Hotels in Seaford

Seaford is a low-key Sussex seaside town on the coast between Brighton and Eastbourne, better known to walkers than to holidaymakers. Its main draw is the setting: the town sits right below the Seven Sisters chalk cliffs and the start of the South Downs Way, and Seaford Head gives some of the best coastal walking views on this stretch of England.

The seafront itself is a long, steep shingle beach with a Victorian promenade rather than sand and deckchairs, so be honest: this isn't a lounge-on-the-beach destination. Stay as close to the seafront as possible, since that view and easy access to the clifftop paths are the main reason to base yourself in Seaford at all.
