About

Welcome to The Walled Garden, a distinguished country residence nestled at the foot of the South Downs. Once part of the historic Danny Estate, this elegant retreat combines timeless English charm with contemporary comfort. Just 9 miles from Brighton and moments from Hassocks, it's the perfect countryside escape for families, friends, and anyone seeking peace, beauty, and a touch of grandeur. With sweeping views across the Downs and lush gardens, The Walled Garden offers a truly memorable stay.

Dating back centuries yet lovingly maintained, this grand home exudes warmth and character at every turn. Generous proportions, original fireplaces, and serene countryside vistas set the tone for rest and reconnection.
KITCHEN / DINING AREA
The heart of the home, the kitchen overlooks the walled garden and is fully equipped with modern conveniences — including an induction hob, oven, dishwasher, microwave, kettle, toaster, and ample cookware and tableware. Whether you're preparing a simple breakfast or a celebratory feast with local produce, everything you need is close to hand.
Gather in the spacious Dining Rooms, where a central log burner adds a glow to every mealtime. With French doors leading onto the garden, this is a space made for long, laughter-filled evenings and leisurely lunches that roll into golden afternoons.

The house features five beautifully appointed reception rooms, each with its own character and charm:
A bright Drawing Room with bay windows framing stunning countryside views — perfect for unwinding by the fire or enjoying conversation with friends.

A cosy Snug with vaulted ceilings, huge table and French doors opening onto a sunny patio — ideal for reading or morning coffee.

Additional rooms for quiet reflection, home working, or simply spreading out and making the home your own.

With multiple spaces to gather or retreat, The Walled Garden offers an effortless blend of comfort, privacy, and conviviality.
