Kemptown cottages

Self-catering Kemptown cottages

Kemptown is an area of central Brighton and Hove, in Sussex, just a 5-minute walk away from its centre and coast. Bursting with personality, Kemptown is where Regency-era architecture meets Bohemian life, as the streets of this little enclave are lined with independent bars, cafes, restaurants, vintage shops and so much more. Our Kemptown holiday cottages highlight the beauty of the local architecture and their stylish interiors are testament to how old and new blend effortlessly in Kemptown. All our homes in the area are self-catering, affording you flexibility during your holiday and are all within easy walking distance of the beach and a pub - what’s not to love? 

Thomas Kemp was the original designer of Kemptown and the residential area began development in the early nineteenth-century. Nowadays, the area more aptly refers to the slightly larger area around King’s Cliff, but Kemptown’s varied and bright architecture is still a core factor in the area’s undeniable charm. Brighton and Hove is well-known for its welcoming LGBT+ community and Kemptown is regarded as the part of the Sussex town where the community thrives most. A long-time hive for artists, actors and performers, Kemptown nourishes its liberal scene. There is no better way to experience Kemptown’s buzz than visiting during the Kemptown Carnival, which occurs annually in June. The carnival is a colourful display of music, dancing and performing and has been celebrated for over 100 years!
