Very many thanks to Andy and Paula who were our guides at Shoreham Lifeboat Station for giving up their valuable time in order to allow our Worthing Photography Group to have a very interesting and enjoyable visit. The hospitality provided by Andy and Paula to us was first class. Nothing was too much trouble and made us all very welcome and accomodated us in every way they could as a photography group in order for us to get the best shots possible within the safety limits. We were all given as much additional time as we wanted so we could get those 'special' shots! The information given was very interesting and certainly gave us an insight as to how the station, crews and boats operate in clearly very demanding situations. It was quite clear how much of a team effort goes in to making the station operate in a friendly and safe way. Every one of our group was impressed with how interesting and enjoyable our visit was made. Finally, I'd like to pass on grateful thanks to everybody at the station who give up their time and put themselves at risk to provide assistance to those in need at sea.Having been a seafarer a few years back it was always reassuring to know that there was a reliable service to help us if the need was ever to rise.

Walking along the port road in Shoreham-by-Sea is a dismal affair and then you come across this oasis in the industrial boreingness. This is a proper pub, great memorabilia on the walls, a range of well kept beers, pies, a beer garden, live music, pub quiz, friendly staff. It’s all here.

This is a great liitle place that specialises in real ales and ciders, many local. Some wines also available. Always great people there to have a chat with - one of the friendliest pubs in Shoreham! Located just of the high street. Can be crowded as it's a small place, but service always very prompt and knowledgable. Well worth a visit.
8. Brighton City Airport
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 222 reviews
Brighton City Airport is the UK's oldest fully operational licensed aerodrome and remains at the forefront of general aviation in this country. Built in 1934, the Art-Deco Terminal Building is Grade II* listed and is still in everyday use by business, training and pleasure flyers alike including many visitors from Europe. Many of the fixtures are original including the Whispering Gallery on the first floor and the main window design above the main entrance. In addition to aviation, the airport has also appeared in a number of high profile films, such as the Da Vinci Code, Poirot and more recently as Vienna Airport in the Woman in Gold, starring Dame Helen Mirren. During the summer of 2015, the airport played host to the inaugural Wild Life music festival, with headline acts such as Mark Ronson and Rudimental. The event also won the Best New Festival award in 2015 and brought significant benefits to the local economy. The Terminal Building also houses the Hummingbird Restaurant which includes an outdoor seating area where the whole airfield can be viewed. The Terminal Building underwent an external renovation to take it back to its former glory, which was completed in 2015.

Stopped here the other day with the grandkids. Thought it a great thing for the kids to see with small aircraft and helicopters taking off and landing right next to our seats. I must say all of the staff were excellent in the way they handled our visit. Clear instructions on what we were to do, everything seemed spotlessly clean with the tables sanitised after every customer. The whole experience made us feel really comfortable during the current predicament. Thanks to all on site.

Had driven by this venue a number of times enroute to Brighton and finally seized an opportunity to drop in. Was pleased I did. Bar staff were immediately welcoming, friendly and efficient, plus attentive throughout our visit in knowing when we needed more drinks before we needed to ask. All this despite being a busy night with live music; no charge for the music (a Blues Music Band on this occasion) and they just do what most live music venues do in Brighton by taking an empty beer jug around for voluntary tips for the band. As the name suggests, there is a motorsport theme in the venue’s decor; particularly liked the photos on the wall and the table with an engine base and sport car seats. Great selection of beers and real ales (recommend the ‘Proper Job’). Will be returning (more than once!).
