A Summer Holiday at the Seaside

              It's summer -  so time for sea air 

- and where else but Brighton, especially when the Prince Regent is in residence at his Summer Pavilion. 

Little does he know that his fondness for sweet cakes could be the end of him. 

Among the visitors is Anna, rushing from one near-disaster to another, and Lord Giles Maltravers, the ton's most dangerous Rake, who by mischance has to act as her chaperon. 

An amusing frothy tale with cricket, races, concerts and fashion - and more besides.

                                                   The Rake's Challenge    

Sea bathing on the ladies' beach - but note the men with telescopes.

Regency Tales

  

Enjoy the trip, whether by coach, ship or on horseback.

Get cured of your ailments in Bath, enjoy the sea air in Brighton, 

walk in Hyde Park, stroll along the Gravel Walk, ride through the Pyrenees 

or go with Lady Hester Stanhope to a picnic with the ladies of the Sultan's harem in a park by the Bosphorus. 

All in the company of enterprising ladies and dashing gentlemen, on a variety of missions, good and bad.
