The Bothy

The Bothy is a luxury, self-catering cottage nestled next to a beautiful, Grade II Listed walled garden, offering a truly unique getaway at the heart of the South Downs National Park. Renovated in 2018 and furnished to the highest standard, it is a subtle blend of home comforts and technology whilst retaining many of the original period features. Believed to date back to 1820, The Bothy was used to accommodate the farm labourers working at Coates Castle.

Making it an ideal location for exploring the South Downs National Park, historic market towns of Petworth, Midhurst, Arundel and Chichester and weddings at Dorset House, Fitzleroi Barn, Upwaltham Barn and Bignor Park.
