Heritage and Events
Bywaves is located in an area of West Sussex steeped in history and hosting a diverse range of events and activities throughout the year.
This blend of rich heritage, maritime history, cosmopolitan living and diversity of activities, make it an enviable location to live.
Just a 20-minute car journey away is the historic cathedral city of Chichester with its Roman villas, art galleries, Festival Theatre, the South Downs Planetarium, parks and architecture of significance.
There is history to be explored on each and every corner, from the imposing 900-year-old Norman cathedral to the Tudor Market Cross.
Nestled at the foot of the South Downs and home to The Earl and Countess of March, Goodwood House gives its visitors an insight into the grandeur of a stately home.
Petrolheads will also love Goodwood’s Festival of Speed, one of the world’s largest car events and the Goodwood revival which captures the allure of motor racing in a bygone era.
For horse racing fans Glorious Goodwood provides a chic, relaxing and stylish venue to have a flutter or merely people watch.
To the west lies Portsmouth, where you will discover a conspicuous contrast of old and new nestling together. Portsmouth’s Historic Dockyard, showcasing 800 years of naval history and home to the Mary Rose, HMS Victory and HMS Warrior, lies within close proximity of a new landmark, the Spinnaker Tower, which at 170m high is currently the highest viewing tower in Britain.
The city also has some fine museums including the Royal Marines Museum and the D-Day Museum. Portsmouth also has a rich literary heritage and several famous authors have spent time in the city, the most notable, perhaps, being Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Charles Dickens.
To the east of Bywaves you can find Arundel Castle, a restored medieval castle which was founded in 1067. From the 11th Century onwards it has served as the hereditary stately home and has been in the family of the Duke of Norfolk for more than 400 years.
This rich heritage along with a multitude of things to see and do in the world of sport, arts and entertainment combine to make the environment around Bywaves an ideal place to live.
