Staying in Middleton on the Sea/Bogner Regis area

What things shall i do. Going in early may 10-17. Need a few must do trips to take and good place to do a car rental once we arrive at our house. Haven't traveled in this are before. Some unforgettable day trips or nearby places that we need to see. We will do London another time and we have already spend time there in the past.
Thanks for any tips that will make our trip more enjoyable.

I highly recommend Arundel, close to Bognor (locals just call it Bognor). Charming town with a castle that’s still lived in and open to the public.
Then of course, there’s Portsmouth and Brighton for starters.

Definitely agree on Arundel and Brighton (haven't been to Portsmouth). I also liked Lewes, which is beyond Brighton. I haven't been to the Isle of Wight but it sounds interesting.

This is a great area.

The city of Chichester has a lovely cathedral.

Near Chichester is Fishbourne Roman Palace, which is fascinating - some incredibly well-preserved mosaics, and gives a really good feel of Roman architecture.

There’s another excellent Roman villa at Bignor (not Bognor), not far away.

Again near Chichester, the charming little harbour village of Bosham (watch where you park - cars can get stranded as the tide comes in).

Portsmouth has the wonderful dockyard with its historic ships, which are well worth a day of anyone’s time.
