About Brighton

A fashionable beach city located less than an hour's train ride from London, Brighton is famous for its laid back, bohemian atmosphere, as well as its pebble beach and its historic pier. Very much a gay-friendly destination, Brighton is also popular among vegetarians and vegans, who flock to the many health food cafes and restaurants to be found here. Shopaholics and fashionistas can have fun in ´The Lanes´ - a shopping district with a difference, with narrow streets and arcades packed with small independent stores and designer boutiques selling everything from vintage fashion finds and collectables to artisan cheeses and other gourmet goodies. The pier itself is great fun for the young and the young at heart, with its traditional fun fair rides and arcades.
