Beautiful city, much of it pedestrianised with a whole variety of shops and lovely Cathedral - unusually free of charge. So much to do in and around Chichester and our two days were nowhere near enough. Will definitely return.
I visited Chichester to see a performance at the famous Chichester Festival Theatre but thoroughly enjoyed the town itself. The cathedral and the Bishop’s Garden were spectacular. The pedestrian streets with nice shopping in quaint buildings were fun to explore. Loved the museum a block from the Cathedral with Roman Baths underneath!
Charming, cosmopolitan ambiance. Felt civilised and up market. Cathedral one of the best, and was free. Buildings spoke of the elegance of a former age. The sort of place it would be a pleasure to revisit.
Like Xian in China, Fishbourne, where the Woolpack Inn is located, stumbled onto a Roman Palace while trenching for a water main. The museum is beautiful and the archaeological discoveries are spectacular and worth the trip.
I visited Chichester in 2007 and liked it so much I decided to live there! As a visitor, the best place to start is with the Novium Museum, which shows you the history of the district and is built around the Roman Baths. A walk round the walls is a must, as is the Cathedral, with an altar piece by John Piper, a Chagall window and the Arundel tomb, about which Philip Larkin wrote a poem. If you like modern art, there is the renowned Pallant House Gallery and the Cass Sculpture Foundation is nearby. The Chichester Festival Theatre stages its own in-house productions, many of which transfer to the West End. Besides Cineworld, there is a wonderful Arts Cinema and Chichester even has its own planetarium! There are lovely green spaces too, such as Priory Park with its Guildhall used for weddings and Bishop's Palace gardens with its exotic trees. There is also a lot to see nearby, such as the seaside, Goodwood, Fishbourne Roman Palace, Bignor Roman Villa, Petworth House, Cowdray House, Uppark House, Stansted House and the Weald and Downland Open Air Museum. You can drive to these places, but the buses are quite good, too. There are plenty of pubs, cafes and restaurants in Chichester, and they aren't all chains, either. The Nag's Head has an excellent restaurant with a carvery, and I love the Little London Café and the Vintage Tea Rooms in North Street. As a souvenir for a friend (or yourself!), you could buy chocolate from Montezuma's, a Sussex-based business.
Visit Chichester festival theatre - it's an inspiring space and they stage great shows. I ate at Cote and had great service and a lovely meal. there is parking right behind Trents but you have to navigate round the roads behind the hotel to get to it.
“Rooms are very big. The only down part for some could be is the parking. Yes it's free but only from 6pm until 10am. And the car park is private and does not offer free disabled parking. The car park has nothing to do with the hotel. But yes I would definitely stay here again.”
“Good location close to Chichester. There is a lovely walk along the canal from near to the cottage into the town that takes about half an hour. Excellent breakfast included.”
“Convenient location of my room. French door to private garden area (tho' sadly too wet to go outside!). Bed comfortable, good refreshment selection, plenty of towels, and enough storage space for a short stay.”
“Friendly service from hotel staff. Very nice rooms with comfortable beds. Excellent food and nice wines in the Richmond Arms restaurant.”
“Very clean and spacious rooms which felt more like little apartments than hotel rooms. Great food and warm staff!”
