“The apartment was perfect for our short stay. Situated in the heart of Chichester, with lots of places to visit close to Chichester, too. The South Downs and coast on your doorstep perfect for walks and views. Lots of shops and amenities in walking distance. The flat itself was enough for a short stay with a full kitchen setup and a cosy bedroom.”

It has everything you need for a comfortable stay and it was easy to check in. The host was helpful and I didn’t encounter any issues during my stay. Would stay here again.”
