Stunning 6 bedroom converted barn nestled in Souths Downs; 5,000+ sq ft; 9 acres
Stunning 6 bedroom converted barn nestled in Souths Downs, Sussex
Nestled within the South Downs National Park in West Sussex, this stunning 6-bedroom/ 3 living room/ 2 full kitchen, 5,000+ sq ft converted barn provides an idyllic countryside retreat. The three connected barn living areas exude a mix of character and luxury, with beautiful oak beamed vaulted ceilings and exposed brick throughout. Beyond its abundance of quirky bedrooms, the Barns have two fully equipped kitchens and eating areas, a pub-setting bar stool seating area, three separate spacious living and entertainment areas, a games room, five beautifully presented bathrooms and an outdoor hot tub. Totalling around nine acres of land, The Barns’ grounds offer a variety of outdoor seating areas within two distinct garden areas, including a beautifully landscaped floodlit Tuscan-style walled garden and separate outdoor lounge area with a hot tub overlooking the woodland and paddock. The layout of the three Barns is in an L-shape around the walled garden. The Big Barn and Snug Barn are connected by a beautiful archway door with steps. The layout makes an ideal set-up for larger families or groups of friends staying together, providing a balance of shared and private space. Guests can choose to create more privacy between the Barns, all of which can be accessed through their own internal entrances. The Annex Barn is connected via an overhead covered outdoor archway a few steps away from the Snug Barn. While hidden away in the countryside, The Barns is conveniently located just a mile outside of the village of Storrington, which offers a range of convenient amenities including a variety of pubs and eateries, bakers, butchers, and a local Waitrose that offers a delivery service. The rural location is a hiker’s delight with numerous walking destinations close to the South Downs Way, as well as being close to some of Sussex’s prettiest beaches and a number of historic sites. Horse riding, cycling, sailing options are available close by. To note: we are not able to accommodate events or weddings. Amberley is approximately 3 miles away; Horsham 16 miles; London Victoria/ London Bridge approx. 50 mins by train; Brighton 19 miles; Gatwick airport 57 miles. Excellent Wi-Fi throughout.

Wonderful: grand spacious buildings and a lovely private garden with the feel of a Roman villa, and then a terrace facing west down a valley that could have been Tuscany. A lovely place to stay.
We had a wonderful stay at Kithurst Barns. The property is beautiful and just a fantastic space for a group to get together - plenty of room if you need your own space and a brilliant large area to socialise in. We just loved it!
we enjoyed a lovely stay at a fabulous location.
Plenty of room for family and friends to get together for the weekend. Hosts were great with communication.
I would highly recommend this property. It was an extremely enjoyable stay. It's really good for a group of friends or a large family. Thank you so much
Beautiful place in a lovely location, fantastic and helpful communication with Vicky had an amazing weekend and so pleased we booked here. Thank you so much for everything!
Property excellent and amazingly well equipped, with enough room for all family members to have their own space.
The cosy rugs/blankets were a huge success!
Accomodation barn for our daughters wedding at nearby Cissbury Barns
Kitshurst Barns are absolutely stunning.
We were a party of 11 adults and 1 child staying for 3 nights.
The propery is breathtaking both inside and out.It is equipeed to a very high standard with beautiful furnishings in all rooms.The main large barn is FANTASTIC !!
From the moment you arrive and step into the courtyard the ambiance of the barns wraps itself around you. The barns are very well equipped and we loved the different seating areas both inside and outside so all age groups had their own space- with plenty of room in big barn to all get together when we wanted to. Vicky communicated speedily when we had questions both before and during our stay. An amazing place.
Booking this property for our family Christmas was truely magical. The property and owners couldn’t have done more to make us feel welcome. The house has everything you could ask for… very well equipped kitchen/s, enormous dining table which made Christmas Day special, gorgeous grounds, plenty of games to keep the kids happy…
We are struggling to find any faults at all.
Would love to return at some point…thank you again x x
Everything about our experience of the barns was exceptional. From the pre-arrival communication to the moment we checked out, we couldn’t have felt happier or been looked after better. The photos don’t do it justice, it truly took our breath away. Worth every penny.
I didn't think it would be possible but the property is even more impressive than the photos show. We were a group of 11 friends staying for a long weekend. It's the most well-equipped property I've ever stayed at - there are two kitchens, making meal times for a large group really easy to manage, two living rooms, and of course lots of outside space. Everything felt so clean and new, and Vicky was great with communication from check-in until check-out. We'll definitely be back for another stay!
Spent an amazing 2 weeks at this property and it was hard to leave! The property is beautiful, both inside and out, and is set in a quiet, idyllic location, with views of the Downs. It is very spacious with high-end finishes throughout and extremely well equipped - everything has been thought of, to provide the perfect stay for guests. We enjoyed many al fresco meals in the beautifully landscaped courtyard garden. From the initial booking, communications with Vicky and Emma were excellent. I would highly recommend this property; it far exceeded my expectations. Hoping to return on our future trips to the U.K.
I have to say a massive thank you to Emma & Vicky for the use of this beautiful home.
I have to say that the place is amazing. It is so well thought out with the layout and the furniture. Absolutely perfect for our family get together to surprise our mother for her 87th Birthday.
9 people and we all fitted in perfectly.
We could not fault a thing. Perfect to keep all members of the family entertained, from 14 up to 87 years old.
A perfect surprise weekend for the birthday girl and she was blown away by it all and the rest of the family absolutely loved it too.
It was truely a memorable weekend had by all in the beautiful surroundings of your home.
So, again, thank you and very much appreciated.
Absolutely stunning inside and out! Great hosts .. Well equipped, comfortable and catered for all our various family gatherings during our 5 day stay and extended wedding celebrations - we had a hard time leaving .. and hope to return again very soon!
The house was better than described, and we would have no issues in recommending the accommodation to friends and family and will definitely be returning for another stay. The hosts were great and were always on hand for any questions we may have.
We were spending a Bank Holiday weekend with all our children and their partners to celebrate a big birthday. There was masses of space for all 11 of us and so much to do. The kitchen was great for cooking for a crowd. We couldn't find fault with anything.
These barns are really special, we stayed over our wedding weekend with our families and it was fantastic. There is everything you need and the gardens in particular are beautiful - everyone of us who stayed said we wished we owned it! The hosts Vicky and Emma were very responsive and helpful even giving us an early check in and late check out. We can’t wait to come back!
This place looks better in person than the pics (normally its the other way around). Very spacous and whole family enjoy staying in the modern barn which is well equiped.
Thank you
It’s a beautiful property. Everything has been thought of and we were well looked after by the owner and manager.
We booked the chef, Elia, who is listed in the property information, and she was wonderful. Delicious food and delightful personality.
Perfect Pamper were also exceptional.
Very well equipped kitchen(s), and lot of games and activities to do.
Highly recommended!
The house is beautiful. We were 3 families for a long weekend and it couldnt have been more perfect. Plenty of space inside and out for the kids and adults. A picture perfect walled garden and beautifully decorated throughout. Plenty of bedrooms. Great communication! We couldnt fault anything and would love to go back one day...
This property is beautiful!! The pictures do not do it justice- we were blown away! We had family and friends from the UK come as we came in from America. It was great for all ages! The game room was a serious hit!! They have thought of every detail in this property- it is luxury! Beds, linens, kitchens all top notch!
