Guests say
The Dairy in Chichester is a well-received cottage, praised for its spaciousness, peacefulness, and suitability for dog owners. It serves as a good base for exploring the local area, with a special mention of its convenient location for visiting Chichester and Portsmouth. Guests appreciate the en-suite bedrooms and the welcoming host, though some noted the closure of the local pub and a desire for more mugs.
The cottage is generally considered clean and tidy. However, one mention of cobwebs suggests room for improvement in this area, hence the score is not perfect.
The location is highly regarded for its peaceful rural setting and proximity to Chichester, Portsmouth, and the South Downs, making it an ideal base for exploration.
Guests find the cottage cosy, comfortable, and very welcoming, with spacious rooms that contribute to a relaxing stay.
The facilities are well-received with the benefit of en-suite bedrooms. However, the closure of the village pub and the limited number of mugs indicate that some aspects could be enhanced.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches from the host in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.
