Brighton
train station
is at the head of Queen's Road, which descends to the Clock Tower and then becomes West Street which eventually collides with the seafront - a distance of about half a mile.
Buses
arrive at Pool Valley bus station, tucked just in from the seafront on the south side of the Old Steine. The
tourist office
is at 10 Bartholomew Square, behind the town hall on the southern side of the Lanes (June-Sept Mon-Fri 9am-6pm, Sat 10am-5pm, Sun 10am-4pm; Oct-May Mon-Sat 9am-5pm; tel 0906/7112255), a maze of narrow alleyways marking Brighton's Old Town. You'll find most budget
accommodation
clustered around the Kemp Town district, to the east of the Palace Pier, with the more elegant and expensive hotels west of the town centre around Regency Square, opposite the West Pier. Brighton's official
campsite
is the year-round
Sheepcote Valley
site (tel 01273/626546), just north of Brighton Marina; take bus #1 or #1A to Wilson Avenue, or take the Volks railway and walk up Arundel Road to Wilson Avenue. Other useful information
