The café is set in a magnificent, well ventilated space with soaring ceilings – ideal to accommodate social distancing.
This 16th century barn houses an informative and interactive exhibition on the history of Sullington and farming on the Down; the early 20th century lean-to extension has been converted into a charming and stylish, modern café environment.
The main barn and outside area are dog friendly.
We use great quality ingredients, sourced as locally as possible – some food miles can be measured in yards, from the vegetable patch! Everything is home-made so allow for a bit of ‘wonk’ but come and enjoy cafetiere coffee, homemade cakes, light lunches and afternoon tea – this is the perfect pit stop after a bracing walk along the South Downs Way or a gentle dog walk from Storrington or Washington. The cycle racks and fix-it station make it an ideal stop for the intrepid cyclist too.
We’re passionate about regenerating the built heritage and about supporting the local economy, including a great team of local, young people. Please come and see for yourselves! A warm welcome awaits!
Just East of Storrington, come off the busy A283 on to quiet Sullington Lane and keep going until you find the farm and church. Parking is on the roadside opposite the church and feel free to use the Rector’s or Organist’s spaces if there is no service in the church when you visit. Sullington church is always open and is a beautiful, peaceful place to spend a little time.
Level access to this South Downs café and, separately, via a ramp to the exhibition.
