It is about 2 kilometers from the city center of Brighton. The traffic is very convenient. No extra bed is allowed, and children can be taken. The room is not big, but the design is very distinctive, with artistic style. The sea view room has a balcony, and the sea and harbor are outside, which is very nice. Downstairs is the Food City, let’s have a good meal.

The Wellington at Seaford is one of the friendliest, most welcoming places we have stayed and is amazing value for money. The owners, Simon and Nina, are a lovely couple and have clearly put heart and soul (and money!) into upgrading the facilities since they took ownership, which I gather unfortunately coincided with the outbreak of Covid. The welcome on arrival could not have been warmer and we were shown to our room by Nina, one of the owners. The spacious room was immaculately clean and the bed was super comfortable and mercifully squeak-free, in both respects unlike the P**mier Inn at Newhaven where we made the mistake of staying on the inward leg of our trip to the UK from France. Our room, just like the entire inn, has been newly double glazed with stylish sash windows, so there was virtually no noise at all from what light traffic that passed by outside and we enjoyed our first night of unbroken sleep in several days. The room was equipped with a large TV (Freeview), tea and coffee facilities and WiFi. Downstairs the pub and restaurant are equally welcoming and cosy, and after a very pleasant, bracing walk along the seafront (the promenade is just a couple of minutes down the road from The Wellington) we ate an early evening meal which was prepared by Simon, Nina's husband. The menu was excellent, with something for all tastes and plenty of vegetarian options, though we plumped for real sausage and mash! A properly tasty, delicious treat, washed down with a chilled bottle of Pinot Grigio and followed by a scrumptious chocolate fudge cake. We had breakfast in the restaurant next morning - full English for him and continental for her - which was prepared and served by Simon. This was without a doubt the best English breakfast I can ever remember, and it knocked the offering that we previously had at the Newhaven inn into a cocked hat; it was not some tepid, serve yourself buffet, but the real deal, generous and freshly prepared to order. And it costs less, too! There is free on-street parking outside the Wellington - arriving late afternoon on the Tuesday we were able to park just a few yards from the main entrance. After breakfast on Wednesday we packed our bags, made our farewells and had a short, ten-minute drive to Newhaven ferry terminal for our crossing back home to France. In short, we thoroughly recommend The Wellington to anyone staying in the area, whether for a stay or for a meal. If they'll have us, we'll definitely book again if we use the same ferry crossing in future.
