Local tip
The Seaview sits just yards from the shore, so a coastal walk pairs naturally with a meal or drink at the venue.

The Seaview East Preston is a renovated pub-hotel beside the Sussex coast, combining a modern bar and restaurant with five boutique bedrooms. Set on Sea Road in the village of East Preston, the venue is positioned just yards from the shore, making it suitable for coastal meals, relaxed drinks and short stays by the sea.

The restaurant focuses on homemade food shaped by local produce and seasonal availability. Its menu brings together tapas-inspired grazing plates and larger dishes, giving diners the choice of sharing several smaller plates or settling in for a more substantial meal. Local wines form part of the drinks selection, alongside the broader choice available from the bar.

Inside, The Seaview presents a contemporary version of the traditional pub, with refurbished restaurant and bar areas and a welcoming atmosphere for friends and families. The setting suits an informal meal, an evening drink or a slower coastal break. Brighton visitors looking to explore further along the Sussex coast can use East Preston as a quieter base near the shoreline.

The venue also caters for celebrations and private dining, including birthdays, weddings and other gatherings. Bespoke menus and styling are available for groups ranging from 14 to 150 people, with a private dining room for occasions that need a dedicated space. Seasonal events, live music and other entertainment form part of the wider programme, while the five boutique rooms provide a convenient option for guests making the visit into an overnight stay.
