Very many thanks to Andy and Paula who were our guides at Shoreham Lifeboat Station for giving up their valuable time in order to allow our Worthing Photography Group to have a very interesting and enjoyable visit. The hospitality provided by Andy and Paula to us was first class. Nothing was too much trouble and made us all very welcome and accomodated us in every way they could as a photography group in order for us to get the best shots possible within the safety limits. We were all given as much additional time as we wanted so we could get those 'special' shots! The information given was very interesting and certainly gave us an insight as to how the station, crews and boats operate in clearly very demanding situations. It was quite clear how much of a team effort goes in to making the station operate in a friendly and safe way. Every one of our group was impressed with how interesting and enjoyable our visit was made. Finally, I'd like to pass on grateful thanks to everybody at the station who give up their time and put themselves at risk to provide assistance to those in need at sea.Having been a seafarer a few years back it was always reassuring to know that there was a reliable service to help us if the need was ever to rise.

If you are in the area, a walk up Highdown Hill gives you wonderful views across the downs, town and towards the sea. A great place for dog walks, family walks and picnics and photography. Proximity to the tea rooms, hotel, bar and restaurant mean that you can combine the walk with refreshments.

This is a beautifully restored castle. Very detail oriented. One can get free tours of the castle and the manor. L Ron Hubbard was the last owner of the castle and one can learn about his life. He loved to live there. I can see why, it is simply beautiful, the rolling hills and lot's of space around, it's a good place to take an afternoon walk and explore the castle.

Really enjoyed our day at the racing. £12 for adults, £6 for kids, free for the little little ones... great value. Take some chairs, take a coolbox etc, you'll have a great day. Basic snacks are available on site, chips and curry was a winner! The racing was fan, entertaining and exciting. The banger racing was a good laugh and we love the car jump! Seeing a Nissan Micra try to jump 20 cars and then clear the lot... more than once... that was worth the money alone! Overall, really pleased we went along and we certainly be going back again.

From the moment we walked up the drive and saw the beautiful and striking Arundel castle home to the Duke of Norfolk it was simply just breathtaking, and inside was stunning, the library took my breath away. The most amazing castle I have ever visited. The gardens are beautiful with so many beautiful features, with the beautiful Arundel Cathedral as a back drop. Would most definitely return and highly recommend a visit
