FANTASTIC stay in this place, and nothing was ever a bother or too much! Carol (and John!) went above and beyond in every way and could not have been better or nicer hosts. Will definitely be back again should I ever be in the area, thanks again!

Carol, John and their lovely dog Blue will make you feel most welcome in their comfortable home. The walk to Congress Theatre is about 25 mins but is straightforward enough and can be taken along the sea front. Would definitely stay here again.

Really lovely house and very friendly/ giving couple. It really felt like a home from home with two people who really cared about our comfort.
They truly went out of their way to make us feel welcome and I would stay there anytime I'm in Eastbourne.
Thank you Carol and John xx

Lovely stay in Eastbourne with Carol and John.
Lovely people who couldn't do any more to make me feel completely comfortable in their home, everything you need for a very comfortable stay.
One downside is it can feel like a long walk to and from the theatre (about 20 minutes) compared to some digs but If like me you prefer to save a bit of money but don't want to skimp on quality Carol and John's is ideal.
31st Aug 2015
Had a lovely stay for a week touring with Oklahoma.
Carol was extremely helpful and friendly and it was an easy walk along the promenade to the theatre.
Would definitely stay again.
20th Apr 2015
