Accommodation in West Wittering, West Sussex
Here’s my complete guide to the best places to stay in West Wittering.
Known for its outstanding natural beauty and long stretch of golden sand, West Wittering is a popular seaside location in West Sussex. Whether you’re after a sunny summer holiday or a cosy winter getaway, this village has plenty to offer with a wide variety of accommodation options.
There’s plenty of things to do in the local area, with the nearest city, Chichester, just a 20 minute drive away. West Wittering is also located near to the Goodwood Motor Circuit, making it an ideal place to stay when attending events like Goodwood Revival, the Festival of Speed or Goodwoof.
Welcome to the Viking Skaga - one of Viking Cruises’ noble river ships. She takes her name from an ancient Norse myth, where the Valkyrie Skaga rode into battle and escorted the dead to Valhalla, before preparing them to fight in the epic battle of Ragnarok.
A relatively new ship, the Viking Skaga only entered the fleet in 2020. At just 410 feet and carrying 168 guests and 48 crew, she was built specifically to sail down the Seine in France, although the specific itinerary will vary depending on the time of year. I was fortunate enough to join the ship for her week long Christmas on the Seine cruise, which starts and ends in Paris, calling at Vernon, Caudebec-en-Caux, Rouen, Honflour (via an excursion) and Les Andelys along the way.
