Great central yet quiet location. Tucked away. The host has thought about the little details to make the stay enjoyable.

Lock box would have been a problem for someone less mobile than we are as it was very low down the post, so difficult to access.

The location was amazing...perfect for shopping and mooching but also heading back for some down time before an evening meal. Very clean accommodation and beds were lovely.

Clean and comfortable with a lot of character and style. The house had a lovely feel and was well resourced. The coffee/tea/bowl of sweets was a lovely touch. It was very close to the station and the Lanes - perfect for our needs. Communication...

The location, it's proximity to the Laines. The serenity (apart from the day the smoke detectors went off thanks to my smoky sausages! Apologies to the local neighbours 😁). Very comfortable , the whole family enjoyed our stay & we've already...

Everything! The location was perfect, a short walk from the railway station & the North Laines & just 15 mins walk to the beach, yet the cottage was tucked away down a small, quiet, residential, well-lit leafy lane. This older terraced property...

You would not believe that this secluded and cosy Victorian cottage is quite literally in the centre of Brighton! Located on a secret pathway in the most fashionable North Laine area, Trafagar Cottage is minutes walk from the station, cafes, restaurants, boutiques, Brighton beach, Brighton Pier and all the attractions. Tastefully decorated and full of natural light it is perfect for short or long break. With a fully fitted kitchen, free Wi-fi, and smart TV, the cottage is perfect for 2 people, yet has 2 double bedrooms for up to 4 guests, and the possibilty to convert one into a home office. You'll have the entire place to yourself, a perfect space for a quiet stay and work from home. Its standout feature is the private sun filled garden with outside dining area - simply lovely!
I'm an underwater and wildlife photographer and designer. I love travelling and visiting new places! Favourite things are my family, my two cats and my home. I speak English, French and some Italian and hope you enjoy my very special house and garden in Brighton. Unfortunately I will not be available in person to greet you, however I am always available to answer questions via the message box which I monitor regularly, or by phone so please don't hesitate to ask me for help or recommendations.
The location of Trafalgar Cottage is perfect. Just 3 mins walk from Brighton Station (trains to Gatwick and London) and a secure overnight Car Park, the Cottage is down a secret pedestrian passageway, a unique oasis of tranquility right in the fashionable North Laine area, and also walking distance to the beach. The North Laine's colourful streets, vibrant and eclectic selection of independent vintage, fashion and homewares boutiques, specialist coffee shops, bars, cafes and market stalls, are the most atmospheric and unique area of Brighton - all on your doorstep. Brighton's main attraction is moments away, The stunning Royal Pavilion, built in 1787 by George, Prince of Wales is Brighton's most iconic site, with outstanding Regency rooms and architecture and an art gallery. It is surrounded by pristine and beautiful gardens, perfect for relaxing in the Summer listening to local jazz. Walk southwards to the fashionable little streets of The Lanes, with upmarket boutiques and restaurants, and then have fish & chips on the famous Brighton Beach with its shops, cafes, Brighton Pier and Funfair, Sealife and the i360 Viewing Tower. Everywhere is walkable from Trafalgar Cottage!
