We are driving down to Brighton in July from Glasgow to stay with friends for a couple of days with two young kids (6&4) in tow. We've got a bit of time off work and wanted to stop somewhere for a few days on the way back, somewhere that the kids will like, so would consider a city and the all the stuff those offer but would also consider somewhere coastal with beaches etc.

Ideally don't want to be more than 4-5 hours drive back from Glasgow and haven't really explored the East of England before, so I'd be interested in heading in that direction but just not familiar with it at all.
