Rock Common Quarry Viewed from Chanctonbury Ring to give an idea of the scale of the quarry. The farm to the left is Locks Farm.

Bushovel Farm, Wiston. Formerly called Bush Hovel Farm, it is seen slightly left of centre in this picture taken from Chanctonbury Ring. What is interesting is the circular shape of the field to the right of the farmhouse and buildings (with an extension on the right). This betrays it as having been an early clearing in the vast, heavily wooded Sussex Weald from which the farm was created. There are several farms along the foot of the downs here. At first sight it appears not to the be the best situation for a farm, the southern sun being blocked by the bulk of the downs for much of the year (although not at Bushovel), but it is along this line that the chalk of the downs gives way to the gault clay of the Weald and it is here that numerous springs rise, providing a plentiful supply of water.

Good location opposite train stain and train station parking. Parking opposite doesn’t have anything to do with the hotel but hotel helps in a small way via QR CODE to organise payment. Day rate parking is only until 4am not 6 or 8am which is annoying. Hotel had great breakfast choices. Complimentary ...

Lovely spa hotel with a calm, relaxing atmosphere. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the spa facilities were excellent—especially the pool and sauna. Staff were friendly and welcoming. A great place to unwind—I’d definitely visit again. Great sea front view.

8.4/10 Very Good! (803 reviews)
The hotel is modern and clean, beds comfy and everything we needed was in the room. The breakfast was hugely disappointing - the sausages and bacon barely cooked. Plus; though this was my fault for not realising, it’s not AT Gatwick airport and our taxi cost £45 at 1am to get there.
