By The Sea Bed and Breakfast — Hotel in Eastbourne

Fantastic 3 night stay at this B & B, we were met by Matthew on arrival who was a great host and so friendly. Room was very large with extra bench seating and coffee table to sit a look out at the views. The room ( room 4) had a large balcony with table and chairs, road noise at night was not a particular issue, due to good double glazed windows. The room was furnished to a high standard with a very comfy bed and perfect pillows, and was extremely clean, extras included were an electric fan, a blanket and hairdryer, as well as a large amount of teabags/nescafe coffee sachets/uht milk pods and packets of biscuits which could be topped up if requested. Breakfast consisted of full English which was cooked to order and had quality ingredients, or could choose from an omelette with different fillings or a selection of bread/bacon/pastries. There was also a good selection of cereals and they were all good quality too, as well as flavoured yoghurt pots and Greek style yoghurt pots and fresh chopped fruit. You can also help yourself to bread with a toaster provided, and a selection of preserves. For drink there's filter coffee, nescafe coffee sachets and a hot water machine for tea making. There was also very good orange juice and a bottle of lovely cold water. ( I only had to ask for water and Matthew remembered for the next day breakfast). Matthew was very attentive asking if there was anything we needed. We would definitely recommend 'by the sea' to anyone who wanted an adult only place to stay with it being one of most comfortable places we've ever stayed...

We stayed in room 4 which had a large balcony, big bed, was very comfortable, i have back problems and the bed was lovely. Tastefully well presented room with all you need for a comfortable stay, complimentary biscuits, teas, coffee, milk, kettle etc. Bathroom was super with ample hot water on demand and complimentary toiletries that were very nice quality. The breakfast was absolutely lovely, with a good choice, and coffee was really nice which lots of other places let themselves down on. As well as the room and breakfast being outstanding we wanted to say that the Owner Matthew was a pleasure to deal with, could not have done more for use! and his mum on finding out we had to leave pre breakfast as there was an issue with public transport very kindly made us breakfast bags to take with us. This level of customer service is all too rare nowadays and certainly noteworthy. We will definitely be returning...

The best b&b ever stayed in. Fantastic location, lovely spacious room, everything spotlessly clean. Had our own personal balcony which was lovely in the evenings to sit and watch the world go by with lovely sea views. Matthew and his mum couldn't do enough for you but at the same time were not intrusive. Fantastic breakfast, so much choice and beautifully cooked and presented. Looked forward to our chats in the morning when we came down to breakfast. Cannot praise this establishment highly enough. fellow travellers agreed with us. A little gem of a find overlooking the beach. Will definitely stay again when we are down this way.|Thankyou Matthew,...
