Although it is advisable to have a car when visiting us - there are taxis and a local bus that can take you to Petworth or Chichester.
If you do not have a car and are coming by train then Pulborough is our nearest station. Although you could get a bus from Pulbrough to Petworth, a taxi might be the better option as buses are limited to certain times and days.
Trains
Our nearest Train Station is Pulborough. www.nationalrail.co.uk/stations/pulborough
Chichester Train Station is 30 minutes away - if travelling on a weekday a bus can be taken from Chichester to our local stop - however it is advisable to check the bus timetables before travelling.
Taxis
We don’t have too many of those around here. There are few reliable taxi operators in the area which are busy most of the time. With so few taxis and such a large area to cover, they are rather expensive, compared with taxis in a large city. We advise contacting the taxi company before you stay.
