Tournerbury Woods Cottage, a stunning rural self catering holiday venue beside the sea on
Hayling Island on the Hampshire West Sussex border in the South Coast of England


Tournerbury - Escape to the woods on the water

Welcome to Woods Cottage and the Tournerbury Woods micro estate. On this web site you will find details of one of the South Coast's most unique self catering holiday cottages, a stunning four bedroom residence set in it's own private 50 acre wooded grounds with direct water access to Chichester Harbour and the Solent.

Woods Cottage is situated in the Chichester Harbour Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the Hampshire / West Sussex county border, just 70 miles from central London and benefitting from the new £350 million A3 tunnel. The cottage has recently undergone complete refurbishment and is available for rental all year round for short and long breaks.

Our unique position is ideal for exploring the local area, with plenty to do and see, from the Roman market town of Chichester and it's iconic 'Festival Theatre' that attracts leading names of screen and stage, the nearby South Downs National Park and the Goodwood Estate's Festival of Speed, horse racing and golf to the historic Naval dockyards of Portsmouth with ships like Nelson's HMS Victory and The Mary Rose. Day trips to the Isle of Wight are easily possible, whether you get there at high speed by chartering our power boat 'Monkey Puzzle' or use the more conventional (and sedate) ferry services from Portsmouth.

On this site we provide background information on the surrounding area, how to get the best out of your stay, the South Coast and where to find some of the hidden gems. You will find travel information, a current events calendar, and other regularly updated news.

You will also find booking forms, pricing, useful links to other sites, and our contact details for any further questions or information that you might need. Woods Cottage and the Tournerbury Woods micro estate are a tiny slice of Swallows and Amazons England - Welcome to our world.........come and stay, come and play.
