4 The Clockhouse , Midhurst - sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

4 The Clockhouse is a first-floor apartment set in the heart of Midhurst market town. With its own parking space around the back, you couldn’t be in a better spot to enjoy this historic village. Within easy walking distance are the Cowdray ruins, one of England’s most important Tudor homes, visited once by Queen Elizabeth I and King Henry VIII. If you’re a fan of polo, Midhurst is a prime spot to be in the spring season as well.

This large apartment now features two spacious bedrooms. The first bedroom is a double bedroom with a large wardrobe, providing ample storage space. The second bedroom is furnished with a luxurious king-size bed with views overlooking the bustling city centre below. With a large, comfortable living space, this is an excellent base to come home to in the evenings after a day of exploring. The high ceilings and walls make both rooms light and airy, creating a tranquil retreat away from the hustle and bustle of the streets below.

The kitchen is on a slightly higher level and is fully equipped with everything you will need to self-cater during your stay (although there are plentiful pubs, restaurants, and cafes around). The kitchen includes a kettle, dishwasher, washing machine, cooker, microwave, fridge, and freezer. There is also a dining table with seating for four, so there is plenty of space for just yourself or to entertain friends while you are away.

The apartment has a shower room and separate WC. Additionally, the property now has newly installed WiFi for guests to use. One parking space is allocated to this property.

Note - The apartment has a communal entrance.

In recent years Midhurst was voted the most desirable place to live in the whole of the UK - some accolade! It is a quintessential English town, with period properties from a variety of eras lining the main streets and a collection of eclectic shops and restaurants making it even more appealing. Much of the town is still owned by the famous Cowdray Estate which hosts the polo season, attracting visitors from all over the world. The famous Cowdray Ruins lie on the northern outskirts of the town and there is a superb farm shop and coffee shop to enjoy. The South Downs surround the town and for keen walkers there are so many beautiful places to explore.

The old market town of Petworth lies just to the east, with Petworth House being an interesting place to visit, along with Petworth Park. Goodwood lies just a few miles to the south and attracts visitors from all over the world to its famous motor sports events and horse racing events. Chichester lies about 11 miles south of Midhurst and has a world famous cathedral, which dominates the city. It also has the renowned Chichester Festival Theatre. There are number of good quality golf courses in the region, including Cowdray Park and 2 courses at Goodwood.

The south coast, with many picturesque beaches including West Wittering's sandy dunes, is about 6 miles south of Chichester. Midhurst is easily accessible by road and there is a mainline train station to London at Haslemere, just to the north.

Amazing Propert
Very pleasantly surprised when we arrived at this wonderful apartment right in the centre of this beautiful little market town. The property had more than enough room, was very clean and the facilities were excellent. Parking and access to the property was easy, although having to wait for the electronic gates to close before you can park in the allocated space is somewhat annoying as they take an age to close. Overall we loved this stylish, elegant apartment and we will definitely return, highly recommended.

A stop off in Midhurst
A lovely little spot to stay in Midhurst. Nice and convenient. With a couple of touches it would take it from good to great. I'd definitely recommend to others.

December in Midhurst
Great location, very nice neighbours. Flat was well equipped and very comfortable although several lights in living room and bedroom didn't work. The instructions on arrival paperwork for gate opening were not clear, neighbours were very helpful and said it happens a lot with flat 4 visitors.. No direct access to building, have to haul luggage along a side street. The lack of WiFi was very disappointing and scored a low mark for value for money.

