Holiday accommodation in Brighton

A perennially popular seaside resort on the English coastline, Brighton has been attracting hordes of London day trippers for decades. Tourists come to sun themselves on the pebbles of Brighton Beach, to ride the dodgem cars on Brighton Pier, to ogle at the opulence of the Royal Pavillion and to wander amongst the hippies and goths of the North Laine. If all that sightseeing and sea air has worked up an appetite, head to the seafront for some sensational seafood. Here, stallholders serve up a tempting array of fresh cockles, mussels, and oysters, along with crab sandwiches and fish soup. If you choose self-catering Brighton accommodation, you can also take advantage of the wonderful Brighton Farm Market, home to a sensational range of fresh, seasonal produce. Stock up on everything from fruit, vegetables, meat and fish to honey, cakes, olives and cheeses. Not only will you save money on dining out, you’ll get to shop amongst the locals for a true taste of local Brighton life.
