If you are in the area, a walk up Highdown Hill gives you wonderful views across the downs, town and towards the sea. A great place for dog walks, family walks and picnics and photography. Proximity to the tea rooms, hotel, bar and restaurant mean that you can combine the walk with refreshments.

I was very impressed by my first visit. Opening on Saturdays only for a small number of visitors and you have to book. Incredibly well organised and reassuring they were taken safety seriously. Current exhibition by women artists was excellent, it has a stunning costume collection and also covers local history and archaeology. Not only that but at the end of the visit were given a brief talk by one of curators. Highly recommended

Yes it really was 10th June & a Monday & raining very hard! So to the rescue came the Connaught Theatre/Cinema! This beautiful place is supported by superb volunteers who on a Monday 1st showing provide tea or coffee & a choice of biscuits & Cinema entry ALL FOR £4 each! We saw Aladdin in very cosy seats with cupholders & a clear sound & screen view! A special mention to Fiona who made us both very welcome there as 1st timers. She was rightly enthusiastic & very informative & we will revisit again when we return to lovely Worthing.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 381 reviews
This stunning Edwardian cinema, first opened in April 1911 and, having recently celebrated its centenary, has been fully restored to its former glory and is once again open to the public. With our friendly team of staff, this is certainly the place to come and be entertained with your film of choice. We have two screens, including the opulent main auditorium, seating 500 and the more intimate 'Electric Theatre', with it's newly refurbished Premier seating.
Reviewed By Linda31Brighton - Worthing, United Kingdom
The Dome is a beautiful listed cinema in Worthing.It has retained a lot of its original features and is like ‘stepping back in time’.There are three screens.Screen 1 is my favourite as it is very big and spacious and has the most atmosphere.The seats are comfortable with plenty of leg room.There is a bar where you can enjoy a drink before the movie or even take it in with you to watch it.I love it here as it has such much character and is very relaxing.Well worth a visit-once you’ve been to this cinema you won’t want to go anywhere else!
