We stumbled across Withy Farm looking for a quiet place to stay for a night on the English south coast. At first we were skeptical because it wasn't on the coast at all, but the charm convinced us to book there. What a hit!!! S. and H. are such great hosts and such lovely people that we immediately thought we were staying with friends. Feel like home! Oh thank you! In the evening we had nice conversations and then went to bed blissfully. The next morning there was plenty and variety to eat, much of it from our own production. Yes, and then there were the pigs, the goats, the geese, the chickens, the cats and the dogs. Cuddling, scratching, stroking without end. Thank you for letting us share a brief moment with you!!

    Lovely, character hotel close to the centre. We had a great family room which had a separate room for the children, very much appreciated with older ones! Very nice breakfast and friendly staff. Pool was also fun and a bonus! Highly recommended.
