SITUATION:
Owls Barn is situated between the villages of Plaistow and Kirdford. Both have parish churches and village stores and Plaistow has a well regarded Primary School whilst Kirdford has 2 pubs. The property is close to open farmland and the area abounds with many miles of footpaths and bridleways. More comprehensive facilities can be found at Billingshurst which has two supermarkets, a post office, several independent shops and a leisure centre. The attractive old market town of Petworth (7 miles) is probably best known for the National Trust owned Petworth House with its beautiful 750 acre parkland in the heart of the South Downs National Park. It also boasts a regular farmers market, first class deli and shops catering for most everyday needs. State schools in the area include Plaistow primary school and the Weald secondary school at Billingshurst. Private schools include Pennthorpe at Rudgwick, Seaford College, and Dorset House. Sporting activities include golf at Cowdray Park and horse and motor racing at Goodwood. Communications with London are surprisingly easy with mainline stations at Haslemere (approx. 9 miles, Waterloo 60 minutes) and Billingshurst ( approx. 8 miles, Victoria 70 minutes ). The A3 (M) is within a 12 mile drive.
