Amberley is a small village and civil parish in the district of Horsham in West Sussex, England. Nestled at the foot of the South Downs, it overlooks the floodplain of the River Arun and the nature-rich Amberley Wild Brooks, and retains a compact centre of flint and brick cottages with a Norman church and attractive rural character.
The village draws visitors for the large open‑air industrial exhibits at Amberley Museum and the medieval origins of Amberley Castle, and sits inside the South Downs National Park so it’s popular with walkers and birdwatchers. Locally the economy mixes agriculture, tourism and commuter households, with rail access via Amberley railway station on the Arun Valley Line, while community life remains quietly village‑oriented despite the visitor trade.
