We live in the village of Henfield in the beautiful South Downs area of West Sussex. Henfield has all facilities for shopping with a village supermarket, bakery, greengrocer with fresh produce and there are plenty of pubs and restaurants locally and within pretty surrounding villages. There are plenty of footpaths and river walks with lovely views of the surrounding countryside. There are many other places of interest close by to explore. Brighton and the seaside are 25 minutes away, Gatwick airport thirty minutes drive, with easy links to Europe. The nearest railway station is 6 miles, with regular trains to London and other destinations. Bus services run regularly from the village to destinations such as Horsham and Brighton. There are many nearby golf courses,swimming pools, health spas and activities for children including horse riding. For garden lovers there are some beautiful gardens open to the public. Most villages have monthly markets. ![]() Something about ourselves
