Explore Sussex from Arundel
Picturesque thatch, winding lanes, ancient churches, and wooded valleys are just a taste of what you will find in the peaceful villages surrounding Arundel. If you want to experience life in perhaps a quieter time or history in abundance, you will find this in local villages you didn’t even know existed.
There are abundant public paths, historic buildings that were once occupied by the gentry, farm works, craftsmen and families who lived in the same houses for generations. If only their walls could talk – what tales they would tell! Stop at pubs and cafes for a pint or a cuppa, admire the views, soak up the history and enjoy the unique areas that surround Arundel. You never know what you might discover!
