Treowstede
A wonderful converted barn complex in West Sussex set in pretty cottage gardens and farmlands
Period features, newly converted barns, threshing barn, pond, vegetable patch, cottage gardens and farmlands. Located 6 miles from Chichester.
Set in two acres of pretty gardens and overlooking farmlands, this property has two newly converted barns, once a cart barn and a dairy; these have been beautifully converted and joined together to make a wonderful space with a modern but still rural feel.
Inside the barn conversion you can see the attention to detail - the original flint walls and exposed oak beams blend wonderfully with an impressive floor to ceiling glass walkway. The interior is light and airy and would suit any homeware or lifestyle brands.
The threshing barn is completely unconverted and still in its original state which is rare and gives it a really special feel. This is a wonderful space which could be used for retreats, workshops, yoga, art, cooking, wellness etc as well as being a gorgeous space for photoshoots or a great space for cast and crew.
All the buildings are set in a 2 acre plot in rural Chichester with gardens that wrap around the buildings and a pond, vegetable patch and cottage garden. Views of open farmland to the rear complete this rural idyll.
Treowstede offers lovely accommodation for brand shoot and stays or retreats.
History and special interest
The farmstead dates from 1600 and in more recent history it belonged to actress Alexandra Bastedo and her playwright husband Patrick Garland, who frequently entertained and gave the village much to talk about with their celebrity guest list including the likes of Emma Thompson and Kenneth Branagh.
Bastedo squired so many animals that it became known as an animal sanctuary and our neighbours still talk fondly of the days when the donkeys were walked down to the local church to partake in the Christmas nativity and all the kids were allowed to go and pet the animals whenever they liked.
