Short Breaks in Brighton and Hove
Brighton is a lively, seaside resort with a captivating blend of historical elegance and contemporary, creative culture. The Arts are well supported by the town with the Brighton Dome hosting an exciting programme of live music, dance, theatre and comedy, while the Grade II listed Duke of York’s cinema screens an eclectic mix of art house, independent, foreign, cult and classic films. The Theatre Royal Brighton offers a wonderful programme of West End shows while lovers of the visual arts will enjoy the inspiring collections at the Brighton Museum and Art Gallery.
Brighton is fantastic for water sports; sailing, fishing, powerboat rides, scuba diving, kayaking and wakeboarding are all on offer on Brighton’s shores. Cycling is a popular local pursuit and bikes can be hired to explore the coastline and countryside further afield.
Famous for its Georgian architecture, you will find many gracious 18th century buildings in the town, the most spectacular of which is the Royal Pavilion that was built as a holiday home for King George IV.
