We stayed at the Stables at Beauworth which is a great jumping off point. The Diary which is located right next door is ideal as well. I highly recommend both. The Flower Pots and Millbury's Pub's have rooms and both are in South Downs and you can access trails from both! There was also an Airbnb in South Preshaw and Meon which are also wonderful.
