The village of Stedham has an old historic center, with a small village green with surrounding charming cottages. There is a beautiful large grassy space at the edge of the village and adjacent to the cottage. Once used as polo pitches, a footpath crosses this peaceful spot overlooking the South Downs. Stedham common has larger regions to roam over open heathland over the A272.
Five minutes drive away is Midhurst, an ancient Town with central portions of Tudor origin. The town has a number of cafes and small restaurants as well as a mini supermarket and garage, Cowdray park, castle ruins and golf course.
