Looking to Holiday in Brighton

Morning All,

We are looking to holiday in Brighton this year (roughly from 1st July 2012). Where would you recommend. It will be myself and my hubby with our 16 year old daughter. We would obviously like the beach but would need somewhere that has something to keep a teenage girl happy.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.:j

    We're going over Easter, though we already have the accommodation sorted (The Mercure), but I'd still appreciate any what to do type tips.

    We did go last year in April as well, but the OH was running the marathon there so he spent half of the time in bed suffering with sunburn and chaffed nipples.
  • Thanks for that TheLillaJade, my head is bursting there are so many places to choose from but I will give Hove a look too as hotels in Brighton seem to charge for parking so I will see if Hove is any different.

    Thanks again.

    I would recommend the lanes, especially the North laines on a saturday, there is a Flea Market every saturday.

    Also the seafront and pier, and Brighton Pavilion.
    I am only trying to help :rolleyes:
