Location

The beautiful village of Bosham is one of the most highly sought after locations on the Sussex coast, with a thriving local community and sailing scene. The village has an ancient Saxon Church, featured in the Bayeux Tapestry, Quay Meadow and Bosham Sailing Club. There is an arts and crafts centre, a hotel, pubs and cafes. To the north of the village there is a post office/ store and medical centre, a further selection of local shops and a railway station. This provides services running to London Victoria via Chichester, or London Waterloo via Havant.

The cathedral city of Chichester lies some five miles to the east and provides a comprehensive range of facilities around a partly pedestrianised centre. It is home to the renowned Chichester Festival Theatre and award-winning Pallant House Gallery. While sailing is probably the premier pastime locally and throughout Chichester Harbour, other leisure activities include a number of golf courses, windsurfing and watersports generally from the renowned West Wittering beach amongst others, and the many facilities of the Goodwood Estate; this includes the internationally known race course, private health club and the revival of the historic motor circuit.
