Small and 'picturesque' Sussex spot named among the UK's best for a short break
A small and "picturesque" city in Sussex has been named among the best places in the country for a short break. Which? has revealed the best city breaks in the UK for 2025. Following its latest survey of almost 4,000 Which? members, it narrowed down the best large UK cities for a short break. The survey also named the best medium-sized and best small UK cities for a short break. In April 2024, Which? asked 3,967 members to rate UK cities and towns they'd visited for leisure purposes and stayed in for at least one night in the past two years. Making the list of best small UK cities for a short break was Chichester, in West Sussex. The city earned a 69% on its customer score, which is based on a combination of overall satisfaction and how likely people are to recommend the city as a holiday destination to a friend. Each city was also ranked based on its average hotel price, food and drink, accommodation, cultural sights, shopping, ease of getting around, lack of crowds, parking and value for money. Wells, just below Bath in Somerset, got the highest customer score of anywhere in the survey with 86% and was the number one small UK cities for a short break. It was not the only spot in Sussex to be recognised. Brighton and Hove was named on the list of the best large UK cities for a short break. Chichester was recently named one of Britain's happiest places to live. On Chichester, the list by The Guardian said: "Bounded by the South Downs and the sea, Chichester's medieval graces have escaped the commuter belt blight because the 90-minute train journey puts it just out of range of London. "Dominating the city centre is the 11th-century cathedral with world-class choristers and art by Marc Chagall, John Piper and Elizabeth Frink mingling with Anglo-Saxon reliefs and medieval vaulting." It adds: "However you like to spend your spare time, you will find something to do in Chichester. There's a weekly street market in the city centre selling local produce and crafts, which is a happy place to potter. "Chichester Festival Theatre launches new works into the West End and beyond and has a stream of plays, comedy and family entertainment. And you have the great outdoors on your doorstep." Regarding things to do in the city, Visit Chichester lists recommends places such as the City Walls, Priory Park, Novium Museum and Chichester Art Trail. Recommended reading: This Sussex spot has been named one of the friendliest places in the UK Sussex seaside town that 'doesn't get love it deserves' crowned one of UK's best Why Sussex spot is among UK's best staycations (and how to spend a day here) If you are looking for things to do around Chichester too, the South Downs National Park is hugely popular and full of trails, walking routes and more to visit. Visit Chichester adds: "Further afield, there's no better place to make the most of the great outdoors than the Witterings. The pretty market towns of Midhurst and Petworth and the seaside town of Selsey are not far away and well worth a visit whilst you're in the area."
