About this property

Spence Cottage, Birdham - a cottage that sleeps 5 guests in 2 bedrooms

Set in the countryside village of Birdham, Spence Cottage is in the perfect place to easily access the historic city of Chichester or West Wittering beach. On the road down to our famous golden sands you can easily skip the traffic and head over to our favourite sandy spot in no time. Close also to the sailing village Itchenor Spence Cottage is an excellent base for avid sailors or those who just want to be close to the south coast.
Spence Cottage has everything you need to effectively self-cater during your stay. The kitchen comes equipped with cooker, fridge, freezer, microwave, washer and dryer and lays open plan via a breakfast bar to the dining and living area.
The cottage has been decorated to a very high standard and the modern comfy living area is a peaceful space to unwind after a long day exploring ! Why not open up the tall French doors to the garden area and make use of the table and chairs for a spot of something fizzy.
Spence Cottage has two good sized bedrooms. One double and one twin bedroom with a family bathroom set between the two with bath and shower.
The cottage comes with two car parking spaces so there is ample room for couples travelling together or a family.

Birdham has a vibrant sailing community and Chichester Marina is within walking distance. In addition, the nearby sailing village of Itchenor can be accessed via a beautiful walk and the area is perfect for cyclists. One of the best sandy beaches in the south of England is only a few minutes away in West Wittering, which is also a haven for windsurfers and sun bathers. Birdham itself is a very pretty village with a variety of properties and it is well served by a good village shop.

Just to the north of the village is the famous cathedral city of Chichester. Dominated by the cathedral, the city centre's character and heritage has been preserved extremely well and it has a wide range of interesting shops and places to visit. The internationally renowned Festival Theatre attracts actors and visitors from all over the world. The nearby Goodwood Estate has both horse racing and its famous motor sports events, including the Festival of Speed and the Goodwood Revival. With so much to do, it is no surprise that this is such a popular holiday destination, but equally people often visit for a quiet, relaxing break

Nice cottage even during the winter months.
Great property, well furnished, clean, comfortable and in a good location for the area. Only problem was the mobile signal on both Vodaphone and Tesco Mobile was almost zero the entire stay, not that important as WiFi was good but worth knowing. Would definitely stay again.

A wonderful week
We had a lovely, relaxing week in Spence Cottage. It was spacious and very well equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen. The heating was easy to operate too! Being on a junction was not noisy, just unusual, and parking on site was so convenient. Spence Cottage gave us a great base for exploring the area and we loved the walks around Pagham Harbour to see the scenery and birds. Plenty of other places to visit on the peninsula and Chichester is only a short drive away. Arundel was easy to get to as well. A well-stocked village shop/Post Office 100 yards away and Little Waitrose in the Shell garage on the corner made for an easy life!

Lovely Cottage
Beautifully decorated cottage in a great location to give you access to West Wittering, Bracklesham Bay, Itchenor and many other lovely places on the peninsula. We had such a great time staying here, thank you! Well equipped kitchen and utility room. The customer service was excellent - would highly recommend staying here.

Cozy Cottage
The open space on the main level made the kitchen, dining, and living spaces very functional. The fully enclosed terrace off the living room made the outdoor space very safe for our young grandchildren when they visited. The fully equipped house made our visit very comfortable.
Stayed 11 nights in Oct 2022
