Railway carriage accommodation with tennis court! | House in Slindon
2 Bedroom House in Walberton, Slindon
Hidden in the scenic grounds of a farmhouse in Slindon village, near Arundel, is this glorious 100 year old railway carriage with 2 bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen as well as a larger living/playing area next to the carriage. Guests also have use of the private tennis court in the garden.
The carriage has been lovingly restored and guests and will appreciate the high finish with incredible attention to detail. There is a table with 4 chairs, a sofa and a small television in the living room together with a bijou cooking area with combi oven/microwave, electric hob, sink, under counter fridge and simple cooking equipment. The master bedroom is small but has a full size 4ft 6ins bed and there is a tiny second bedroom with full size bunk beds.
The bathroom has a shower, a sink, a heated towel rail and a normal flushing loo (no chemical loo here!) but do be aware that this room is very compact so it may not suitable for those of a larger build or guests with restricted mobility.
Adjacent to the railway carriage is ‘the station’ which guests may use on request if they would appreciate extra space for relaxing, watching TV and playing one of the many board games we have available for family fun. This is a really good size living room with a larger table and chairs, a washing machine and airer.
Both the carriage and 'the station' have central heating and radiators throughout, so it is suitable for stays throughout the year.
The railway carriage is situated well away from the road in a tranquil and beautiful spot next to the tennis court in the garden, and adjacent to National Trust woods. The carriage is close to pony paddocks and stables on the other side of a fence so will appeal to horse lovers - but if you are allergic to horses or their environment this probably isn’t the place for you! Do be aware as well that the carriage is immaculate – freshly restored and clean but as this is a very rural environment the occasional spider or fly may come to join the party from time to time.
Guests are very welcome to borrow tennis rackets and balls and use the court. There is outside seating for guests to enjoy during the warmer months and a lovely BBQ area.
There is no internet at the railway carriage but 4G works perfectly so guests can hotspot from their mobile. Wifi can be accessed in the garden nearer the farmhouse.
Slindon is a beautiful village between Chichester and Arundel. There is a village shop, café and a pottery shop. There are incredible walks/bike rides right from the door either into National Trust Woods or up into the South Downs. The nearest beach is about 15 minutes drive away and there is the fun of Arundel Castle and many other cultural activities for all ages to enjoy close by!
