Summerfields House

Secure parking for my motorcycle was important for me which was a nice thing to have for peace of mind ,the room "seaside " looked over a woods and a snippet of the sea.One could walk in the woods ,lot,s of wild life , and history. The bed was comfy and the sheets were clean.Breakfast was served with a smile every morning ,selection of tea,s or coffee. Ian drove me to the centre of Hastings so i could get some rolly fudge as the centre was packed and there were no motorcycle spaces leftthank you. Fiona is a warm hearted person who is lovley to talk too and has always a open ear thank you also all my best wishes.

We are staying at Summerfields House as I write. It is a lovely summer’s day and it is delightful to be in such a comfortable room with dual aspect windows and a sea view. We arrived a few days ago and were welcomed very warmly by Ian and Fiona. They are very kind people who you feel you could talk to for hours. Ian helped us to our room which has a name rather than a number, “Seaside”. We were delighted with the layout, with a king size bed, a daybed, a dressing table and a wardrobe with a fridge inside - oh, and a small smart-TV. The room looked clean and smelt fresh and the en-suite bathroom was just as good. The power shower is fantastic! Our cooked breakfast in the morning was possibly the best I’ve had - don’t get me wrong, it isn’t hard to make a full-English good, but the sausages, in particular, were so much nicer than the many other places I have stayed. The house is on a drive, away from the road and is very private with gates so there is plenty of privacy, and we had some lovely sunshine to enjoy in the magnificent garden. Today, we went through the woods, past the walled garden, into town and down to the beach. We got to the town centre very quickly. I’m not sure it was as fast as walking along the road but we stopped at the museum, two doors away, when we went that way. We did quite a lot of walking, which we aren’t used to, so with tired legs we went next door for our evening meal to the recently refurbished “Bar 85” where we had some drinks and bites. They have happy hour between 5 and 7, which is handy for us. Today is our last day here. I would very much recommend Summerfields House to anyone looking for a B&B in Hastings and hope you enjoy your stay as much as we are.

Came by train from London for a quiet city break by the sea. Highly recommended. Very welcoming, clean and comfortable. Near a main road , convenient for buses , yet very peaceful. Weather not quite as expected , but that was out of everyone's control... Thank you to our hosts, Ian and his Chinese wife

Very clean, very friendly and quiet with good parking. Green, off road location. Very good breakfast. Would recommend.

I was very pleased with my stay at Summerfields. Fiona and Ian were very helpful and friendly hosts. My room (Roses) was lovely. It was great to have a fan and mini-fridge available during the hot weather. Although the en suite is small, the shower is excellent - very powerful! The breakfast was very nice and they accommodated my request for an earlier breakfast each day, without any issue. The house is in a secure area, with parking available. The bed was comfortable and there was a lovely view over the rear garden. The location is fine for going into Hastings, although it's about a 15-minute uphill walk from the centre of town to get back! There are buses, however, so this isn't a major issue. It is also very close to the Summerfields Leisure Centre. I would have no hesitation in recommending Summerfields, nor staying there again.

Absolutely lovely location although you need to be a walker to climb that hill from the front every night! Nice and quiet and lovely gardens too. The owners are lovely people, made us feel very welcome. The breakfast each morning was delicious and very well cooked.The room we stayed in wasn't en-suite but across from the bedroom so not a problem although I think the other rooms are en-suite. The only 2 things I would say that stopped me from giving 5 stars were the shower, it was very old fashioned and loud, and the bed was very hard so after a long day of walking miles, it wasn't the most comfortable place to relax and have a good sleep. I think a decent mattress topper would make a huge difference. Aside from these 2 small things, I would thoroughly recommend this as a great place to stay and we would go back again.
