-buzzed honey and a freshly baked loaf are waiting to help you settle into your charming, beamed cottage – the Shepherd’s hut for overflow is in the garden. Find a huge fireplace, pretty bedrooms, a dinky country kitchen and colourful garden views. Spot many birds, squirrels, rabbits and wild deer, snooze in the sunny conservatory.

The market town of Steyning is a five-minute drive for shops and plenty of places to eat, or you can walk less than a mile to a good pub with big gardens, The Fountain at Ashurst. There are many thriving vineyards nearby for tastings.
