Brighton Marina is a unique development that has grown into a thriving retail and leisure destination since its opening in 1979. The six million people who visit each year are drawn not just by the surrounding natural beauty, but by the promise of a great day out in one of the UK’s most popular seaside towns. Situated in a vibrant waterside setting, the Marina is home to Brighton’s premier cinema, the recently refurbished 8-sreen Cineworld cinema, Hollywood Bowl Bowling Alley, David Lloyd Health & Fitness Centre & Rendezvous Casino. Brighton Marina is located just a short distance to the east of Brighton City Centre & along from the Iconic Brighton/Palace Pier, on the A259 coastal road. The scheme is also serviced by the Volks Railway, which runs along the seafront and there are also a number of bus routes that connect the marina to the city centre. Brighton Marina is a microcosm of Brighton itself, yet a destination in its own right, within a 127 acre complex offering a multitude of leisure activities. Neighbouring locations have seen a great deal of positive development in recent times, which include The Amex Community Football Stadium, Sussex University Hospital, The Edward Street Quarter & The Circus Street Development. Proposed developments are also anticipated for sites such as Black Rock adjacent to Brighton Marina where an initial rejuvenation is planned which will include new activity hub to include an informal play area and multi-use games area as well a new boardwalk linking to the marina. To the north of the marina is the former gasworks where developer St William “plan to redevelop Brighton Gasworks from a redundant gasworks site into an exciting new part of the city”. With convenient regular train links to London, Brighton is a popular place for those to reside who require access to the capital on a regular basis.

Frequently Asked Questions About Renting A Restaurant in Preston East Sussex

Learn More
What should I consider before renting a restaurant?
Consider the location, footfall, nearby competition, size of the premises, kitchen facilities, extraction systems, licensing, business rates, and whether the layout supports your concept. Planning permission and permitted use are also key.
What is the typical lease length for a restaurant?
Most restaurant leases in the UK are between 5 and 15 years, often with a break clause or rent review after a set period. Short-term lets or pop-ups may be available in some areas.
Do I need planning permission to open a restaurant?

Usually not. Business rates are typically paid separately by the tenant. However, some landlords may offer rent packages that include rates or service charges. Always confirm what's included.
