The Brighton Pavilion, Dome and Pier, remind us of its Georgian Royalpatronage and fashionability.

Today, all major high street shops and brands can be found in the citycentre, or in the seemingly unending winding alleys that form The Lanes.

There are many excellent places to eat to suit all pockets, bars to suit all tastes and coffee and tea shops.

History

Did you know Ovingdean Hall is a listed building that was originally built by Nathaniel Kemp and called Ovingdean House in 1792? Its distinctive period doorway has been incorporated in to the new visual identity of Ovingdean Hall International Language College, creating a highly recognisable icon.

Over the years the Hall has been a private residence, a school for Young Gentlemen, has housed both Crimean and Napoleonic prisoners of war, has played host to Commonwealth forces and has latterly been a school for the hard of hearing.

Established in 2011, Ovingdean Hall International Language College has been set up specifically to provide a first-class learning environment forvisiting international students.

Continuing with the educational heritage of the site, we encourage academic excellence but also want our students to enjoy a culturally and sociallyenhancing experience.
