Just spent 4 night's here and will definitely stay again if in the area. Our hosts Audrey and Wolfgang were extremely friendly and professional, as was their assistant Eva. Each morning over a beautiful breakfast they would pause and chat. Genuinely interested in our travels and stories rather than just going through the motions. Situated right opposite Fort Redoubt it... More

Holidays in Basset's house was a very good decision. Very friendly and helpful hosts – for Audrey and Wolfgang, nothing is too much when you need help or advise. brilliant breakfast – choose everyday new whatever you wish with fresh cut fruits. Excellent location, very close to the sea; a little street goes directly to the sea. We had room... More

Having just retired from running our own guest house, we went for a three night stay at Bassets House. We were in room 9 at the top of the house, with a sea view. After a busy summer, it was a real tonic for us to be in a comfortable environment and to be able to gaze out over the... More

We stayed at this B&B for 3 nights recently and were so delighted with it! The house is immaculate from when you walk through the door and the room was spotless. We stayed in room 7, where we had views overlooking the sea, such a large room with everything a person would need. The bathroom was so clean and tidy... More

We have been there twice in the last 2 years and we find that the room and bathroom is always clean and tidy, bed is really comfortable, owners and house maid are really friendly. We always have a great time when we stay there.

We booked two nights at the last minute and were delighted that we booked at this B&B. The twin room (Number 3) was on the first floor looking out of the back of the property and was very clean and well laid out. We particularly liked having two chairs so we could sit down in chairs instead of having to... More

On the spur of the moment we decided to have a weekend break in Eastbourne. After trawling through so many so-so hotels on the net we hit upon Basset's House quite by accident. Sometimes accidents can definitely be lucky ones! We stayed three nights in room 4. Right on the front and the road wasn't too noisy for us. As... More

After reading the positive reviews we decided to stay here for one night and can happily say that they were right. The rooms were lovely, especially no.7 which is huge and has a great sea view, the only downside being the road is quite noisy so we had to shut the windows on a hot, stuffy night. The B&B owners...
