Littlehampton is a coastal gem sheltered by the South Downs. Situated at the mouth of the picturesque River Arun, it is a charmingly individual seaside town with a distinctive maritime character. Over the past few years the town has had a revamp and is now challenging Brighton, Shoreham, Hove, Worthing and Chichester as "the place to live".

Littlehampton offers a choice of beaches. There is East Beach with its long promenade, parklands, funfair and traditional seaside fun or the unspoiled grassy sand dunes of West Beach. The River Arun divides Littlehampton’s East and West beaches with its harbour and marina. Together, the river and sea offer a range of pursuits from boating trips to deep sea fishing, scuba diving, water skiing and sailing. Other attractions include a golf course, theatre, sports centre, museum and the distinctive and award winning East Beach Café, whilst Harbour Park, an all-weather adventure village, offers family fun for all ages.

This property is situated within a short walk from Littlehampton's superb beaches and recreational facilities and the town centre with its many amenities which include a mainline station to Gatwick Airport and London Victoria, doctors, dentists, primary and junior schools and the Littlehampton Academy.
