Friendly welcome from the staff and lovely communal lounge and reception areas. The B&B is in a great location, about 3 minutes walk from the beach, or 5 minutes into town or to the theatres. The available parking is also a huge bonus. The breakfast had a very good selection and was of high quality. Overall, a lovely B&B and we hope to return sometime.

Lovely place, clean and fresh room with heated blanket for those colder evenings, fresh and clean bathroom, tea and coffee making facilities in room well topped up and tv, free parking which is nice and private (although very tight if you have a large vehicle) and loads of choice at breakfast. Little gem of a place, and really good price, I only stayed one night but will definitely book again.

I’ve stayed here several time when going to a board game event nearby. I think it’s the best place to stay in Eastbourne. The staff are super nice and the rooms have a lovely cosy feel to them. The main areas of the hotel are decorated beautifully and the breakfast is tasty with lots of options.
