For shopping enthusiasts, the North Laine is a must-visit, brimming with quirky boutiques, vintage stores, and independent art galleries, while The Lanes, with their narrow alleyways, charm visitors with jewelers, antiques, and cozy eateries. The city’s culinary scene is equally impressive, featuring everything from sustainable, plant-based restaurants to global cuisine and trendy food markets.

Brighton is well-connected, making it easy to reach and navigate whether you’re arriving by train, coach,or car.
