Open Homes workspaceAbout Brighton & Hove
Brighton grew from a fishing village into England's most fashionable seaside resort after the Prince Regent (later George IV) built the exotic Royal Pavilion here in the early 19th century. The arrival of the railway from London made it a hugely popular day-trip and holiday destination. Known for its bohemian, creative and inclusive character, its historic Lanes, the Palace Pier and a lively arts scene, Brighton & Hove is now a city that offers renters a vibrant, in-demand coastal market with fast trains to London.
