Wonderland Airstream

Meet this stylish 1965 'Biba' style silver-bullet. Her name is Bibarella! She's a completely self-contained Airstream with a king size bed at one end and sumptuous lounge at the other (which also turns into a bed... but who would want to share her!). A wood burner keeps her toasty, and there's a kitchen with essentials - gas hob, sink and fridge...and wine-fridge (of course!)...and a bathroom with shower and eco-toilet. All looking out over dreamy scenery of the stunning South Downs. Coming to stay is like having your own private wildlife park to enjoy for your stay and there are wandering peacocks, chickens, ducks, geese, the occasional swan, pheasant and resident kingfisher. Nature is all around you - there are no human sounds – only birds and animals. There is so much relaxed enjoyment for you, from reclining in a hammock, boating on the lake (you’re also welcome to fish on the lake if you have your own rod) using the trampoline and ball games on the field, having a game of giant chess on the Spa deck, having a picnic in the treehouse, or going for some of the glorious and numerous footpath walks around the area. To make your stay extra special, you can arrange with us for a hamper full of delights from the Sussex Fine Food Company to be delivered to your Dome ready for your arrival (£50 (without wine or £65 with wine and a luxury £100 option) which are full of delicious selections of Sussex cheese, local charcuterie, biscuits for cheese, chutney, chocolate, and local wine. There is a stunning garden with tree-house and lake. And plenty of walks locally including the South Downs way which runs just on the outskirts of our home. The village of Henfield is a 20 minute walk which has all the amenities you could need (note the main store closes at 9pm!) and there are plenty of pubs within walking distance. And an incredible one within a 10 minute drive. You're welcome to walk around the scenic fields/ garden, use the tree-house and lake (at your own responsibility). The 'yard' and fields around us are working areas so please keep to the garden. Although it's likely I won't be around in person, there are often people around (partner, or work-away helpers) to assist, and I'm always at the end of a phone if needed. As an area of outstanding natural beauty, the attraction of the neighbourhood is all in the nature, and green fields. Amazingly for a modern world there is complete silence aside from nature which makes for an incredibly peaceful stay! West Sussex is stunning...with lots of cute local towns featuring tea-rooms and wonkey houses to visit (the South Downes Way - a popular cycle-route is 5 minutes from the house) as well as several local vineyards to visit in the area, some National Trust properties - Nymans and Wakehurst Place amoungst others to visit, and of course the quirky city of Brighton is just a 20 minute drive away. Some particular recommendations of ours are as follows; For the best gastro pub head to the Ginger Fox. Only ten minutes away it is by far the yummiest in the area. However, do book first as it's popular! Tel The Royal Oak is a traditional oak beamed pub – fantastic Sunday lunches – in Wineham also a ten-minute drive towards Haywards Heath. The Wheatsheaf – which is newly refurbished and is a laid-back but still nicely styled and does excellent Brazilian food (thanks to the Brazillian Chef)! West Sussex is growing in reputation for it's vineyards - especially for sparkling wine, and Bolney Winery and Café is open every day and you can arrange a tour, or book one of their food and wine evenings - check their website for details, and be sure to book for the tours (drop-in for the cafe); Local food suppliers Henfield has two main shops – Budgens which is very expensive but does have some interesting local cheeses and chocolates, and a Costcutter for budget. There is a great veg shop called Jeremy's in the high street too which also sells local cheese and milk too. The best butcher is in Partridge Green (best sausages ever) – S K Hutchings - High St, Partridge Green, RH13 8HU. Cider! – Wobblegate – Old Mill Farm, Cowfold Road, Bolney RH17 5SE Parking is freely available outside the house, and the village is a short 10 minute walk away, with cycle paths in the form of the South Downs way 5 minutes from our home.
