Ebor Lodge

Eastbourne

On Eastbourne seafront, Ebor Lodge offers well-appointed rooms and a full breakfast menu. This East Sussex guest house has free Wi-Fi and is within 15 minutes’ walk of the Royal Hippodrome Theatre and the town’s 1930s bandstand. The host David was a lovely person who took great care of us at serving breakfast and answering to inquiries. The B&B was absolutely adorable with its attention to details from the Christmas decorations, to the sweets on your bedside table to the earplugs and sewing thread in the drawer. Every little thing was thought of.

Seaview Sanctuary

Eastbourne

At the guest house, every unit comes with a wardrobe and a flat-screen TV. All units have a kettle, a private bathroom and free WiFi, while some rooms here will provide you with a balcony and some have sea views. At the guest house, the units are fitted with bed linen and towels. The place exceeded our expectations! Hosts are very nice people who've made the whole place feel like home away from home. Every day there were freshly baked cookies/cakes downstairs which tasted so good! (for free!!). The view from our room was breath taking and even more amazing on our last 2 nights as the host was so kind to upgrade us to a room upstairs :)) Rooms are very clean and comfortable. The location is ~15-20 min walk from the town centre and close by are shops/restaurants. Beautiful promenade/walking path next to the sea. We truly enjoyed our stay in Eastbourne and suggest everyone to stay at Seaview Sanctuary!

I love the beautiful decor inside and the food is delicious. The breakfast was also wonderful with many choices. The pub is in a great location for walking to the beach in Eastbourne. Also, it is a short drive to the Seven Sisters.
