Getting there

If you exit the A27 sign posted Aldingbourne centre (there is a crossing at dual carriageway if travelling from East to West) make the main turning but then turn immediately left into Blackmill Lane, you will pass Blackmill Spinney on the left. About 200 meters afterwards there is an unmarked drive on the left. This is the start of our driveway through our grounds to the property. If you see a big field on the left, you've missed it.
