The Sheldon B&B
Latest Reviews
Unfortunately my booking for a 4 night stay (24/12 - 28/12) was cancelled by the owner, due to a case of Covid-19 in the property. Obviously this means that their whole business will be shut down throughout Christmas and the New Year.
It's such a shame when small, independent owners have to take such drastic action to keep everyone safe.
I look forward to staying there in the future.

Lovely, cozy, comfortable b+b. Staff are friendly and there are plenty of covid measures in place. Single room - well equipped, comfortable bed. Great location. Private on site parking! Good value for money. would recommend

Nice B&B with added benefit of off the road parking..Rooms clean and tidy with comfortable bed.
Not so sure about the breakfast in a bag, understood CV issues, but felt that a tray could have been used ,with tea or coffee pot,cup and saucer,glass of orange juice, bowl for cereal, daughter had hot food that arrived Luke warm. Toast arrived in polythene bag ,soon learnt to take out straight away as it became wet in the bag.They state most of the packaging is recyclable,But that’s not an issue if you did as I have suggested.All that is required is to wash up.
Otherwise give them a try.

We stayed here for just one night. What a lovely hotel. Will definitely be my go to place when I come to Eastbourne. I had my elderly parents with me also. The rooms we had were clean and spacious and despite these COVID times and restrictions it was comfortable, clean and homely. Breakfast was safely delivered to our rooms and was fresh and of a really good standard. The best part was the proximity of the hotel to the beach and town. For Mum, who has limited mobility it was an easy walk to a restaurant in the evening and a town visit in the morning. So wonderful being so close to the sea. I enjoyed a sunrise stroll along the prom reliving happy memories of my youth there! We were very happy and impressed by how well they were coping with the restricted service. We met Judy, the owner, who was welcoming and clear about how we could have a safe stay. Highly recommended.

The Free Parking Is number one and the breakfast in a bag was fantastic, better than l thought it would be.
Every thing was good, no negatives.

Lovely place to stay. Excellent location. Staff really friendly and very accommodating. Very clean, good size rooms with plenty of tea, coffee and biscuits etc. Very COVID compliant, felt very safe. Loved the breakfast in a bag, very well thought out with a choice of hot breakfast rolls, cereals, fruit, yoghurt and flapjacks. The added benefit of off road private parking. Would definitely recommend. :D

The double suite room was spacious and perfect for a weekend break even in off season. Breakfast outside the room was a nice touch during COVID-19. However, the only thing resembling a spoon in the room was a stirring stick, and that was just one. Odd that such an oversight was made considering the teas and coffees provided. Spoilt what was otherwise a 5/5 room.

I booked a double room with single occupancy because I hate being crammed in to a small room. I was not disappointed. A lovely large room which was great as I was trying to escape being stuck at home with the Covid outbreak so a real tonic to stay somewhere else, and not fell trapped in a small room.

Arrived to a lovely spacious room spotlessly clean. Great location near shops, restaurants and also near the beach. Breakfast delivered to room because of Covid-19. Very impressed with breakfast but would like times a bit later. Latest slot was 8.30-9am. Free parking is a great bonus for this property. No fridge in room but was provided with an ice bucket full of ice on request to keep drinks cool which was lovely. The green spot lights outside front of building in the dark serve as a great landmark to find b&b.

We stayed 2 nights in a large double room. For a b&b we were very pleased with room and instructions about our stay. Yes the breakfast was basic (previous reviews) but it clearly described the choices and everything was presented as written. We enjoyed it and the room,bed and cleanliness were very nice. The owners were very friendly and helpful and the husband helped us navigate out of the car park after being slightly hemmed in with other vehicles. We loved Eastbourne and plan to return again and book The Sheldon again. Very quiet and central to the beauty each and nice town.

Stayed one night and loved it, also had free parking. Friendly staff and nice breakfast. Will definitely stay there again. Great location and some great restaurants nearby. Nice walk along the promenade.

We found the hotel mediocre, given the high price. There are Covid restrictions in place which means a replacement breakfast is in place. However this breakfast was awful and left outside the room without a knock to let us know it had arrived. Nothing fresh; milk and orange juice warm. Toast cold. Had to go out for a decent coffee and did not order breakfast on second night of stay.
The welcome was brusque. I accept that there are rules in place but under these circumstances customer service needs acceleration not hostility.
Getting into the car park is tricky. Very narrow entrance. One inch either side of wing mirrors.
The room was ok. Accommodated a double bed and a double sofa bed for the kids. But no fan in the very high temperatures.
I wouldn’t stay again.

Judith and her team were an absolute delight from start to finish. The hotel is perfectly placed on the right side of town. Access to the centre and prom are equidistant. We have fairly particular standards and these were met with aplomb. Will definitely be back again.
