80th birthday break

Surprised the bed wasn’t made up or the bathroom cleaned. Morning breakfast made chef aware I didn’t like runny eggs and to ensure the egg yoke was hard on all of the breakfasts the egg yokes were runny I therefore couldn’t eat them that was disappointing. However everything else was to the highest of standards nice staff

We had such a lovely stay. A warm welcome from friendly staff, a beautiful two room suite that was comfortable and had everything we needed for our family and a delicious home cooked breakfast in the sunny breakfast room over-looking the seafront.

Incredible, hard working and very responsive staff. Adri and her team make this place feel like a family home. Location is also prime, yet tucked away behind the pier so you get the quaint ambiance of Eastbourne and it's a bit quieter.

Last minute Easter stay

A last minute Easter overnight stay, which we used a voucher to book through Hotels.com Location was good, right on the seafront. Parking is on street and difficult to find even this early in the season. Audrey was a great host, very welcoming and made us feel right at home. We were given an upgrade to a sea view room which was a lovely surprise. The room was lovely and bright with a large balcony. The room needed a little tlc - sockets not working, shelf over sink prohibits you from washing your face… Lovely hot full English breakfast, although obviously a new waitress so service to/from the kitchen was sketchy but I’m sure will improve with experience and a little confidence. All in all a nice little BnB and one we would stay at again!
