The pod is perfect and lovely for a short break, it was also stocked with treats by the owners for us to enjoy. The shower was hot and bathroom facilities worked well. The pod was spotless on arrival, and key entry system worked well, we were left undisturbed throughout our stay but any queries quickly answered. Both Chichester and Arundel are easily accessible and well worth a visit, as is the Black Rabbit at Arundel for lunch or dinner.
