Madehurst LodgeMadehurst Lodge is a splendid Grade II listed Georgian house of grand proportions, located in the village of Madehurst on the southern slopes of the South Downs National Park. Believed to have been built in the 1770s, it benefits from high ceilings and an abundance of natural light throughout. The house has the grand feel of a glorious bygone era.

The accommodation throughout proves enormously versatile. Adjoining the house is the North Wing, which can be used as a separate three bedroom annexe ideal for staff, guests or dependent relatives. Outbuildings include the stabling and stable cottage for which planning permission has been granted for conversion into further independent residential accommodation.

There are beautiful views from the house and fields across the Downs, along with immediate access to a network of footpaths and bridleways for wonderful walks and rides. A glorious walled garden encompassing almost one acre completes this arcadian setting.