A bit tired
The flat is in a lovely building which even though it is on the main road as it doesn't suffer from road noise. The one parking space allocated to the flat is only suitable for a small car. The decription of the car park entry button is incorrect in the information. There is no entry to the building from the car park. The only access is via the front door. There is no information in the flat - rubbish/recycling (although there is a recycling calendar - but no where to put it. We ended up taking all our rubbish home)/facilities in Midhurst/ How things work in the flat e.g. heating. It seemed as though the boiler kept starting throughout the day. The items in the flat are tired. The seals on both the fridge and freezer are coming away from the doors and the inside of the fridge looked stained. Many of the items of crockery have chips and there are only 2 teaspoons. We didn't use the oven, microwave, dishwasher or washing machine. The sofa is tired and uncomfortable. There were no batteries in the dvd remote. Wasn't able to use the newly installed wifi. In the bedroom the wooden base of the bed sticks out beyond the matress restricting space around the bed. Mattress uncomfortable. Space is also restricted by bookcases in the room. The was no lightbulb in one of the bedside lamps. The shower, due to the shape of the shower enclosure, access is limited and may not be suitable for everybody.

Great Spot
Great property in the heart of the area. Only fault in the house is in the master bedroom the incredibly loud water system goes off at random points in the night. The check in instructions were also not super clear. Also worth mentioning that for the allocated car space, I had a golf and it was a tight squeeze, with the gate opening across the space I think would struggle to fit in anything longer that that. All things are suggestions from a guest but the actual property area/space/cleanliness were all fantastic. Thank you.

A Week at the Clockhouse
Great place to stay and spacious. Generally clean, but a bit dusty in the corners/ venetian blinds etc. Bed was comfortable but very low - a bit of a struggle to get up from if you are no longer in the first flush of youth! Wardrobe shelves are full of linen - would be great to make at least a couple free for guests to use Service was generally good all via email - but instructions for parking space could be clearer - none of the spaces are numbered and ended up in wrong space as wasn't clear it was actually the one behind the gate. Instructions on driving in, waiting for gate to close etc. would have been helpful . Also instructions could have been clearer on which button inside the gate to press! Sitting room very comfortable with great sofa to lounge on. Good sized TV . Kitchen diner great size with plenty of facilities. It would be good if at least one cupboard could be cleared of the owner's possessions to make space for a larder/store cupboard Glasses, crockery, cutlery etc could do with a refresh. What is there is a bit limited and showing its age a bit. A welcome pack for the flat which could also include instructions for appliances, where the dustbins are etc would be a good idea for holiday lets Overall though very enjoyable stay and would definitely use again

Ok but could be better
The flat is nice and in a great location. However, the code to enter residents carpark was incorrect, can see this has been pointed out to letting agent in other reviews on other sites in the past and clearly they have not bothered to amend their records. Parking space barely large enough for small car with mirrors folded in, residents take up most of the space with little consideration for others. Inside, flat not very clean, lots of clutter left by owner. Poor drainage in shower area, water almost up over the shower tray, boiler had no pressure and needed topped up during our stay. Also no wi-fi, this should be a given in this day and age and needs to be addressed.

Not cleaned on arrival
We were asked to delay entry for extra cleaning only to find when we entered the property it had not been cleaned. We made contact with Henry Adams and the boss of the cleaning company arrived within the hour who was shocked at the condition we had found it in and they then gave the flat a thorough clean and then left it in a satisfactory condition for us to start our holiday. At this time of covid 19 restrictions we felt that the flat was very cluttered with the owners belongings which would not have been there. We do have to say that our complaint was handled very well by the Henry Adams staff.

Midhurst few days
A pleasant stay at the Clockhouse. Comfy bed and very quiet despite its useful position in the Main Street so we took advantage of shops and inns around. Really nice flat, but no WiFi and almost impossible to park an suv in the designated spot. Needs a mirror in the bedroom!!

Perfect location with generous proportions
I stayed in The Clockhouse for a month whilst waiting to move to my new home. I was pleasantly surprised by the space and light. The agent was very accommodating and I thoroughly recommend both the agent Henry Adams and this property.

Great apartment...
Last minute booking for this superb character apartment, right in the centre. Better than the photos. Bed a bit on the low side, but comfortable. Not advertised as having WiFi - which I didn’t notice when I booked. However we could get BT WiFi-fon on a paid service - so we could get on line. Well equipped and spotlessly clean.
