About this property
Nestled in a scenic countryside location overlooking fields of horses, yet just three miles from a beach, is this high-end pod, Filbert Pod. This studio-style open-plan pod is a wonderful choice for couples eager to enjoy the wonders of West Sussex and escape normality for a little while. Enter the property via your own private decking and step into the modest but amply-equipped living space; settle down on the sofa and create a fun-filled itinerary for your trip, before gathering at the dining table and enjoying a home-cooked meal prepared in the kitchen. Why not close the day in your private, outdoor hot tub? De-stress among the bubbles and stargaze in a secluded spot, sitting next to the filbert nut tree and adjacent to a 15th-century, listed dovecote. As night rolls in, tuck yourself up in the double bed to catch your rest, before awakening with a refreshing shower. Admire the idyllic splendour that surrounds the pod with a refreshing beverage on the patio, whilst you contemplate where to visit next. Filbert Pod is a truly inviting home for you and your partner. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1088826, 111080, together sleeping up to 6 guests.

The pod is amazing and the hot tub was a real bonus. Would definitely recommend! Many thanks to Pauline and Paul for the little extras like the Gin and Vodka bottles which were delicious. Could not recommend the filbert pod more.

Pauline was extremely welcoming and checked all was OK throughout stay without being intrusive. The pod contained everything we needed and more. We were welcomed with milk, jam, flavoured gin, vodka and procecco. The tub was at temperature throughout so we could relax at the end of each day.

The owners were really helpful as well as my car battery decided to die! They went out of their way to come out with jump leads etc, thank you so much! Beautiful surroundings. The pod was beautifully clean and lovely little touches, like homemade small jars of Blackberry Gin, Blackberry Vodka and Jam :) Hot tub was really clean and private. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting a relaxing romantic break. Lydia & Rich :)
