This is an excellent property, furnished and decorated to an exceptionally high standard, with so many small details to provide the most comfortable stay possible. The breakfast was outstanding with an incredible amount of choice. The hosts were extremely welcoming and professional and their service was highly attentive. I would highly recommend this property.

Excellent view of the sea and only a few minutes from the beach. Although there was no formal breakfast, they gave us a bag of snacks every morning. There's always somebody at reception and they were all friendly. I felt truly welcome. For me, it was a dream holiday and the accommodation was a vital part of that.

The hotel has a great location, few steps from the beach and 5 minutes walk to the city center full of restaurants and bars. The owner is extremely friendly and nice, the whole atmosphere and vibe of the hotel is very informal and you can feel that it is a family business. The family room for 4 people is huge, full of light and a play area outside of the room is very nice for small kids. The breakfast was very rich, freshly made with lots of choices. As a great bonus there is a owner's dog who is very friendly and loves to come and sit by guests. I recommend this hotel for families and for couples as well. Very nice experience.

Eastbourne is a lovely mixture of gentle and vibrant . There are lovely walks along the seafront,and if you enjoy a good hike the South Downs are a bus ride away.There is a an exciting food culture here from,traditional fish and chips to comforting Italian,Greek and my personal favourite Indian.The Malalayam on Terminus road keeps me coming back to Eastbourne several times a year.

Hastings was an interesting town.

Hastings was an interesting town. We enjoyed the old part of the town and the funicular railway lifts, as well as the smugglers' caves, which were a must see! There were many good bars and restaurants. The nearby towns of Battle and Rye were also well worth a visit and easily visited using local buses.

This was my 3rd trip to Rye in 2 years and this time I finally managed to see the Story of Rye told with the town model in the Heritage Centre. It really helped me understand the layout and history you find walking round the old streets. The view from the church tower is absolutely stunning and well worth the climb!

Lewes is very good as a place to stay if you are interested in history or just like browsing local shops. It also has excellent railway connections so you can get to Brighton, Hastings, Eastbourne and up into Sussex by public transport. It is hilly and a good base if you want to explore the South Downs by walking. A good range of restaurants, pubs and cafes too.

The spa was very well apportioned and it was very quiet and secluded. The staff throughout the hotel were extremely pleasant. One thing they must do in the restaurant is ensure that the wine ordered has arrived and ready to drink before the food is served. It is not good form to serve the food without the wine bottle even being at the table, let alone not opened.
