Stylish Countryside Retreat with Pool & Panoramic South Downs Views

Welcome to Treetops — a stylish countryside escape with far-reaching South Downs views and a private heated pool.

Set in a peaceful, elevated position, this five-bedroom retreat is perfect for design-conscious travellers, families, or groups of friends seeking space, style, and privacy. South and south-west facing, the house is flooded with natural light and offers breathtaking sunsets and dark skies ideal for stargazing.

The heart of the home is a spacious, open-plan kitchen with modern aluminium-framed glass doors, flowing seamlessly into the garden. There are two lounges on the ground floor — one featuring a cosy log burner — and elegant details throughout including polished concrete and oak flooring. The fully private garden surrounds the heated swimming pool, with uninterrupted views across the rolling countryside.

Treetops also features a gated driveway with space for up to five cars, and is ideally located for walks, pub lunches, or a quick trip into Brighton.

We recommend Treetops for 8 adults and 2 children, based on the bedroom and bathroom layout.

❄️ Winter at Treetops
Treetops isn’t just for summer — it’s the ultimate cosy winter escape. Think crackling fires, misty morning walks, and starlit skies above the South Downs. The spacious kitchen is perfect for comforting meals with friends and family, while nearby country pubs serve some of the best Sunday roasts around, complete with roaring fires. Whether it’s board games by the hearth or bracing countryside walks followed by long soaks in the bath, Treetops is designed for unforgettable winter moments.

We had a wonderful week. The property was fabulous, clean and very well equipped. The pool was a good size and the children loved it. The garden was a super place to relax in and completely dog friendly. All in all the place was better than advertised and we would definitely rent again

Amazing house

We had a fantastic stay in Treetops as a short break with the family (grandparents plus family of 5 with 2 dogs). The house has absolutely everything you need for a relaxing stay. There are 5 large bedrooms and 3 bathrooms over the 2 upper floors. The downstairs has plenty of space and some lovely areas to sit and relax with amazing views across the countryside. The outside area is equally stunning with plenty of places to relax, a beautiful swimming pool and table tennis and a secure garden for the dogs to run around in. The local area is lovely with plenty of walks both straight from the door and within a short drive. Sophia was a great host, always at the end of the phone if we needed her, and giving plenty of advice on local things to do and places to eat etc. I would highly recommend staying here and would love to come back again one day!
