KeepersA house for two couples, with a bath in every bedroom

The house

Keepers is an old farm building with oak beams, converted to a five-star standard. The living space is open plan around a wood-burning stove, with oak French doors onto the courtyard. Underfloor heating runs through the whole house, so it is warm underfoot in January.

There are two bedrooms, one on the ground floor and one upstairs. Each has a super-king bed with Egyptian cotton linen and its own bathroom with a bath and a separate walk-in shower. Nobody has to share, which is why two couples travelling together tend to choose it.

The kitchen has a dishwasher, oven, microwave, fridge and coffee maker, and there is a washing machine and tumble dryer. One guest wrote that it was better equipped than his kitchen at home.

Outside

The courtyard is private to Keepers, with a slate table that seats six, a barbecue and off-road parking. A footpath leaves from the farm, and the village pub, the Victoria Inn, is a very short walk.

The heated outdoor pool is shared with the other two houses and nobody else. It is open from mid-June to early September, Monday to Saturday.

Who it suits

Two couples. A couple who want space and a bath each. Friends coming for Goodwood. In winter it is the warmest and most comfortable of the three, and the one we would choose for a couples’ break in February.

Keepers does not take dogs. If you are bringing one, Barley Cottage does. If you need more beds, take a second house: the three together sleep 12, and they are a few steps apart. See the whole farm.

Prices and stays

A week in Keepers is from £1,204. Summer weeks run Friday to Friday. Outside the school holidays we take shorter stays, and there is a three-night minimum over Goodwood events, Easter, half-terms and Christmas. A 30% deposit holds the booking.
