Harrods Department Store, London

Probably the most overrated but largest department store in the world is Harrods. It is extremely overprice and overcrowd no matter what time of the year you visit. Harrods is a tourist attraction in itself and would definitely take hours to explore especially when you are battling against the crowds. However in saying this, i do highly recommend a visit to the food courts! The food courts are amazing! You could spend an hour in itself browsing (and drooling) their different departments of delicious goodies like their cheese, chocolate and seafood departments. The quality of the food is next to none but you will pay for it of course! I recommend exploring Harrods food courts before the lunch rush hour!

Brighton

I am absolutely in love with the sea-side city of Brighton! The pebbled beach, Brighton's Pier's amusement arcade, the Royal Pavilion and the amazing shops, restaurants and bars. I now understand why Londoners travel to Brighton for weekend getaways. Brighton is buzzing with activity and seems to have something for everyone!

The Beach & Pier 

Brighton beach front is fill of bars, restaurants, nightclubs, sports facilities and amusement arcades. The pebbled beaches are armed with rent-a-chairs to rent and relax in.

There is always something exciting happening at the Pier. Brighton Pier is decked out with the latest video games, thrill ride and retail shops to ensure for the best seaside entertainment. There are also three bars and over thirty food kiosks, traditional seaside stall and two amusement arcades for the whole family to enjoy. 

Shopping Lanes

Crammed with quaint and wondrous shops and funky restaurants and cafes, the Brighton Lanes are the best wandered lazily and explored as you find them. I reckon Brighton would have to offer some of the best shopping on the South Coast at any time of the year. Whether you want to soak up the sun with a spring or summer shopping trip or take the chill out of winter with a heaven sent shopping spree, Brighton is the place to go. The city  lane ways are packed with independent shops offering an extraordinary mix of antiques and jewellery shops nestling alongside specialist contemporary and designer fashion boutiques.
