About this property

Luxury apartment for couples set in an historic villa in a prime location

Gresham House is located just a stone's throw from Eastbourne's beachfront, with the pier, a world class yacht marina, the Beacon shopping centre, excellent pubs, restaurants and a variety of beach cafés amongst its nearby attractions.

Hartington Place typifies the new 'urban cool' design wave that is sweeping through this traditional seaside resort.

This newly renovated ground floor holiday apartment is breathtakingly elegant and modern, yet set within an impressive Grade II listed building.

The open plan living space includes a modern fitted kitchen with fridge-freezer, microwave, cooker, etc, a lounge with large flat-screen TV with Freeview, and French doors leading to a private south-facing sun terrace.

There is underfloor heating and some wall-mounted radiators too if evenings turn slightly chilly.

This stunning Eastbourne holiday apartment offers one bedroom – with a super-kingsize bed which can be split to provide two separate single beds.

There is a separate family bathroom which is immaculate, with a large bath and separate walk-in shower.

All bed linen and towels are provided (please bring your own beach / swimming towels), along with little extras such as toilet paper, handwash, cleaning supplies and enough tea, coffee and sugar for welcome drinks.

Gresham House is a Grade II listed building and is a redevelopment of four mansion buildings built in 1864. It has been restored to enhance the building's classic, Regency architecture and as part of this the Regency stucco frontages and decorative internal arch work have been fully refurbished. The building was at one time a home for ex-mariners known as The Royal Alfred Seafarers' Society Home.

Minimum six months let.

Eastbourne Holiday
Lovely flat-clean,we’ll equipped,and in a great location.We appreciated being let in early as we travelled by train.The welcome box of chocalates was a nice thought.The only negative thing was that on the Thursday night (27th) we had music all night long from an upper flat which kept waking us up.

Hartington Place
Property was in an excellent position, easy to travel to on buses and perfect for shops. We enjoyed our holiday and managed to avoid the rain, but not the wind! Thank you to the office, who were helpful and efficient.

Good Place for A Few Nights in Eastbourne
Nice flat with a small outdoor patio, looks like the pictures, very functional and close to the beach. Check in is a bit odd if you don't have a car as the key pick up is a mile or so away but this wasn't a major issue for us. Had a small hiccup with some painters but the manager fixed it for us quickly.

Spend another great week in Gresham House, App. No2. Were once again lucky with the weather. Breezy, sometimes stormy, but sunny. We love our outdoor breakfasts and home cookings which make our stay always so relaxing. Will be back soon! Warm regards, Thomas & Anette

A fabulous adventure in Sussex
We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 week stay in this lovely property in Eastbourne. Very high marks for location, cleanliness, and quiet environment. Our bed was incredibly comfortable and we loved the shower. We were 1/2 block from the seaside and just 10 minutes from the rail/coach stations to travel to cliffside hiking trails on the South Downs Way and charming villages, so no car is needed. We shopped for our cook at home meals at M and S. We give this property our highest recommendation!
