Pub Walks

Noahs Ark, Lurgashall

The Noahs Ark in Lurgashall is a 16th century pub, located in the quiet village of Lurgashall. On warmer days, you can enjoy sitting out and looking out onto the green. The food is delicious also, with all of your traditional pub classics!

Suggested Pub Walk: Our Lurgashall walk is a 1 hour circular walk through an orchard and brings you out on a footpath just next to the pub. A little wet in January (wear wellies!) but would be lovely in summer months!

Duke of Cumberland Pub

The Duke of Cumberland pub in Henley has a stunning landscaped garden and is a 16th century pub and importantly, dog friendly. This pub is lovely to enjoy on a summers day, sitting out on the many tables in the garden, enjoying the ponds and birds and there are different areas to enjoy in the garden. The pub also serves delicious food – we went at lunch and had a delicious BLT!

Suggested Pub Walk: Our Woolbeding Common Circular Walk includes the Duke of Cumberland roughly half way round and is a lovely 7km walk featuring the Serpent Trail, Lipchis Way and stunning views.

The Amberley Black Horse

The Amberley Black Horse is also relatively new to the scene, which opened at the end of 2018. It is located in the beautiful village of Amberley, nestled in the South Down’s National Park. The pub has 11 bedrooms, a tastefully decorated restaurant, a private dining room, bar and dining terrace and garden. They serve a range of British classics, serving seasonal food and changing their menu regularly. We would recommend one of Johnnie’s pies, which is served with the creamiest mashed potato! They have a great range of cocktails, or if ale is more your scene, why not try their ‘Amberley’s Ale’, a blonde bitter made just up the road in Petworth.

Address: High Street, Amberley, West Sussex, BN18 9NL.

Suggested Pub Walk: Our Amberley Brooks walk is 9.5km or 5.9 long and begins at the pub and takes you on a circular route through the Amberley Brooks and past the Greatham bridge.

The Black Rabbit, Arundel

The Black Rabbit has arguably the best views in Sussex, situated next to the River Arun with views over towards Arundel Castle. There is plenty of crowd-pleasers on the menu to choose from, including fish & chips, pies, steak frites and a good selection of burgers but they also serve some more unique dishes depending on which mood you’re in.

The Burger Shop Co. which has a branch in Arundel has opened a new branch in the up-and-coming Piries Place in Horsham opposite the Everyman Cinema. Tuck into a range of beef, chicken and vegetarian and vegan burgers alongside some delicious sides (we recommend the bacon fries!). Wash this down with a shake, craft beer or one of their tasty cocktails.
