GUIDE TO BRIGHTON , HOVE & KEMPTOWN

A 25-minute train ride from central London, and you'll arrive at Britain's most eclectic seaside town. Brighton sits on the south coast of England, with a typical British seaside promenade complete with a funfair, boardwalk pier, shingle beach, stripy deckchairs, candy floss, fish & chips, and tacky sweet shops full of sticks of rock. It has some incredible historical architecture mixed with an arty, creative bohemian vibe, resulting in a pretty special place.

Make your way through the small, narrow North Lanes, and you'll discover a mix of unique and independent shops favored by tourists, students, and locals.

SNOOPERS PARADISE

7/8 Kensington Gardens, Brighton, Brighton and Hove, Brighton BN1 4AL

www.snoopersparadise.co.uk

I adore this place! A treasure trove of trinkets, homewares, accessories, furniture and clothing for sale by different vendors.  However, the real gem in the shop on the top floor aptly named Snoopers Attic. You’ll find a plethora of vintage for both men and women, where designer pieces like Vivienne Westwood sit alongside 1940’s silk nightgowns, army surplus, flannel shirts and 1950’s dresses. Priced at nearly half of what you’d expect in a London vintage store, it’s definitely worth snooping!
