The Welldiggers Arms

"This 300-year-old roadside inn and top-notch gastropub overlooks the rolling hills of West Sussex’s South Downs National Park. Bring your wellies and your dog for a weekend in the country."

The Welldiggers Arms

"Gazing across the rolling farmland at the back of the Welldiggers is like stepping into a painting by John Nash. Rows of potatoes and asparagus follow the undulating soil in symmetrical lines before tapering beyond a hill towards the South Downs. It’s gorgeous."
