Which? said: "We asked thousands of visitors to rate their experiences at more than 100 museums, galleries and historic attractions to find the country's best and best-value days out."

With its stunning architecture, beautiful grounds, and rich history, the Cathedral is a popular destination for local residents and tourists alike. Its regular programme of concerts, exhibitions and family events saw thousands of people visit the city of Chichester last year.
