Cromwell House Near Petworth, Sussex

Cromwell House was a really fabulous venue for our celebration, and the weather was surprisingly kind to us on the Saturday, which was the actual anniversary, and allowed us to enjoy the facilities to the full.

Andrew - Newbury, September 2024

It's a great property, and the kitchen is immaculately stocked. We were very happy

Guy - London, August 2024

We all had a lovely time, thank you. The house was beautiful and very well equipped. We really enjoyed the pool, hot tub, tennis court and croquet lawn. The outdoor seating area was also great. We were lucky with the weather so sat outside quite a bit. Bedrooms were all beautiful.

Lizzie - Cambridge, August 2024

Our 3rd visit to Cromwell House and it did not disappoint. It lived up to all the high standards/expectations we've come to expect. We had a brilliant time and the grandchildren spent most of it in the pool. Alongside a few games of croquet (playing to our own rules) as well as improving tennis skills. (Still some way to go). We are certainly thinking of a return visit to the house.

Guy - Lincoln, August 2024

We have a lovely time and were very lucky with the weather.

Jenny - London, August 2024

Oh my days....the house was absolutely stunning, it surpassed all our expectations, and our expectations were v high. Every detail from the greeting by Vanessa (she even put our shopping away), the instruction manual, every facility was top notch. The tennis court was better than Wimbledon, the croquet lawn caused some very competitive games (not sure the rules were followed), the outdoor spaces were incredible. We turned the pool area into a beach club Sunday, and the annexe tv room into stadium seating for the football. The owners have done an amazing job with the house, the decor, the amenities everything was perfect. There isn't one criticism, the pool and hot tub were constantly in use and many games of tennis were played.

Martin - Essex, July 2024

What a beautiful, well appointed property Cromwell House is. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Emma - Northamptonshire, July 2024

We had an absolutely fantastic weekend at the house - it was out of this world, thank you to all the Wow House team for their help. The sun shone for us all weekend and everyone agreed it was the best place we've rented. The welcome hamper was a lovely touch too. Our thanks again.

Corinne - Jersey, May 2024

We had a great 2nd visit to Cromwell House, familiarity made it even better.

Guy - Lincolnshire, August 2023

Thank you! We have had a truly special week in this incredible house. You have thought of everything to make sure it is 5 star. Comfy beds, beautiful kitchen, stunning garden, clean and well kept pool and luxurious loungers. We can't fault it. Thank you!

Menendez and Stapely Family - London, August 2023

We returned yesterday from our stay at Cromwell House and I wanted to drop you a line to say how absolutely fabulous every part of our week was. From the greeting by lovely Vanessa and delightful welcome pack to the excellent cleaning by Isabela. The house exceeded everyone's expectations and was just the perfect place to shelter from the English rain and also to enjoy the beautiful sunshine by the pool or playing tennis and croquet. We loved the undercover snug area outside in the evenings. My parents adored the house and its history and kept marvelling at how well equipped it was. You've really thought of everything. My mother, in particular, fell in love with the kitchen! We had an amazing chef (ChefGary) cook dinners for us but enjoyed two pub lunches locally plus a pint at the local. We feel very lucky to have experienced such a unique and special house. Thank you again for the show around back in April.

Sarah - London, August 2023

We had a fabulous time, thank you to the owner and your great team.

Nikki - Kent, May 2023

We certainly did enjoy our stay at the house, indeed I would go so far as to say it exceeded our expectations. In terms of bedrooms/bathrooms it perfectly met our requirements and the facilities such as the pool and tennis court were well used as we were very lucky with the weather. Thanks for handling our booking efficiently.

Charles - Berkshire, May 2023

As soon as we stepped through the gate, we realised this was in all senses of the word, a 'Wow' house. So exquisitely and lovingly restored and extended, with every room a welcome and different delight. We were lucky to have beautiful weather to enjoy all the stunning grounds have to offer. The grandkids loved the pool (as did all the swimmers), and everyone played endless games of croquet and tennis on the beautiful grass court. We were here to celebrate my sister's 70th birthday and Cromwell House provided the perfect setting - the walls rang with laughter all our stay. A true piece of paradise in a peaceful rural setting. What a gem!

Hilary and Paul - Berkshire, May 2023

We had an absolutely wonderful time and we'll be looking to book again soon.

