Location

Nestled on the Sussex coast, the picturesque village of Bosham is one of the most desirable locations in the region, known for its vibrant community and strong sailing heritage. At its heart lies a historic Saxon church - famously depicted in the Bayeux Tapestry - alongside Quay Meadow and the Bosham Sailing Club. The village also features an arts and crafts centre, a hotel, traditional pubs, and charming cafes.

To the north, residents benefit from convenient amenities including a post office/store, medical centre, various local shops, and a railway station. Regular train services run to London Victoria (from approximately 1 hour 43 minutes direct) via Chichester, and to London Waterloo (from around 1 hour 56 minutes with one change).

Just five miles to the east is the cathedral city of Chichester, offering a wide array of shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions within its partly pedestrianised centre. Highlights include the acclaimed Chichester Festival Theatre and the award-winning Pallant House Gallery.

While sailing is a major draw throughout Chichester Harbour, the area also caters to a wide range of leisure interests—from golf and windsurfing to watersports at the celebrated West Wittering beach. Nearby, the Goodwood Estate offers further attractions, including a world-famous racecourse, private members’ health club, and the historic motor circuit, brought back to life through the iconic Goodwood Revival.
