Chichester Area

One of the great well-preserved Georgian cities in the UK, Chichester has played a key role in the affairs of Sussex since at least Roman times.

The pedestrianised city centre is neatly enclosed within the ancient city walls which helps to make the city compact and pleasant to explore on foot.

Adding to Chichester’s atmosphere of elegance and sophistication is Goodwood Racecourse. One of the world’s great racecourses, with expansive views across the Downs towards the Solent, Goodwood is a picturesque gem. Even if you’re not there for the horses, there are regular concerts, the annual Festival of Speed and a beautiful mansion house to explore.
