    Bell Lodge is a lovely spacious property, ideally suited for a large group of family/friends. The downstairs area (kitchen/dining room) was ideal for our group. Whilst we were a group of adults the property is very well suited to adults & children...

Awarded an AA 'Five Star Gold' rating in November 2021 Bell Lodge is a newly converted property nestled in the village of Birdham next to the popular East and West Wittering. It is the ideal for large family gatherings or events. The designer kitchen with breakfast bar and TV seating area leads onto a 14 seater dining room. The cinema room with its 50inch screen is ideal for screen time chilling. Luxury 6/7 bedrooms (arranged as twins/ kingsize to suit) offer high end hotel standard beds, the downstairs designed for full disabled/wheelchair access wth en suite wheel in wet room. This room has its own entrance. All bed linen and towels are sourced and laundered through a hotel laundry company to ensure the highest quality. Our large but cosy 'blue room' with wood burning stove offers space for all to gather and sit. There is extensive out side space and grounds with the use of a large field to the left. A trampoline and outdoor table tennis table ensure all year round activities in a secured area By request (plus cost) and we can offer personnel trainers/ wellness packages with our partners plus on site beauty and massage therapy. We can also offer extra Chef and Housekeeping.
My husband and I live locally and will be on hand for any guest needs. We have lovingly developed Bell Lodge to the highest standards to ensure you and your guests have a superb stay. Please contact us directly at any time so we can ensure we cater for all your holiday needs.
Nearby beaches and villages of West Wittering, ( 7min drive) East Wittering (6min drive )and Bracklesham (4 min drive) - superb family safe bucket and spade holiday beaches.
