Eastbourne is a great seaside destination for a holiday at Christmas time. The colourful seasonal illuminations along the promenade and pier are bewitching. There’s nothing quite like a Christmas Day stroll by the sea with your family, and the long and level promenade is the perfect place for a photo opportunity. There are lots of restaurants, shops and pubs open throughout the Christmas period. Take a winter walk up on Beachy Head with its panoramic sea views across the English Channel on a clear day, or take a festive trip on a steam train along the Spa Valley Railway. There are many visitor attractions in and around Eastbourne that are open throughout the winter like Fort Fun and Motcombe Indoor Swimming Pool, both of which are popular all-weather attractions for kids. Some of our cottages are equipped with wood-burners and hot tubs to keep you cosy and warm over the colder period. Larger cottages have kitchens suitable for catering for extended families for all those lengthy festive feasts. We also offer a number of romantic boltholes for two to hide away and enjoy an intimate Christmas break in. Some are even pre-decorated with a Christmas tree and tinsel to make your holiday to Eastbourne complete.
