This idyllic 17th Century Chapel with its fascinating history, located in the beautiful West Sussex countryside and surrounded by fabulous open views of the South Downs provides a truly unique experience. It is situated five miles from the historical city of Chichester, with its Festival Theatre and magnificent Cathedral, six miles from the beautiful golden sands of West Wittering beach, four miles from Goodwood and its renowned events and twelve miles from historic Arundel Castle, and is a beautiful area for walking, riding and cycling and offers a wealth of cultural and outdoor pursuits. The accommodation consists of large luxurious private suites, with en-suite bathrooms, a lounge area with comfortable sofa's/chairs. There are chairs should you wish to have a drink outside or relax and watch the beautiful sunset. There are two luxurious king suites in the 17th Century Chapel with its vaulted ceilings. They are definitely not just ordinary rooms. The Chapel Suites are situated in the quiet countryside in about an acre and half a mile from the next house. There are spectacular views, with a garden overlooking the rolling countryside. A car is useful as there no pavements.
Hello, we hope you choose to come and stay at Old Chapel Forge. Please be assured that I will do everything I can to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. We live in the house next door, which used to be the farmhouse, the Chapel was built by the land owners for the farm workers in the 17th century. I'm on hand most of the time if you need me, otherwise I will let you enjoy this beautiful property in peace.
The Chapel and Cottage Suites are situated in the quiet countryside in about an acre, and half a mile from the next house. There are spectacular views from every suite and the garden overlooks rolling open countryside.
