About this property

Occupying arguably one of the best addresses in Eastbourne, East Sussex, Sea Beach Cottage enjoys a superb setting overlooking the seafront in Eastbourne and is the perfect location for a family holiday. Step into the property off the bustling street on the front at Eastbourne and you find yourself in a warm and welcoming sitting room which has an inviting seating area with a TV and an electric stove-effect fire, where you can imagine curling up together to relax after a tiring day on the beach. When tummies start to rumble, make your way into the attractive kitchen/diner which is fully equipped with everything required for creating delicious cuisine for the whole family. Take a seat at the rustic dining table and look forward to tucking into leisurely meals together, or if the Eastbourne weather is kind, step outside into the enclosed courtyard and enjoy time alfresco. At bedtime, guests can choose from the master suite which includes a double bedroom with storage and an en-suite shower room, or a good-sized twin with stunning sea views. A family bathroom completes the property. Not only does Sea Beach Cottage offer beautifully presented accommodation, but it is also set in the heart of Eastbourne with its iconic seafront, where you can walk for miles along gorgeous beaches or check out the pier offering an array of traditional seaside activities. Why not treat yourself to some good old-fashioned fish and chips? Timeout magazine described Eastbourne as 'best UK place to visit in 2023'! Eastbourne has so much to offer with museums, art galleries, antique shops, bars, restaurants, and shops, making it the ideal spot for whiling away a few hours. The town is also home to several famous men and women’s tennis tournaments and there are a number of popular golf courses in the region too.

A trip to Sea Beach Cottage promises to be a trip to remember.

Since Queen Victoria ruled the crown, Eastbourne has been the ideal destination for a seaside vacation. This charming coastal town's attractiveness has grown over the years due to its moderate climate and convenient access from London. Even if you aren't quite ready for a swim, you can still enjoy the sea air by strolling down one of the five miles of award-winning shingle beaches.

With its amusement arcade, cafes, shops, and nightclub, Eastbourne's historic pier, which was constructed in 1866, provides entertainment all day long and well into the night. You can also take a speed boat ride from here around the sea.

Why not relax and observe the waves after spending the day exploring the town's museums, art galleries, and other antique stores? Sporting activities which are popular in the town include golf and tennis and the watersports festival Eastbourne Extreme attracts lots of visitors each year. Another popular event in the calendar is Airbourne, a fantastic international flying show.
