Escape to Verdant Rise, a luxury five-bedroom home in Albourne, West Sussex—just nine miles from Brighton. Perfect for wellness retreats, family gatherings, and friends reconnecting, this stylish countryside haven offers the perfect blend of space, comfort, and tranquility to unwind, move, and recharge
Whether you’re gathering family from near and far, hosting a restorative wellness retreat, or simply carving out time with friends, Verdant Rise has been designed with one purpose in mind: to help you pause, breathe deeply, and create memories you’ll treasure long after your stay.
Picture mornings that begin with yoga on the lawn and coffee brewed fresh from the bean-to-cup machine. Afternoons filled with walks, laughter, and a long soak in the hot tub. Evenings where you gather around the fire or under starlit skies with a shared meal cooked in the outdoor kitchen. Whether you’re here to reconnect with nature, recharge your spirit, or celebrate with loved ones, Verdant Rise is more than just a place to stay — it’s a setting for moments that matter.
Step inside to discover a light-filled open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space at the heart of the home. Here, floor-to-ceiling bi-fold doors open onto the garden, blending indoor and outdoor living. Snuggle up by the log burner with a glass of wine after a countryside walk, share long dinners around the dining table, or throw open the doors on a sunny day to let fresh country air fill the space.
The kitchen is a chef’s dream, with a double oven, induction hob, bean-to-cup coffee machine, dishwasher, and even a wine cellar to keep your favourite bottles perfectly chilled. Whether you’re cooking up a Sunday roast, trying your hand at local produce from nearby farm shops, or hiring in a private chef, this space makes entertaining effortless.
Verdant Rise sleeps up to ten guests across five beautifully appointed bedrooms, with additional flexibility for two more guests (twelve in total) on comfortable sofa beds. Three of the bedrooms feature zip-and-link beds, meaning they can be set up as king beds or twins to suit your group’s needs.
The master suite is a retreat of its own: a super king bed, walk-in wardrobe, spa-style en suite, and even a cozy office nook if you need to catch up on work during your stay. A sofa bed here offers additional sleeping space, making it ideal for families with little ones. Each bedroom is thoughtfully designed to ensure a restful night’s sleep, with soft linens, calming colours, and quiet surroundings.

We know holidays are better with your four-legged friends. Well-behaved dogs are warmly welcomed (+£60/Dog/Stay). To keep the house comfortable for all, we ask that dogs remain downstairs, off the furniture, and are not left alone for extended periods. With endless walks on your doorstep, they’ll love it here as much as you do!
When it comes to fun and relaxation, you’ll be spoiled for choice. Sink into the hot tub under open skies, or gather in the games and cinema room for movie nights, Xbox tournaments, or streaming your favourite playlists on the Bose speaker. The kitchen and gas BBQ invite alfresco dining, while the spacious lawn is perfect for yoga sessions, group games, or simply enjoying the sunset with a glass of wine in hand.
While you may be tempted to spend every moment at the house, the local area offers endless opportunities for adventure. Wander straight from the doorstep onto peaceful walking and cycling routes, or venture into the South Downs National Park for breathtaking landscapes.
Foodies and wine lovers will be delighted to find some of Sussex’s most celebrated vineyards just minutes away. Farm shops brim with fresh local produce, while luxury spas and golf courses are within easy reach. For a change of pace, the cultural buzz of Brighton’s seafront is just a 20-minute drive away, and London is under an hour by train.
Every aspect of Verdant Rise has been designed with guest comfort in mind. The home is fully air-conditioned, features a utility room with washer and dryer, and offers secure bike storage for those keen to explore the countryside on two wheels. There’s parking for four or more cars, as well as an EV charger (available to pre-book).
