A wonderful, quaint town often associated with the neighbouring Brighton to create 'Brighton and Hove', one of the south coast's most popular seaside resorts. Hove itself provides a fantastic range of shops, cafés and restaurants to enjoy down the quirky back streets. There is an excellent sense of community around this area, it's a truly amazing place to spend a holiday. As well as a good choice of amenities, there is plenty to do with a stunning stony beach, Brighton Pier, a SeaLife centre, mini golf and so much more for families and friends to enjoy. Brighton boasts a dominating tower called the British Airways 360, offering amazing views of the town and the sea. An area of Brighton called The Lanes is well worth a look with incredible street art and quaint shops catching your eye around every corner. Hove comes on the fringes of the South Downs National Park and the town has its own fair share of beauty with a range of gardens perfect for taking your dog and having a picnic.

The property was clean and exactly as advertised. The location is excellent, only a short walk to all the amenities. Any questions were answered promptly and personably. We hope to be going back in the future.

If we ever visit Brighton again, we will surely be returning. The hot tub, sauna, cinena room and golfing activities were throughly enjoyed. The welcome basket was greatly appreciated and a wonderful touch. Unsure if there is one, but clothing horse would be very convenient especially for wet swimwear and towels. Take care :)

We all had great stay. My only reserve is that it would be nice if there was a communal bath/shower upstairs, rather than sharing with the en suites.
