The village lies between Portsmouth and the cathedral city of Chichester, is well served by road and rail links, and houses a vibrant community, with a good range of shops, restaurants and pubs, together with two sailing clubs. The cathedral city of Chichester lies at the heart of the county of West Sussex. The city lies along the coast in one of the prime sectors of the Home Counties, within easy reach of the ever- popular coastal destinations of Bosham and Itchenor. These all have excellent beaches. The whole area is renowned as a sailors’ paradise with myriads of sailing clubs and excellent sailing in The Solent from nearby Chichester marina. Chichester is also a wonderful centre for shopping and features all of the usual high street multiples, supermarkets and department stores as well as an extensive selection of boutique shops. The city is also well catered for the arts, with the Festival Theatre particularly well regarded, with its close links to the West End; hosting a number of shows both before and after their appearance in London’s West End. The city sits at the foot of the South Downs National Park, with its beautiful rolling hills providing wonderful recreational facilities, including miles of walks and rides along the famous South Downs Way. Local attractions include Stansted House & Park, Fishbourne Roman Place, Staunton Country Park and Cobnor Activities Centre. Sporting facilities in the area are excellent with, in addition to sailing off the coast, golf at West Sussex and Cowdray, horse racing at Goodwood and Fontwell, and of course with the Goodwood Estate close by, the area is well served for the world- renowned motorsports events hosted by the estate. Notable schools in the area include the Prebendal School in Chichester, Oakwood prep school just west of Chichester, Portsmouth Grammar School in Portsmouth, Dorset House school at Bury and Westbourne House school just east of Chichester. Further to this are Churcher’s and Bedales at Petersfield.
