Enjoyable 3 night stay in a good B&B with car park
The Sheldon public spaces has been nicely decorated with many facilities, which was nice. The room was very spacious and well equipped but the bathroom was small especially the shower unit which was a ‘tight fit.’ Although clean, the bathroom could do with some more TLC. The onsite car park was an asset although it is a very narrow alley between the building and boundary wall to enter and exit. The location is one block from the sea front and very near to Devonshire Park (theatre and international tennis venue). It is also only a short walk from a variety of good restaurants. The staff were very polite and helpful which must be congratulated. The choices for breakfast were also very good with optional free cooked choices. The room’s information booklet was well produced and most helpful.

Work in progress!
Amazing staff, good food and service. Work in progress to redecorate the hotel. Room was very poor. Good bed and clean sheets but too small an en-suite and not clean. New owners working very hard to turn an old fashioned hotel into a place to stay.

Eastbourne out of season
Very friendly and welcoming host. The room was clean as were the bedding and towels. Room needed a bit of minor attention /cosmetic work but this did not detract from overall enjoyment of stay. Slept like a log ! The refreshment facilities were excellent and even offered use of dining room out of hrs for our own use if we needed. Good choice of breakfast ,cooked and cereals etc. The hotel also had a lounge available which added to the overall space for our use. Great location 10mins from railway station and 5 from the beach. we would stay here again !

Amazing staff, nice building, great breakfast. Play area for small children, lounge for grown ups, on-site dog! Close to beach and sights. Only negative is that parking is tricky with a big car, you'll have to squeeze through a 2 x 3 m opening to get into the car park

A really enjoyable stay. Lovely to see the new artwork in the public areas, really brightens it up. Steve and Renée were great hosts without being intrusive. Look forward to visiting again and seeing the next stages of change. Should make a good stay even better!

Brief Visit
Place is still ok under new owners, though some of the onsite artwork would not be to all tastes. Steps up to front door need securing, some are loose.

Another wonderful stay.
This was our first stay under the new ownership and it didn't disappoint. Staff were very welcoming at check-in and throughout our stay. The decor has been updated and Sheldon House now looks far more 'colourful'. I rarely read the guest information, however the folder was inviting and I am glad that I opened it. The information contained within was very engaging and helpful, especially as I established that at some point it was called The Burley Sheldon Hotel. I need to check my husband's ancestory for a connection! Check-in, check-out very easy. Onsite parking was a huge plus. Breakfast choices were very good.
