Felpham sits on the West Sussex coast, effectively a village in its own right despite being joined to the eastern edge of Bognor Regis. It possesses a distinct character, anchored by a conservation area where flint-fronted cottages and 12th-century architecture around St Mary’s Church remain intact. Historically, it is perhaps best known as the home of William Blake, who lived in a thatched cottage here at the turn of the 19th century. Geographically, the village is defined by its long, pebble and shingle seafront, which is lined with colourful beach huts and lacks the commercial amusements found further west. Life here tends to revolve around a handful of traditional pubs, independent shops, and the active sailing club. While the sea is the main draw, the village is also home to the Arun Leisure Centre, providing a practical hub for sports and swimming. It remains a settled, low-lying community that manages to feel tucked away from the busier coastal thoroughfares.
