Bignor Park is an 11-acre garden and arboretum below the South Downs at Bignor, with long views out over the Downland. It opens to visitors only on selected days and by arrangement, with paid entry, so it’s worth checking the dates before setting off rather than turning up. Amberley station is about 5km to the south-east.
