NEARBY ATTRACTIONS
Bosham Harbour is a charming coastal spot just a short drive away. Enjoy a stroll along the water’s edge, visit the historic Saxon church, and stop for a drink at one of the cafés or the pretty waterfront pub.

For wine lovers, Ashling Park Vineyard offers award-winning wines and daily tours from Thursday to Sunday.

The historic Roman town of Chichester is just 5 miles east of Funtington. Its pedestrian-friendly centre is home to boutique shops, cafés, galleries, and Chichester Cathedral, famous for its separate bell tower, where bird watchers might spot nesting Peregrine Falcons.

West Wittering Beach is a stunning sandy Blue Flag beach and a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest. Largely undeveloped, it retains its natural beauty, making it perfect for walkers, swimmers, paddleboarders, and kite surfers. Ample parking is available.

For breathtaking panoramic views, hike to The Trundle, the highest point on the South Downs Way, offering spectacular vistas across Chichester Harbour. It’s part of the famous Goodwood Estate, known for its motorsports and horse racing events.

Garden lovers will enjoy West Dean Gardens, one of England’s greatest restored gardens. Wander along the grand pergola or explore the historic Arboretum.

Right next door, the Weald & Downland Living Museum showcases beautifully reconstructed historic buildings, set in stunning downland countryside. It’s a fascinating glimpse into Sussex’s rural past.

Guests will have exclusive use of the entire home, and secure garden with dedicated parking in front of the barn for up to two cars.
