Somewhere 'countryside' would be good. Must have a sense of space. Family type home, anything style considered. ~I don't really know the areas around but have family in Hove. We are in our 50's but are not looking for 'retirement' properties. We are in loftstyle accommodation in London.

Ignore the previous posts by idiots, Brighton is an amazing place to live, as I'm sure you are probably aware due to your family living in nearby Hove.
In terms of countryside in Brighton, there isn't much, the vast majority is built-up urban areas. You may find some places near the South Downs.
Lewes is a lovely area, with an amazing free firework display every year, although I hear it's even more expensive than Brighton itself.
Elsewhere, you've got Coldean, Patcham and Withdean all border the Downs, and Woodingdean which is a really nice area (my old landlord lived in Woodingdean). I think Rottingdean and Saltdean are also fairly rural areas, but I can't honestly remember.
Like I said, Brighton is a fantastic place to live, but you are aware it's a massively young City with a much higher than normal student percentage aren't you?
If I were at a retiring age, I'd probably look into somwhere like Shoreham or Worthing, still close to Brighton but much more quiet and relaxed.
Hope that helps.

Brighton is a creepy place! Really!
Try Bognar Regis. It is close to Brighton and no croosdressers
