Found in the county of Sussex in the South East of England, Brighton is one of the nation’s most popular seaside resorts. Tourists flock to Brighton to enjoy its famous pebbled beaches that span for over five miles. Here visitors can expect to find a fine variety of cafes and shops along the promenade. The city is home to some of the best examples of Regency architecture in the world; this is in large part due to King George IV’s love for the city. The most distinctive of Brighton’s architecture is the Royal Pavilion, built for the Prince Regent in 1787. So whether you’re after a relaxing beach holiday or to delve into the city’s famous history, hiring a car will allow for you make the most of your time in Brighton.
Brighton offers a number of areas for visitors to shop until they drop, from the twisting alleyways and independent shops of The Laines to Churchill Square shopping centre. For the ultimate Brighton shopping experience though, we recommend heading over to North Laine. Here you’ll find shops selling all things weird and wonderful, as well as great cafes and restaurants. With its picturesque countryside and coastline it’s hardly surprising that many of the country’s most revered artists and authors have decided to call Sussex home. Located just a short 15 minute drive along the coast is Kipling Gardens, set on the site of literary giant Rudyard Kipling’s former house. Hire a car in Brighton and venture out to experience these Green Flag gardens.
