Located on the edge of the South Downs National Park, a 3-minute drive from the coast, The Royal Oak Inn has an award-winning restaurant, a bar and free Wi-Fi.

Chichester and its railway station are less than 10 minutes by car from The Royal Oak Inn and Portsmouth is a 30-minute drive away. Guests get free parking at the property.

I had booked had electrical issues (I'm Jessica, The Wife, not Henry, btw), so the staff upgraded us to a two-story cottage next to a meadow filled with birds...and one magnificent race horse! They even brought our dinner to us, just to be kind to weary travelers -- just look at my vegan wild chestnut and mushroom pie! And the raspberry cake with sorbet to match was brilliant. Our breakfast outside on their sunny patio was wonderful - my introduction to the UK's now-popular vegan version of a proper full English Breakfast -- my plant-based sausages were divine! We met the chef who knows vegan cooking from his Eastern European religious background -- fascinating! The Royal Oak is a gem. We'll be back. Five Stars.

    The room was spotlessly clean and airy with good en-suite facilities. A comfortable,sunny outdoor area for pre-dinner drinks was a bonus.

    If you are looking for a relaxing, peaceful, scenic and beautiful place to stay, the West Dean manor house and extensive and gorgeously landscaped gardens and grounds are the place to go. Just need to have a car. Great full breakfast, but must go out for lunch and dinner. Also enjoyed the heated swimming pool. Beds very comfortable. Be warned though, no AC, no TV. Not generally needed, and windows open. Lots of places to explore (by car) for day trips.
