Things to do in West Sussex

Spend a day exploring Chichester. If you’re staying in our Chichester Central Hotel, it’s a five-minute walk to the cathedral, so start there. Founded in 1075, it’s an exquisite example of Norman and Gothic architecture. From here, make your way to Chichester Harbour. Rent a bike and ride along the Salterns Way cycle route to see the best scenery. If you’re more for a relaxing day at the beach, head to Littlehampton. The shingle and sand shores here are serene.
