About this business

A well-maintained freehold guest house within a short walk of the Brighton seafront. The property offers nine en-suite letting rooms across three floors, plus a self-contained two bedroom owner's flat on the lower ground floor. The business trades year round with a summer peak and a steady midweek business trade. Around half of bookings come directly through the guest house's own website, with the remainder through booking platforms. Breakfast is served in a ground floor dining room. Two part-time housekeepers are employed and the owners handle reception and breakfast service.
