Hotham Park
About
Hotham Park is a Green Flag award‑winning 26‑hectare oasis in Bognor Regis that artfully blends historic splendour with natural beauty. Visitors start at the majestic 18th‑century Hotham Park House – a Grade II listed manor surrounded by formal lawns, rose beds and a delicate lake – then wander through ornamental gardens and a tranquil woodland path that hosts a vibrant art trail. This trail showcases 10 contemporary chainsaw sculptures by local artist Simon Groves, giving the park a playful, modern twist. Beyond the house and art, the park offers a serene lake ideal for picnics and leisurely walks, a children’s play area, an outdoor gym, and a café serving refreshments. The grounds are well‑maintained, ideal for dog walkers and families alike, and are open all year round with generous facilities for all ages.
