Family & Special Needs
Family rooms and the Superior Suite with interconnected rooms accommodate families with children safely. The guest house offers gluten-free and other special diet breakfast options. Full accessibility with ground-floor rooms and easy beach access suits guests of all ages.
“Bay Lodge Guest House strikes me as an ideal Eastbourne getaway, given its proximity to the beach and personalized service from the hosts. I particularly appreciate the small touches-beach towels, camping chairs, and even rides to the train station-that elevate the experience. The homemade breakfast, coupled with the restful rooms, clearly reflects a commitment to guest comfort.”
