Secluded Thatched Cottage Surrounded By Woodland

Crawley, West Sussex

Located in Crawley, West Sussex, Coldharbour Farmhouse is a seventeenth-century thatched cottage that sleeps 10 guests in five bedrooms. The property is nestled in a secluded spot surrounded by woodlands and fields, offering a perfect retreat in the heart of rural Sussex. Guests have the entire house and large garden to themselves, with ample parking available. The farmhouse is a two-minute drive from the village of Turners Hill and is located 35 miles from central London and 10 minutes south of Gatwick.

The interior of Coldharbour Farmhouse is comfortably furnished with a mix of vintage and modern pieces. The property features three double bedrooms, one queen size double, and two singles, along with one bathroom, a separate toilet, and a shower and toilet in a separate outside hut. There is parking space for up to four cars, and a cot bed and high chair are available upon request. Pets are allowed, with a fee of £35 per dog per stay, but the property is not suitable for all dogs due to the presence of wildlife in the area.

Guests are advised to navigate the property with caution due to low beams and narrow walkways, and there is no wheelchair access into the farmhouse. Other safety precautions include supervision of small children around the pond on site and the attic twin bedroom accessed via steep and narrow steps. The property has a security camera near the gate entrance at the top of the drive. Guests are reminded of house rules, such as no parties or events, proper disposal of waste, and leaving the property in a clean and tidy condition upon departure.

In addition to the house rules, guests are encouraged to enjoy the rustic charm of Coldharbour Farmhouse and make use of the complimentary bag of wood for the living room fire. The property is in a rural area, with muddy country lanes and footpaths, so guests are advised to remove outdoor shoes before entering the house. Check-out time is before 10 am, and guests are expected to leave the property in good condition, including cleaning dishes, stripping used beds, and taking away any leftover food. The minimum stay is three nights, with a four-night minimum over bank holidays, and bookings are accepted weekly or for specific shorter periods.
