This cathedral was very nice and well preserved. Too bad it was already closed during my visit, due to coronavirus. But I still enjoyed the place because of its magnificent architecture. I went here solo with my camera and tripod and I had good photos. This is a must visit when in Arundel. One more thing, you can have, perhaps, the best view of it from Arundel Castle's garden grounds.

Great day out. Lots to see and do. Would defo come back... some places would be un accessible to wheel chairs... lots of steps to negotiate.

A magnificent cathedral. Arrived in a rainstorm and made most welcome. Saw the glory of Corpus Christi and enjoyed the hospitality of the church hall and seeing the happy faces of my grandchildren at the cathedral primary school.

Arundel Castle is an amazing day out. You can book online and at my time of writing you can get the Gold Pass for 21 if you avoid Gift Aid (I did because I'm poor). There are guides standing in most areas (if not quite EVERY area). They answer any question you could ask for with clear knowledge of the place. After a walk around the grounds when I first arrived, I entered the main castle at midday when it opened, and I left at just before 5 - when it closes. Trust me there is THAT much to marvel at. The guides really appreciate it (several of them expressed this to me) when you actually take the time to ENGAGE with what's infront of you, rather than just walk through glancing at everything. The craftsmanship on so many of the things, not just, for example, the ornate gold leaf clocks, but the tables and chests they're on top of. As such there is really great value for money. I loved the cafe because the wooden chairs and tables are all medieval style, so you can pretend you're royalty. The selection of main meals is a bit disappointing but the cake selection is amazing. The staff in the cafe were also very helpful and friendly. The prices are not cheap but neither are they outrageous. And the quality was high. The gift shop is really well stocked with all kinds of books and trinkets. All in all this was a really lovely place and the views from the castle are quite something. I would not really advise this place for small children - they simply won't appreciate it and will just rush through. But for those who love history, and this is living history because a lot of it is still being used by the family that owns it, I definitely recommend this. You can also park for free all day long if you grab a space along the very wide road that runs alongside the castle.

The much-conserved town has a medieval castle and Roman Catholic cathedral. Although smaller in population than most other parishes, Arundel has a museum and comes second behind much larger Chichester in its number of listed buildings in West Sussex. The River Arun runs through the eastern side of the town.
