Beautifully designed with quality fittings, the well equipped kitchen includes: a large sink, dishwasher, large American style fridge freezer, induction hob, electric oven, microwave, electric kettle, espresso coffee machine, pots, pans, and utensils, chopping boards, knife block, crockery, cutlery, mugs, and glasses. Everything you might need.

Just off the kitchen, our utility room houses a washing machine, tumble dryer, sink, iron and ironing board. Teabags or green waste such as peelings or cores can go into the green bin also situated in the utility room. Glass/plastic /tins can go into the recycling bins outside.

We actively support local businesses which is why our complementary coffee is made by one of our partners, Sussex based coffee merchant, Edge who have been roasting coffee since 1981. Their Roastery, EDGE Café and Store is located nearby, just outside the historical town of Arundel.

As well as our favourite coffee from Edge, we provide the basic items - sugar, tea, salt, pepper and olive oil. Graffham Village Shop is open from 7am to 7pm and is just a 2 mile walk from the house. If there is anything else you need or have any questions, please contact us.

Honey made from Westerlands bees is available to buy at £5 per small jar. Please leave your money in the honesty pot provided. Proceeds go to our replanting of edible hedgerows, which feed our bees and include winter flowering jasmine, pink elderflower, red and white hawthorn and bird cherries.

Our complementary hand soap, body wash, shampoo and conditioner are made by Faith in Nature and are entirely in keeping with our ethos here at Westerlands. They are ethical, sustainable, cruelty free, recycled, recyclable, natural, vegan and biodegradable. We refill bottles in our laundry room so please don’t throw empty bottles away, just ask for a refill.

All our household cleaning products are made by Ecover. We also launder our linen with Ecover. Made in a zero waste certified factory with plant-based, biodegradable ingredients and stored in a bottle made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic and refilled in our laundry room.

Water is from our borehole on the South Downs and is pure, sweet and safe to drink. Central heating, hot water and towel rails are all heated by the farm’s biomass renewable heating system. The house is on mains electricity and connected to the internet via high speed fibre.

We provide a bundle of logs (enough for 2 fires), eco wooden wool fire starters and matches. More firewood is available to buy from us on request at £12 per bag. If you wish to use the BBQ during your stay you can buy charcoal from the Co-op in Petworth.

As well as tables and benches for dining under the chestnut pergola, there are other seating areas and benches in the large private fenced in garden.

We provide a stair gate, travel cot, high chair and potty. If you need more than one of each, or anything else to make your stay more comfortable, please contact us so that we can organise for these to be at the house when you arrive.
