Arundel Castle

Our story begins in 1067 and continues to the present day. Many of the original features such as the Norman Keep, medieval Gatehouse and Barbican survive.

Between the 1870s and 1890s the house was almost completely rebuilt and the magnificent architecture in Gothic style is considered to be one of the great works of Victorian England.

Learn from our friendly guides about the finely preserved interior with its fascinating furniture, tapestries and rare collection of paintings by renowned artists including Van Dyck, Gainsborough and Canaletto. Stroll through the tranquil grounds where you will discover inspiring gardens.

Get involved in our historical events, learn about life in the past  and cheer on your champion knight.

Whilst you are here, visit Arundel's historic town centre with its museum, galleries, shops and restaurants which are a short walk from the main entrance.

Chichester

Chichester is a Roman cathedral city and the only city in West Sussex. Its historical evidence of Roman settlement can be found all over the city, including some Roman baths, a city wall (which was replaced by a Georgian wall), an amphitheatre which is now a park and the old Roman road State Street linking Chichester with London.

It has a plethora of grade II listed buildings and other points of interest include the Chichester City Cross which is a type of butter market and sits in the centre of North, East, South and West streets. The City Cross was built in 1500 by Bishop Edward Storey as a shelter for people who sold their wares on market day.

BOGNOR REGIS

From its beautiful coastline to the shops, restaurants, historical and seaside attractions, there’s plenty to keep you and the whole family entertained in Bognor Regis.  This is a place to explore, a town full of character and stories from history – revisit 20th century childhoods in the arcades, explore seaside culture at the museum, splash around with seafront water sports or run with your dog along the beach that George V chose for his convalescence in 1929. And with the likes of Chichester, Arundel, Littlehampton and the South Downs close by, there’s more to explore within the local area.

Royal Norfolk Hotel

Situated in a delightfully sunny spot on the seafront with extensive lawns and superb views over the English Channel, the Royal Norfolk Hotel is an exceptional Regency building dating from the 1830’s and has been visited by the Emperor Napoleon III of France and various descendants of Queen Victoria. The location of Bognor Regis makes it unique; not only has it been officially named the sunniest town in Britain, it is very close to the South Downs National Park, with its beautiful Sussex countryside castles and country houses all just a short distance away. The Royal Norfolk provides an ideal base to visit the historic navel port and dockyard of Portsmouth, or visit the historic city of Chichester or Arundel.
