“Friendly, stylish hub in the centre of charming Seaview, popular with locals. Boasting a busy terrace, two restaurants and a mix contemporary or chintzy bedrooms in various sizes, some with views. Great base for sailing or local exploring, 50 yards from the sea.”

Hotel review

Those with a penchant for breezy, timeless seaside resorts, will love sailing-mad Seaview, and this friendly hotel, which also acts as the central pub. As well as the bar, there are two restaurants; one airy and contemporary, the other more formal. Both serve the menu of up-and-coming chef Graham Walker. Bedrooms have been refurbished, with seven Seaview Modern luxury rooms by in-vogue London designers, Keech Green.

The Seaview

"The hotel's best feature, though, is its friendly staff who, without exception, were lovely to our boys and saw to the needs of other families gathering to play cards or to don wellies for walks with an air of unruffled calm."
