Hotel Review
Blanch House, Brighton, East Sussex
Tucked away down a quiet side street in Kemptown, this elegant Georgian townhouse features 12 individually styled rooms and a champagne bar, and is perfect for a romantic seaside getaway. Although away from the hubbub of central Brighton, it's still just five minutes' walk from both the beach and Kemptown's antique shops, cafes and quirky pubs. There's no restaurant on-site, but there's plenty in the area, and the bar offers a wide choice of cocktails, fine wines and Champagnes, as well as light bites.
