Description
Petworth is a picturesque market town nestled in the heart of the South Downs National Park, just over an hour's drive from London and only 30 minutes from the south coast. Whilst for many years famous for its abundance of antique shops Petworth has gone through a change in recent years and attracted considerable investment which has funded several new business initiatives including an award winning restaurant, high class delicatessen and bakery, a café and several lifestyle interior design shops. This in turn has encouraged other entrepreneurs to come to Petworth broadening its appeal to shoppers with high end fashion, food and lifestyle products whilst still retaining its place as the number 1 destination outside London for antiques hunters. Other Petworth attractions include the National Trust owned Petworth House with its Turner landscapes, the popular music and literary festivals, the highly acclaimed Sussex vineyards and the nearby Goodwood motoring and horse racing events. It is not surprising then that the area has become a favourite location for London buyers seeking a weekend home.
Oakapple is situated in the prime retail area of the town close to several long established shops and on the main pedestrian route from the town's car park.
Communications with London are surprisingly easy with mainline stations at Haslemere (8 miles, Waterloo 60mins.) and Pulborough (5 miles, Victoria 70mins.) The A3 (M) is within a 14 mile drive.
