If you are looking for something a bit different for a special stay this place ticks all the boxes. A very peaceful location. The Old Station and carriages are maintained to a very high standard. The staff were very responsive to any requests. We had a lovely breakfast sitting under sun shades on the platform, as the weather was very warm. The carriages were cool despite it being 36° as shutters could be closed over the windows. Very comfortable bed.

A very different experience, made most enjoyable by the owners and their staff, for whom nothing was too much trouble. Excellent food, delightful surroundings and everything leads to a further visit.

I was struggling for birthday ideas for my partner. I was thinking a short break, not too far away but something a little unusual. I stumbled across The Old Station in Petworth and booked. I have to say the weekend did not disappoint! We stayed in one of the converted Pullman carriages, beautifully restored with all the amenities we needed within our room. The first evening we ate in their on site restaurant in a Pullman Carriage. The food was excellent and the atmosphere just lovely. The breakfast was also very good in beautiful surroundings and the staff very friendly. I would highly recommend.

This was a fabulous find. A beautiful setting, and ideal for for a short break. The staff are extremely helpful and very friendly and the breakfast was great. I'm very much looking forward to seeing how things progress with the newest Pullman which is being converted into a restaurant and would recommend a stay here.

A wonderful and unique hotel

A really superb small hotel. Staying in a railway carriage was a truly unique and wonderful experience. The carriages are well laid out and well equipped. We arrived when it was -5 degrees, so the room was a little cooler than we would have liked, but there were plenty of radiators to add heat. Breakfast was amazing and taken in a stunning old waiting room with a roaring fire. Staff were excellent too!

This has been on my bucket list for some time. We had a wounderful 2 night stay and everything was perfect. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable, larger than alot of hotel rooms. You lay in bed at night and could imagine your travelling on a train. The meal was excellent, Beef Wellington to die for, so good and wonderful surroundings in a 1906 Pullman car exquisitely restored. The staff were brilliant and extremely helpful. Alot of history tied up in this place.

Excellent stay

We stayed in the Pullman King and it was lovely, there was a large bathroom with bath and shower which were spotless. The bed was really comfortable and the whole carriage was spacious and clean. Plenty of tea coffe etc. only recommendation would be a higher table so u could sit and eat without bending over. Breakfast in the restaurant was fresh and tasty with lots of nice touches. Would love to stay here again. Would also recommend Badgers pub down the road a 2 minute walk.

An interesting and quirk place. Loved it.

A really interesting, quirky and special place. We stayed in a Pullman 'room' which was comfortable, warm and cosy. The carriage had been converted brilliantly and retained its historic features. The station building also had been converted/renovated to a high standard and again retained historic references, tastefully done. Breakfast, cooked 'just for you' was excellent and was eaten in the old waiting room which had a lovely ambiance. Highly recommended if you want something different and if you have any interest in steam railways, you'll love it.
