From Arundel on the A24 or A27, follow signs toward Littlehampton and you will cross the level crossing next to the station after about 2-3 miles.
Plenty of car parking in the industrial complex.
Train from Brighton or Portsmouth / Chichester or from London via Horsham.
There are Toilets on station.
There is no longer a Public House right next to the station but there is still one on the river to the South-East Approx 200m away. Take the road south towards Littlehampton then take the 1st left at pub sign, 'The Ship and Anchor'
There are some hotels in Arundel, or in Brighton if going by train.
Light is good if sunny for facing East (Brighton-bound) but not so great for west (Portsmouth) bound trains after they have passed through. If cloudy, good generally. Both directions accessible from platform 1, although you need to be ready for eastbound trains due to a sharp curve, but a crossing means they sound the horn as a warning anyway. Also good from the level crossing looking uphill toward the Littlehampton Junction.
