England may be known as a generally grey and damp country, but that doesn’t apply to West Sussex, the sunniest county in the country. Some 2,000 hours of sunshine fall on the county each year, so, with a bit of luck, you’ll receive warm and sunny weather during your stay in West Sussex holiday letting accommodation.
