A village has been named a "stardusted hotspot".
West Wittering, near Chichester, is one of the UK locations featured on The Telegraph's list of "beautiful corners of Britain where celebrities are taking over".
This is because the village has a number of celebrity residents including Hollywood A-lister Kate Winslet and rock star Keith Richards.
Singer and actor Michael Ball also has a home in the area.
In its list, The Telegraph said: "With its well-kept beach huts and duned-backed Blue Flag beach, cosy trad pubs and colourful bobbing boats, good-looking West Wittering has been dubbed 'God’s Pocket' by locals."
It added that Titanic actress Kate lives in a £4 million mansion in the village with her family.
She is reportedly often spotted shopping in Chichester's Waitrose.
Rolling Stones' Keith Richards is also seen frequently in the area including at council meetings where he reportedly opposes new beachfront developments.
He famously brought a Grade II listed cottage close to the famous beach in 1966.
The pair pleaded not guilty at Chichester Crown Court and spent time in Lewes Prison where they were held until sentencing was decided.
They faced a three-month prison sentence, but the penalty was quashed when the judgement caused public outrage.
The Times newspaper’s then editor William Rees-Mogg wrote a statement in their defence, claiming they were being treated unfairly because of their public profile.
Meanwhile, The Telegraph also reported how Nicholas Lyndhurst, known for his recent role in the Frasier reboot, is often spotted at the local beach café.
Other places on the list of these "beautiful corners" of Britain include Mawgan Porth and Padstow in Cornwall, Sandringham in Norfolk, Great Tew in the Cotswolds, Sonning in Berkshire, Bath in Somerset and Framlingham in Suffolk.
