This unique and individual property interlocks with similar style townhouses from the Georgian period. Set behind a private courtyard, it offers spacious comfortable accommodation for up to four guests.

Middle House is on two levels offering a spacious living room with wood burner, a separate dining room and a well-equipped kitchen. Upstairs are two bedrooms, both with kingsize beds. The family bathroom has a corner bath and shower above, and cloakroom on the ground floor. The courtyard is a display of colour every spring and summer and provides a private area to relax and enjoy outdoor dining.

Steyning is a vibrant small town that is well preserved, full of narrow streets with many timber framed Tudor style buildings as well as some fine Georgian townhouses. There is one main shopping street, the High Street, where Middle House is located. The high street retains many small, interesting, attractive, independent shops which is quite rare in today’s modern society so it makes Steyning an interesting town to browse. The Norman church contains some of the best Romanesque architecture in England. Have a look in Steyning Museum next to the library as it tells the story of the area from pre-history to the present day.

Just west of Steyning is the famous landmark of Chanctonbury Ring, high on the South Downs. It is a three mile walk picking up the South Downs Way from the Roundhill above the town. Chanctonbury Ring was originally an Iron Age hill fort, and following that, a Roman temple was located there. It is most famous though for the ring of beech trees planted in 1760 by Charles Goring. At 238 metres there are fine Downland views in each direction. Walk south from Chanctonbury and you reach Cissbury Ring, another Iron Age hill fort. It is a picturesque walk and a great introduction to the chalk Downland of Sussex. Just a short distance away and only 15 minutes by car, is Shoreham-by-Sea. The town sits on the estuary of the River Adur which flows out to sea right next to the town. Along the beach to the west of the town you will find the beach hut that is available for you to hire. Places to visit included Parham House and Gardens, Amberley Museum and St Mary’s House at Bramber. Shop, pub and restaurant in Steyning.
