Royal Parade, Eastbourne

A rare and outstanding opportunity to acquire a well-established, award-winning seafront guest house in one of East Sussex's most sought-after coastal locations. Occupying a prime position on Royal Parade directly opposite Pavilion Gardens, Breakers Guest House has operated successfully since the 1950s, with the current owners spending the past 12 years building it into a highly regarded, multi award-winning business with an excellent reputation and a strong, loyal returning guest base.

The Business
Currently trading from April to October only, the business offers a proven and healthy income stream whilst providing complete flexibility during the winter months - making it an ideal lifestyle business for an owner-operator couple who could comfortably run it together without additional staff. There is meaningful scope to grow revenues further by extending the trading season, increasing guest capacity using the additional lower ground floor ensuite bedroom, or exploring conversion of the lower ground floor into a self-contained letting unit, subject to necessary permissions. Established booking systems, strong online reviews, and a supportive local B&B community all add further value to this ready-to-trade opportunity.

The Property
Extending to approximately 3,351 sq ft across four floors, the property provides seven beautifully appointed ensuite guest bedrooms alongside generous self-contained owner accommodation - all within a magnificently restored late Victorian villa. The property was comprehensively refurbished in 2012/13 with investment across every aspect of the building, and is presented in excellent condition throughout, fully operational and ready to trade immediately. Guest bedrooms are individually styled to a high standard, all with ensuite facilities, heated towel rails, TV points, and made-to-measure blackout curtains. The principal suite enjoys a large private sea-facing balcony with stunning views across Pavilion Gardens, whilst a second balcony on the second floor offers equally impressive coastal scenery. Owner accommodation includes two double bedrooms, a private sitting room, kitchen, home office, and utility room - providing a genuinely comfortable and spacious private living space entirely separate from the guest areas.

Outside & Location
The professionally landscaped walled courtyard garden, laid with York stone paving and featuring an ornamental goldfish pond, year-round planting, and a substantial double tandem garage with electric roller door, completes this exceptional package. Breakers sits directly opposite Pavilion Gardens on Royal Parade, moments from the beach and 1.5 miles from Eastbourne station with London Victoria services in approximately 90 minutes. Eastbourne's annual pre-Wimbledon tennis tournament and hugely popular four-day Airshow generate significant visitor demand, whilst Beachy Head and the South Downs National Park just 3.8 miles away ensure a year-round draw for guests.
