Voted one of the Top 10 city beach break destinations in the world, Brighton and it's beachfront is legendary.
Brighton is bursting with attractions and great days out and activities for families. From an outlandish Royal Palace to interesting museums and a beautiful (pebbly) beach, superb shopping with lots of independent shops, award-winning restaurants and many bars, clubs and of course a fantastically unique friendly racecourse!
On top of all of this is that Brighton is less than 1 hour from London by train so no excuse not to spend a day out in Brighton and soak up many of our attractions.
Stretching out into the sea is the iconic, neon-lit pier. Expect amusements, rides and invigorating ocean views. Take a picture under the most photographed sign in the UK.
Built for King George IV, architect John Nash reimagined the domed Indian style palace you see today. Brighton Racecourse was built at the same time, as the king enjoyed horse racing.
Brighton’s colourful network of shopping streets known as The Lanes are awash with vintage gear, independent shops, fashion, gifts and homewares and of course lots of coffee shops and cafes.
Brighton is a great base for exploring the South Downs National Park, home to the dramatic Seven Sisters cliffs and some of southern England’s most charming villages.
