About Midhurst

Midhurst is a handsome Georgian market town set in the heart of West Sussex, serving as a natural stopping point along journeys between the South Downs and the Sussex Weald. The town's broad high street is lined with independent shops, period architecture, and cafes, reflecting its heritage as a historic coaching town on the London to Portsmouth route.

Visitors will find themselves drawn to the atmospheric streets around the church and the old town square, where traditional architecture sits alongside modern retail and hospitality. The town's position makes it an ideal base for exploring the wider area, with Cowdray Ruins within walking distance to the south. Midhurst offers the walker and traveller genuine small-town charm without the crush of larger centres, making it a natural hub for exploring the South Downs Way and the surrounding countryside.
