The Brookfield Hotel

Local Attractions

Situated about halfway between Portsmouth and Chichester The Brookfield Hotel is in an ideal location from which to explore the many varied attractions of the local area at the western edge of the historic and delightful village of  Emsworth.

Emsworth village centre is only a short walk away where visitors can enjoy the range of village shops, relax with a quiet drink in one of the ten pubs or just savour the attractions of the village's historic buildings and views over The Mill Pond. With a population of only 9,000 you will be pleasantly surprised by what the village has to offer and may be tempted to return for the annual Food Festival which in 2006 will be held during the weekend of September 8^th -10^th.  More energetic guests may enjoy walking around the shores of Chichester Harbour which is only a five minute walk through the fields from the hotel.

Only a short drive away are the cities of Portsmouth and Chichester and The South Downs.

Portsmouth offers shopping opportunities, perhaps at the new development of Gun Wharf Quay where you can also see the construction of Portsmouth's Millennium Tower due to be completed in 2005, sadly five years late and now renamed The Spinnaker Tower. Historical attractions abound and include The Historic Naval Dockyard, Charles Dickens' Birth Place and The D- Day Museum on Southsea seafront. Portsmouth also has a ferry port with frequent and regular sailings to the ports of Normandy, Brittany and Santander in Spain.

Chichester is a city with a rich historical and cultural heritage ranging from its ancient cathedral to the twentieth century Festival Theatre. The City Museum provides an insight into the  history of the city and the surrounding area of West Sussex. Nearby are the Tangmere Military Aviation Museum and The Roman Palace at Fishbourne, the finest example of a Roman Villa in the UK. Chichester is also the home of The Royal Military Police whose head quarters are located in the northern outskirts of the city.

The South Downs - spend a day at the races at Goodwood ,visit a country house at Uppark, stroll around the grounds at Stansted Park, view the extensive gardens at West Dean or visit the unique Weald and Downland Museum at Singleton.  These are just some of the attractions that can be found nearby.
