The closest pub to Goodwood
Food and music festivals
Our close proximity to West Dean Gardens enhances our events calendar with food and music festivals which start in April and go on till October. The Fox Goes Free is often a popular watering hole for keen ramblers and cyclists enjoying our location at the foot of Levin Down in the beautiful South Downs.
Full event capability
We offer an excellent pre or après social for all the local events and cater for these with a well organised food, drink and accommodation offering.
At the Fox Goes Free there is always something going on!
