Dating back to the 18th century, this Grade II listed townhouse has been brought up to the minute, guaranteeing a peaceful stay for all its guests. Lively breakfasts take place in the bright kitchen – throw open the bifold doors as you tuck into a full English before finishing the last of your cuppa on the patio. Should the sky become overcast, make a beeline for the living room and curl up on the soft sofa. If you’d like to take the relaxation up a notch, treat yourself to a pamper session in the private sauna. When you’re ready to get to know your surroundings, the heart of Chichester is less than a five-minute walk away. Visit the Gothic-style cathedral, stroll around Bishop’s Palace Garden and discover Roman bathhouse remains at the Novium Museum. Or why not swap the city for the seaside? Bognor Regis is reached in less than twenty minutes by car.
