"Sarah and her family have created something really special here. Soho House ++"
“The build quality is outstanding, the eye for design exemplary, quality of fixtures and fittings first class. It really is a beautiful home. The little bunkbeds are wonderfully built - gorgeous little touches like the side lights set into the woodwork. The bathroom fittings are really lovely, the nicest I've ever seen frankly. The kitchen is build from reclaimed wood and is stunning. We have a very active dog so the footpaths and woodlands right on your doorstep are great. It's a lovely peaceful setting well-away from the A24. We stayed during constant storms and it was nice to hunker down on the super comfy sofa - when the sun did finally come out we ventured off to Brighton for a wander round the lanes and of course Fish & Chips. Just book this place, you won't be disappointed. Thanks Sarah, see you soon we hope!”

"We stayed at Sarah's over Christmas and had the most magical stay."
“Everything was really just perfect, the location was idyllic and the house itself was absolutely gorgeous. We loved the large kitchen space (especially for cooking our Christmas dinner) and the bedrooms where great, so cosy and the beds and pillows where very comfortable. Sarah's little touches really made the whole stay feel extra special, there was a little Christmas tree, fresh flowers and mince pies left out for us - so appreciated! The whole place is really a dream and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway, it was so quiet and such lovely surroundings for a walk (however we really just stayed in the home as we didn't feel the need to go anywhere!) Lots of board games in the cupboards and a great amount of space to chill. The bathroom was also just divine - so clean and we loved the space in there for getting ready in the mornings! We can't thank you enough!”

"We knew that our girls weekend was going to be special but The Pump House was even better in person."
“Sarah was an incredibly friendly host right from our first communication and answering all of our questions . The position of the Pump House was tucked away, surrounded by hills, forests and sheep and the views were something else, especially waking up first thing in the morning and even in the rain! We had everything we needed provided for us - the cinnamon buns were a wonderful treat with a cup of tea and the place was so cosy with the gorgeous interiors and underfloor heating! This was especially needed after we managed a cold 10k walk that was found in a walk map on the coffee table! We also put our friendship to the test with a game of scrabble after cooking dinner in the stunning kitchen. The beds were incredibly comfy too and the bath/shower made our weekend even more relaxing. Thank you Sarah!”

"Lovely stay in a beautiful house which felt like home."
“Loved all the open fields with public footpaths literally on the doorstep. Great for our dog. The house was warm, spotless and beautifully furnished with everything thought of. The cinnamon rolls, some of the best I’ve ever tasted. Definitely a great place to stay.”

"Couldn’t have had a better weekend."
“The place is so stunning and has a beautiful homey feel to it. The interior is beautiful, very well decorated and equipped. Everything was super fresh and clean, beds are incredibly comfortable. The place smelled lush and so did all the toiletries provided. Everything was well stocked. The kids loved playing with all the toys provided and enjoyed the outdoor space. The shower had very nice strong water pressure which was a huge plus. There was so much to do in the area and would have loved to stay longer will definitely be back and not to mention Sarah was a wonderful host super helpful and responsive. Highly recommend.”

"It was better equipped than some five star hotels I’ve stayed in!"
“Stunning lodge overlooking fields and woods. As you walk in you are immediately impressed by the decor. Modern but cosy. Sarah had left some fresh pastries which were divine!!! I loved the size of the main bedroom and bathroom. Bathroom is big! Double sinks, bath and a separate walk in shower which is also sizeable. The bathroom had all the amenities you could ever ask for. It was better equipped than some five star hotels I’ve stayed in. Body wash, shampoo, conditioner even BUBBLE BATH (loved that touch). The quality of these was fantastic too. The beds were the comfiest beds my friend and I have slept in! The quality of linen, pillows and duvet outstanding, it felt like sleeping in a cloud. Just a note that the house is not walking distance to the village but is only a 3 minute drive. You can get there safely through the fields and footpaths but will take you about 20 minutes. The Pump House is a must go to for a stunning and quiet getaway.”

"We truly were blow away by the surroundings, it was so peaceful and tranquil."
“We’re just back from a wonderful stay at The Pump House. Sarah was a brilliant host and was very accommodating with our little one - she provided a travel cot, high chair and he loved all the toys especially the fire engine. There are lots of local amenities, nothing is too far away. The actual house is absolutely perfect - the finishes are done to the best standards. There are so many little useful hidden gems in the house. Ultimately it’s everything it says it is and more. It’s a truly special place. We will definitely be back again and can’t wait for our next visit!”

"Faultless! Truly the best that Airbnb could possibly offer..."
“A beautiful view, amazing bed, luxurious linens and towels. Our first impression was a lovely vase of country flowers and fresh croissants awaiting our arrival… the house was decorated as if by a designer, and the kitchen lacked for nothing. A very enjoyable stay, thank you Sarah!”

"It was like staying at a spa!"
“A stunning conversion, finished to a very high spec. It was like staying at a spa! The view was beautiful as were the nearby walks. Chance to do some wildlife watching too. A great family get away. Dogs enjoy themselves too! All amenities you would need on a stay away from home available. Would recommend the local butcher if planning a bbq. Loved it so much will be returning in the summer!”

"It was so much more gorgeous in person."
“The Pump House was stunning, we had high expectations from what we saw in the pictures but it was so much more gorgeous in person. My family and I had a beautiful time and Sarah was the friendliest most responsive host I've ever come across. So warm, informative and quick to reply, made the stay extra sweet. The attention to detail in the property blew us away and really made us appreciate the space so much more, not to mention the views. We were blessed with lovely weather so really got to enjoy the outdoor space. Really looking forward to another stay at The Pump House in the near future!”

"We loved every second of our trip to The Pump House."
“We were met with delicious pastries and the house greatly exceeded our expectations. The Pump House is unbelievably beautiful. There are so many personal touches and it was finished to such a high standard with everything thought of, even down to the lighting in every room. There were small reading lights built into the bunk beds and the choice of dimmer or normal switches for lighting in the lounge which were such a great addition. The location is perfect with the choice of Horsham, the South Coast or simply enjoying the peaceful walks on the doorstep. Our mini schnauzer puppy enjoyed the field at the back of the barn the most! Top tip for people visiting with dogs, take a trip to Ferring Beach and stop at the Bluebird Cafe for brunch or fish and chips. We took full advantage of the outdoor BBQ and games for quality family time. Thank you for a great time!”

"We have already booked to go back!"
Wow! What a stunning place. We really didn’t want to leave. My family and our dog absolutely loved it too. Big open fields to walk and run in. The house was spotless and has absolutely everything we needed. So beautifully decorated and laid out. The bed was SOOOOO comfortable! Got some great pubs nearby too. We have already booked to go back!”
