Surrounded by some of Sussex’s finest scenery, you don’t have to look far in Petworth to discover beautiful landscapes. The walls of magnificent Petworth House surround the town, and beyond them you can find the stunning expanses of the deer park and views to the South Downs which inspired JMW Turner. Discover the ancient trees and lakes of this spectacular parkland created by ‘Capability’ Brown. Just steps away from Petworth’s charming town centre, explore the Shimmings Valley or a short distance from the town discover the heathland of Graffham Common, a former pine plantation being restored to heathland where you might see nightjars or woodlark.
