The ancient medieval market town of Petworth is set amidst the lush beauty of the West Sussex countryside, its winding lanes and quaint old buildings give the impression that time has stood still. Yet nothing could be further from the truth, for Petworth, whilst maintaining all the charm of the past, is a thriving town.
There is also much to enjoy in the surrounding area, including the grandeur of Arundel Castle, Nelson's 'Victory' in Portmouth Dockyards, the delightful Elizabethan mansion and gardens at Parham House and Singleton Open Air Museum, to name but a few.
All this makes Petworth a wonderful place not only for the lucky few who live here but for the many thousands who visit the area each year.
