Newest Review: ... marina so you can't get to see her. The man in the gift shop told me that she usually comes into the sea off Eastbourne on a Sunday morning to practice manoeuvres. Unfortunately the week we were there the crew had all been instructed to attend church instead! As those of you who know anything about me can imagine, I was seriously disappointed! All the slot machines etc that you would expect at a seaside resort are all together on the long pier so you don't get the tatty area in town which is often associated with this type of entertainment, but you do still get the fun of the slot machines if you like that sort of thing. Eastbourne itse... more

Premium Review Eastbourne in general: Not just for the crumblies! (767 words)

I have always understood Eastbourne to be 'God's waiting room', but after taking a holiday there a few years ago I now realise that this is simply not true. I can vaguely remember going there as a child and my parents having to tell me to be quiet and not bounce my ball along the sea front because of all these elderly people sitting in deckchairs frowning at us, so I was expecting pretty much the same atmosphere. I again went with my parents, on an organised coach trip and stayed at a lovely hotel just off the sea front. The average age in Eastbourne is higher than elsewhere but it isn't a place just for the crumblies by any means. It ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Eastbourne in general: Pevensey Road, Eastbourne East Sussex (168 words)

Eastbourne is a nice place, as long as you don`t live in Pevensey Road. Locally it is known as Bedsit Land, Little Albania, Little Liverpool (no offence), Reject City and Drug Street. If you live in Pevensey Road there are certain things you find it difficult to do; 1) Find a job 2) Park your car 3) Feel safe at night 4) Find a policeman (well that`s Eastbourne in general) 5) Avoid dirty syringes from being thrown into your garden 6) Get re-housed by council even if you are pregnant, married, already have a child, suffer with neighbour abuse and scared for your life. We have a residents association who try their best to stop the ...  Read the complete review
