Just had the most amazing experience doing the hawk walk with my mum for Mother’s Day! Mum said it was the most breath taking experience she’s ever had! Being up close and personal with the birds is incredible! Would highly recommend to anyone who’s looking for a gift that’s out of the box! Looking forward to the next one! ????

From the moment we walked up the drive and saw the beautiful and striking Arundel castle home to the Duke of Norfolk it was simply just breathtaking, and inside was stunning, the library took my breath away. The most amazing castle I have ever visited. The gardens are beautiful with so many beautiful features, with the beautiful Arundel Cathedral as a back drop. Would most definitely return and highly recommend a visit

My wife and I came here to see live at the Regis with Bobby Davro as the headline act. The whole show was so well put together with some great local acts as well as an amazing ventriloquist and then there was Bobby Davro, what a comic he is. FANTASTIC, if you get a chance to see Bobby Davro anywhere then I would suggest you go. So so funny, great to see him performing in our local theatre. We will be back to see lots more shows after that. Top entertainment in Bognor Regis.

Mewsbrook Park

Mewsbrook Park is just a minute’s walk from the beach in the seaside resort of Littlehampton, West Sussex. It covers approximately four hectares and boasts a number of attractions including boating lake, miniature railway, café, original art deco shelters and children’s play area. Opened in 1939, the Mewsbrook sets a high horticultural bench mark for public parks. Large shrub and long herbaceous borders together with bee and butterfly gardens provide colour and interest throughout the year. The lake serves as an excellent local amenity, and is regularly used by visitors for boating. The lake and island are also a haven for wildlife. Starting in 2017 a new leisure centre is to be built, accommodating a proportion of Ruby Gardens. A re landscaped Ruby Gardens is anticipated to open in 2018 with focus on conservation. There is a positive sense of community in the park, supported by the Friends of Mewsbrook Park, Mewsbrook Park Café and Boat Hire and Littlehampton Miniature Railway.

This is a lovely little park with a miniature railway, playpark, boating lake, lovely cafe, public facilities, beautiful garden areas, small woodland area and easily accessible walk around the lake. The air smells amazing in summer as the lavender blooms. There is a family of swans who grace the pond and bring much joy to locals. It is also right by the beach so there is a wealth of beauty and nature to enjoy.

Took me back to my childhood, walking barefoot in the warmth of the shallows, lovely firm sand and then the excrutiating pain of struggling up the shingle to get back to the promenade. Memories are made of this.

Littlehampton Beach

Reviewed By 247miked - Fareham, United Kingdom

The weather will draw the crowds to this glorious sandy beach. Low tide reveals a massive amount of sand. Crabbing off the river wall, fish and chips, ice cream and a new ferris wheel. Oh, the delights of at day at the seaside. Parking is a nightmare but wharf lane is free and only a short walk via the bridge over the river Arun. Come and enjoy, like it used to be.
