Elm Lodge, Großes Familienhaus nahe dem Meer in Bognor Regis

Summary:

Six bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms and room for up to fourteen with the living-room sofa bed. Every bedroom has a queen-size bed; there are no single beds, and the house has three floors. There's a big wrap-around garden, a kitchen island, a home office, and parking for two or three cars at the back. The pier and seafront are about 12 minutes' walk, and Goodwood Motor Circuit is about 15 minutes by car.



The Space:

Sleeping

Bedrooms 1 to 6: one queen-size bed each (in UK terms, a generous double).

Living room: a sofa bed for two.

One bedroom is on the ground floor and the other five are upstairs. Linen, towels and toiletries are provided for everyone.



Bathrooms

Three full bathrooms. The family one has a freestanding tub alongside a walk-in shower; bedroom 2 has an en suite with a shower; and up on the top floor the shower sits over the bath. A separate WC adds a fourth toilet.



Kitchen and dining

A modern kitchen with an island, a dishwasher, an oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, toaster, kettle and coffee maker, and a dining table.



Living room

Sofas and a large TV, with space for the whole group. Guests say the bedrooms and living spaces feel bigger in person than in the photos.



Home office

A dedicated room with a desk and Wi-Fi.



Outside

A private garden that wraps around the house.



Everyday practicals

A washing machine and tumble dryer (in a small outbuilding by the back door), an iron, heating on each floor, smoke and carbon monoxide alarms.



Travelling with children

Children and babies are welcome, and the garden gives them room to play. There's no cot or high chair, so please bring a travel cot if you need one. One guest wrote that their grandchildren, aged one, two and three, loved it.



Groups and work teams

With six separate bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms and parking at the back, the house also suits colleagues on a job along the West Sussex coast; a guest here for work called it ideally placed.



Bringing your dog

Up to three dogs are welcome, and a pet fee applies.



Good to know

There are no single beds. On Goodwood event weekends the roads around Chichester get busy, so leave extra time. Check-out is at 11 am.



Guest Access:

Your group has the whole house and garden. Self check-in by lockbox is from 4 pm to 9 pm. Parking is at the rear, by the garage on Nyewood Lane (two vehicles or three small cars), with more free parking on Sylvan Way.



The Neighborhood:

A quiet residential road on the west side of Bognor Regis. On foot: the pier and seafront about 12 minutes, Hotham Park about 20, Butlin's about 27. By car: Fontwell Park racecourse 13 minutes, Goodwood Motor Circuit 15, Chichester Cathedral 15, Chichester Festival Theatre 17, Pagham Harbour nature reserve 20, West Wittering beach 22, Arundel Castle 22 and Goodwood House, home of the Festival of Speed, 24.



Getting Around:

Bognor Regis station is about 12 minutes' walk, with trains along the Sussex coast and up to London. Allow extra driving time on big Goodwood event days.
