Study English in Brighton, Britain's Youngest City
Brighton is Britain's newest city and famous sea-side resort with two universities and reputedly the youngest population in the UK! It is situated on the south coast of England, approximately 80km south of London, in the beautiful county of Sussex. There is a regular and direct train service to London which takes just 49 minutes.
Granted city status in 2001, and often known as 'London-by-the-sea', Brighton offers the buzz of a large cosmopolitan centre in a relaxing seaside setting. There is much to explore: the famous pier with its fairground attractions, the Marina with its waterside cafés, bars & health clubs and the Sea Life Centre. If you like the outdoor life, walking on the beach, sitting on a café terrace and exploring designer shops, then Brighton & Hove is the place for you!
