Welcome to Petworth


Remember that wedding we went to in Kirdford? Well we actually stayed in a nearby village called Petworth. Hub and I explored this quaint little place the day after the wedding and I've got to say, it was like being lost in Jane Austen. 

We stayed at the Angel Inn and it was so cute! They had a great outdoor courtyard where we ate everyday...


And interiors that were so old! I mean I heart these narrow little hallways...


The night before the wedding we had dinner with the groom at the Inn and the food was pretty tasty. Hearty English classics and country pub staples. They also offered us a generous complimentary breakfast menu and hands down the best porridge we've ever had...



Petworth is much bigger than Kirdford. They had sweet little shops and cafes everywhere and I just loved the decorative touches on homes...




After breakfast we headed to Petworth House, which was a manor house in the village open to the public. I felt like Lizzy wondering through Mr. Darcy's house. Swoon!



we checked out their art collection...


and explored the different rooms...





and strolled through the grounds...




How awesome would it be to get married here? If only English weather was like this every day or 360 days of the year. If you want a weekend in the country, check out Petworth and it's only an hour and half outside London. Ace.
