The site offers flexible and versatile accommodation across both ground and first floors, with unit sizes ranging from approximately 913 sq ft to 2,194 sq ft.

The business park is set within a unique and picturesque environment, with open views over the South Downs National Park, and is surrounded by fields and woodland. A significant portion of the site itself includes grassed and wooded areas, creating an unusually green and attractive setting rarely found in similar developments.
