As is traditional with Brighton B&Bs we thought we should have some quirky names for our rooms;

Boogaloo Stu – one half of the fabulous two-some, Boogaloo Stu & Dolly Rocket, he’s practically a Brighton institution

Boutique – as in expensive B&Bs and also a fantastic night out

Dirty Weekend – the traditional reason to visit Brighton

Fish & Chips – a healthy, sea-side alternative to pizza. Or curry. Or kebab.

Magnus Volk – electrical engineer and inventor built the world’s first public electric railway in Brighton, in 1883.

Regency – the period in British history named after George IV (the Prince Regent, prior to the death of his father, George III – famously mad, but due in fact to the blood disease, porphyria). The Regency period encompassed significant change in England’s economic and social circumstances, presaging the Victorian age. The then Prince Regent had the Royal Pavilion constructed as his sea-side retreat.

Seagulls – Brighton’s equivalent to the Trafalgar Square pigeons, loved by some, hated by many. Also the nickname for Brighton and Hove Albion FC (loved by some…)

Skint – a record label (home to just one or two Brighton faces), and traditional circumstance for our student population
