We are a day and boarding prep school like no other in West Sussex.  70 acres of fields, pitches and woods set within the rolling hills of the South Downs National Park and only 15 minutes from the nearest beach, ensure our pupils enjoy the most inspirational of settings, climb trees, build dens and retain the freedom and enjoyment of childhood for as long as possible.

Our nine hole golf course, 25 metre indoor swimming pool, forest school areas and market garden complete with 18 chickens and a wildflower meadow ensure children have fantastic opportunities to learn new skills and enjoy different experiences.

Windlesham House offers the space for a true childhood, excellent communication links and we are only 25 minutes from Gatwick airport and one and half hours from central London.

There is a tangible spirit of excitement, happiness and enthusiasm. It is impossible not to be swept along by the fun and enjoyment coming from the children. Nothing is unusual and the possibilities are endless.

Looking back on your childhood, what memories stand out to you? Hopefully days of exploring nature, playing with friends and learning new skills…

Our beautiful 70 acres of grass and woodland, nestled in the foothills of the South Downs allows children to be children, giving space to learn, discover and play.

Our long held policy of no school uniform (within reason of course!) helps children feel relaxed in their home away from home.

There is plenty of wildlife to spot – including a family of deer, badgers, pheasants and plenty of birds. With over 1000 trees to climb, there’s plenty of scope for a treehouse or den to house adventure seekers.

Windlesham House pupils enjoy a huge range of extra-curricular activities – from clay pigeon shooting to ballet, riding and polo, water polo and sailing to textiles and chess.

There are also opportunities for the children to enjoy camping trips and survival nights ‘in the wild’!