Malcolm - London, October 2022

We were delighted with all the facilities on offer, and particularly the helpful way in which our personal requests for oxygen, ramps, anti allergy bedding were all accommodated easily. Vanessa really was fantastic in dealing with our requests in the previous week. The actual house was a pleasure to live in. Nothing had been overlooked regarding equipment and facilities. In fact when a juicer did not work early on in the week, Vanessa immediately had it replaced the following morning. Excellent service. And attention to detail. The pool being heated to the level it was made swimming a joy for all, and the sauna was also a favourite and the hot tub. Limitless towels were also appreciated. So we would give it 10 out of 10 all round. And look forward to returning at some point. Soon hopefully! A really delightful house to live in.

Sue, August 2022

The facilities in the house and garden are truly superb. The grandchildren especially adored the giant panda seat (and now want one themselves). The pool was fantastic, especially as the weather was so hot.

David, August 2022

I can confirm that we had an absolutely fantastic time at Cromwell House - it exceeded our expectations and has set the bar very high indeed for our future family gatherings. The superb house and annexe were both luxurious and pleasantly quirky. The information left in the house made us feel at home and didn't make us feel that the house was so precious that we couldn't relax in it. Vanessa, who greeted us, made us feel right at home. It seemed nothing was too much trouble. We had lovely weather and the pool and tennis court were put to good use. I genuinely have no adverse feedback to give you at all.

Morag, August 2022

We had a fantastic week. The house really is perfect for us. It's so relaxing and the pool is heaven! We will return yet again.

Catherine, June 2022

The house was even better than the photos and write up. So much to do and a beautiful part of the country. The organisation and support from WOW was equally impressive.

Richard, June 2022

We all had an absolutely amazing time. The house was incredible. We are a close group of friends who have been having weekends away for about 20 years, this was the best house we have stayed in! The pool, hot tub, sauna and spa area were all stunning! The weather helped but even on a cloudy day, the covered outside areas are perfect and very relaxing. Pristine gardens and we made use of the organic veg patch and picked some produce as they had indicated. The house is clearly a much loved, family home; beautiful artwork and furniture, coupled with its history makes it very unique. And finally a special mention to Vanessa, the House Manager, she was very helpful and accommodating.

Becky, May 2022

Definitely had the wow factor, 5 stars!

Elaine, May 2022

Beautiful location, peaceful and tranquil with a high standard of decor.

Sue, May 2022

Fabulous, so many personal touches and very well equipped. Everything we could need, and more.

Fleur, May 2022

We enjoyed Cromwell house very much, thanks. We were very lucky with the weather, so used the pool, tennis court etc more than we thought we were going to.

Tim, May 2022

The house was fabulous and it really made the surprise birthday really special. Everything you could need was covered and to the highest standard. We were also so lucky with the weather that we were able to sit by the pool on Sunday morning and really enjoy the garden.

Gussie, January 2022

We had an excellent time at Cromwell House. The property was absolutely beautiful and the house manager and recommended chef were incredible as well. We certainly hope to come back again in the future.

Anna, December 2021

Perfect for a family gathering of all ages. Thank you also for your efficiency - it's been a pleasure dealing with the Wow House Company.

Gary, November 2021

Our 2 weeks at 'Cromwell House' were wonderful. The house, garden and surroundings are lovely. The children were in the pool as often as they could be, despite less than perfect weather. The croquet/clock golf lawn was much used, the tennis court lovely but a bit more weather dependent. Anything we thought we might need turned out to be available, though it took us all a while to remember which drawers things were in! The view from the back of the house over that peaceful countryside was beautiful. It was a perfect venue for the family to reunite after the troubles of the past 18 months.

Anna, August 2021

We had a glorious weekend at Cromwell House. There are so many thoughtful details such as Molton Brown products in every bathroom, robes and slippers provided, wonderfully comfortable beds and linens and a kitchen stocked with every dish and appliance required. Lovely welcome from the House Manager with all three fires lit providing a very cosy and warm arrival. Very generous welcome hamper too. Then there are the outdoor features centred around the amazing swimming pool. It was probably about 10 degrees outside every day but we were all in the pool numerous times thanks to the heating and the hot tub and/or sauna to warm up in afterwards. The tennis court is stunning and providing four racquets plus balls was a very nice touch.Highly recommend.

Catherine, May 2021

We had a wonderful stay in this spectacular home. Everything was so well thought of - the welcome basket, wine in the fridge, fires lit on arrival, beauty products, BBQ kit! The garden and pool are stunning, we were fortunate to have beautiful weather and the daily pool maintenance made it feel like a spa hotel! The beds were incredibly comfortable. We felt so relaxed and didn't want to leave. Thank you to the owners, it was a much needed break and a fantastic way to emerge from Lockdown #3
