Neighbourhoods

Hove, Brighton's grown-up sister, once a town of its own, next to neighbouring Brighton, both have since grown and merged into one vibrant, lively city. Western Road, Palmeira Square and Church Road stretch east to west, perfect for a stroll to sample one of the many independent cafes or restaurants. Or head down to Hove sea front with a coffee to take in the sweeping views of regency townhouses and colourful beach huts.
