Brighton
Brighton is kind of divided into areas that are all within easy walking distance of each other. Kemptown, North Laine, south lanes, high street and Hove. You can walk across the whole of Brighton and Hove in about an hour. If you stick to the centre where all the bars, restaurants and shops are then nowhere is more than 15 mins away.
If you have an urge to do the Quadrophenia tour, set off from the seafront (start at the Sea Life Centre, walk past the pier), then go to East Street, East Street Twitten (alley scene) and the Grand Hotel (bellboy!). Job done.
Huge thanks to Neil Morris and Jump The Gun for their help in putting together this guide – if you are in town, JTG (in this guide) will happily help out anyone struggling to find their bearings.
