Located in the South Downs National Park, the Grade II* listed Arts and Crafts hospital was designed by architects Percy Adams and Charles Holden under the patronage of King Edward VII and was opened in 1906. Designed to encourage health with fresh air and light, the new dwellings benefit from the original large window openings and external terraces, many with south facing views over the downs, and communal gardens designed by the horticulturist Gertrude Jekyll. Internally, historic features including timber panelling, carraware tiles, teak staircases and parquet floors have been restored as features within communal and private areas.
