National Trust - Petworth House and Park

A grand stately-home day out where the parkland is as much the attraction as the house itself. Petworth House and Park is a National Trust site with a large landscaped deer park and a historic house known for art and impressive interiors. The outdoor space is ideal for long walks with wide views and plenty of room to stretch the day. Inside visits add a more structured heritage element if you want to combine fresh air with culture. It works well as a full outing from Brighton because you can tailor it to a couple of hours or make it an all-day plan with a slower pace. Bring comfortable shoes and plan time for the parkland even if you think you are only going for the house.
