About The Morris Apartment

The Morris Apartment is a small, airy holiday home located on the second floor of Standen House, a beautiful property designed by Philip Webb, a close friend of William Morris. The house has been decorated with Morris & Co. textiles and wallpaper.
 
Experience how it felt to live in an Arts and Crafts house. A philosophy that extended to the property’s hillside garden, designed to look like a natural part of the landscape. After all the visitors have left, explore the gardens at Standen at your leisure. 

Nearby, the Tudor village of Chiddingstone is a fascinating place to spend the afternoon. With its marvellous cafes, pretty pubs and, of course, the famous chiding stone, there’s lots to see and do. The South Downs National Park, Wakehurst Botanical Gardens and Nymans are all within an hours’ drive from the house too.
