We booked this accommodation to go to the Goodwood Festival of Speed. It was a great choice as it was close to the venue and very quiet. The property itself is lovely, well presented and The little extras like wine, lollies and chocolate were really appreciated.

Outstanding property fully equipped and with lots of little goodies. It was our second stay at the property, and we’d come back any time. Just a hint: the chairs at the dining room need some review. This being said: Bosham is outstanding, and the Millstream Cottage is as well.

Really enjoyed our stay…
Perfect for our visit. We particularly enjoyed sitting and having our coffee in the courtyard and exploring Bosham which is a lovely little village. The check in process was very easy. No parking at the property and the day we arrived it was busy in the car park and no street parking available. We were able to leave our car at our friends house in Chidham and taxi about and then move the car to the car park early morning before everyone got there.

Chocolate box village and well presented cottage
Located in the pretty little village of Bosham (pronounced Boxem), we stayed at the lovely Millstream Cottage which exceed all of our expectations. Paula the host has thought of everything that you could possibly need on your stay and more; from a large selection of world teas, coffee machine with capsules, popcorn maker, board games, picnic hamper, great welcome pack, kitchen amenities, bubble bath, pens and writing paper, little instructions manuals for all key equipment..... the list goes on. This is probably the most well thought out and equipped property that we have stayed at and we stay at a lot of places. I'd highly recommend staying in this lovely cottage and beautiful village especially if you'd like to get a vibe of the Cameron Diaz movie 'The Holiday'.
