Our Location

We're located on the South Coast of England in beautiful West Sussex, settled beneath the spectacular and vast South Downs National Park in the lovely village of Chidham, a rural community nestled in the beautiful Chichester Harbour National Landscape with its peninsula protruding into Chichester Harbour.

It’s the perfect location to explore all that the local area has to offer, from pretty towns and harbour villages to spectacular natural coastline, beaches and the historic cities of Chichester and Portsmouth.

On our doorstep is all the natural beauty of Chichester Harbour and, whether you want to explore it on land or water there's plenty to see and do. The South Downs National Park is only a few miles to the North with its wealth of wildlife, walks, culture and heritage.

Our nearest pub is just a short walk away, as is the harbour edge of Bosham Channel where you can join the shoreline path and walk around Chidham peninsula enjoying spectacular views across the Bosham and Thorney channels.

Nearby is the beautiful harbour village of Bosham with its historic church, sailing club, craft shops and quaint quayside. To the West is the pretty little harbour town of Emsworth with its local shops, cafés and pubs leading down to the quayside and sailing club. On the way to Emsworth you’ll pass through the village of Southbourne with its popular farm shop, perfect for buying provisions and sampling some locally sourced ingredients.

The Roman Villa in Fishbourne is just a short drive away and, beyond that the Cathedral City of Chichester where you’ll find of course the Festival Theatre, cafés, restaurants and plenty of shopping. For cultural explorers there is also the famous cathedral, Pallant House Art Gallery and The Novium museum built over the ruins of a Roman bathhouse.

 

You’ll find lovely beaches and seaside attractions in Wittering and Bracklesham, a scenic drive away, and on Hayling Island a short distance to the West. Further afield are historic Portsmouth and Southsea with all their local attractions and, to the East is the vibrant seaside town of Brighton.

Goodwood Estate, Racecourse and Motor Circuit are also within easy reach by car too. Goodwood aerodrome is home to the vintage Spitfires that you may see flying over the harbour in the summer and their Aerodrome Café is a great spot to watch comings and goings on the airstrip.

There really is something for everyone within easy reach so you can make the most of your stay and experience as much of the fabulous local area as you can.
