Fantastic setting, beautiful cottage and every single detail has been thought about. We loved everything. The views across the wetlands and the birds at the cottage were outstanding.

We had a wonderful stay at The Barn in early December 2020. Such a good find, on the edge of Pulborough Brooks RSPB reserve, the views are stunning. The Barn itself is lovely, cosy and well furnished with lots of gorgeous little touches (the owner put Christmas decorations up for us) and there was a pretty much fully stocked store cupboard so you don't need to worry about taking condiments, as well as a lovely welcome pack of local produce including bread, bacon and eggs. The owner was on hand to answer any questions we had and was lovely and friendly while still leaving us to our own devices! We couldn't recommend The Barn highly enough and will definitely return.

Really couldn't have been happier with our stay at The Barn at Banks Cottage. It was exactly what we were hoping it would be with cracking views from the decking and only a short walk to RSPB Pulborough Brooks. On top of this the accommodation itself surpassed our expectations and the owner was a perfect host.

I rarely leave reviews but there was no way I couldn't when it came to our wonderful stay at The Barn at Banks Cottage.Paul, Deirdre & their woofs Mollie and Monty made our trip so memorable, when we arrived Paul greeted us and welcomed us into our home for the four nights ahead. Paul & Deidre had left fresh bread, organic eggs, bacon and a lovely bottle of plonk. They also learned on arrival it was my Mother in Laws birthday the next day and presented her with some beautiful gifts, these things are so often over looked by hosts but they make such an impact and are highly appreciated.The cottage itself is beautiful and when I say spotless I truly mean spotless. We were all a little apprehensive staying somewhere during these uncertain times but we had no reason to be! The Cottage has all the mod cons & although there are no pictures of the bathroom online it is truly lovely. We dropped on with the weather, sometimes hitting 33 degrees and what a beautiful place to be. The cottage is so peaceful and has the most breathtaking views across the RSPB nature reserve - Paul & Deirdre's Highland Cattle are so beautiful and can be admired through the banoculars they provide throughout the property. I woke up especially early on the second morning and watched as the mist rose over the reserve and turned a beautiful pinky orange. I recommend you do not miss the sunsets in the evening, sitting with a cold drink and watching the sun disappear have made unforgettable memories.If I could rate the hosts and this beautiful cottage more than 5 stars I would, my partner and I are hoping to return in the winter to see how the landscape has changed and have another relaxing, brain detox & to be at one with nature again.Thank you Paul & Deirdre (Mollie & Monty too)

Superb in every detail. Our host, Paul, could not have made us feel more welcome, ensuring everything was catered for, with lovely touches like champagne and fresh flowers.

Amazing accommodation with fabulous views. It is such a relaxing and peaceful place to stay with added bonus of Neal?s Yard Toiletries provided. We loved watching the birds come and go throughout the day. Paul & Deirdre are extremely friendly, will definitely be going back.

I took my parents for a weekend break for my Dadâ??s birthday. I wish there were more stars to give, as Paul and his lovely wife Deirdre are so accommodating and such great fun! The scenery is simply beautiful and wonderful walks are just at the back door to fill your lungs with fresh air! The beds are so comfy and the cottage itself is fully equipped with everything you need. (I love the fireplace!) The cleanliness is beyond great! Thank you so much guys! We cannot wait to come back and visit! The Leeâ??s and the Aussie! X

Probably one of the greatest country break you can think of!
