THE LOCAL AREA
Ferring is a picturesque, vibrant and popular seaside village with lots of fantastic local businesses within an enjoyable walk of Ocean Cottage. There is the very well known Bluebird cafe, serving delicious food, drinks and ice creams right on the beach just a 5 minute walk away as well as an organic butcher, a delicatessen with microbar, 2 cafe/bars, a fabulous tapas restaurant with cocktail bar that attracts people from miles around, a bring your own booze Indian restaurant, convenience stores with post office and a hairdresser. The village has a great community spirit and is very welcoming - there are often events at the village hall and live music and comedy nights at the various village centre bars.
The beaches of Ferring are incredibly popular with paddle boarders, kite surfers & windsurfers as well as families and it’s never too busy.
You could while away a week or even a month without needing to leave Ferring – in fact, that would be “get away from it all bliss !” However, if you do want to explore, Brighton, Chichester, Arundel, Goodwood, Steyning and Littlehampton are all close by.
The cottage is very close to the bus stop for the route into Worthing. The closest train station is Goring by Sea.
For walkers, there are flat walks along the beach, up the river Rife, across the river and fields into Kingston Gorse and for more of a hike, head up to Highdown Hill and onto the South Downs National Park.
