Located in the peaceful seaside town of Bexhill, the award-winning Cooden Beach Hotel knows how to spoil guests with its choice of dining rooms as well as the delicious variety of dishes. For a contemporary menu, the hotel's Brasserie on the Beach is perfect. This time of year, the glass-walled restaurant provides a moody backdrop with dramatic winter skies stretching out to sea. Particular menu highlights include the Surf and Turf, with a 6oz fillet steak and lobster tail, or try the Hot Steak Stone where you cook your own fillet steak on a hot lava rock! The chef's catch of the day is a good choice too and vegans and veggies have plenty of options, including a tasty Vietnamese Veggie Curry. Whatever you go for, save room for dessert. The caramelised pear and ginger upside-down cake with clotted cream is a real crowd pleaser! The hotel's highly recommended Café Bar is your choice for afternoon tea, sharing platters and light bites. It's also where you'll find the Gin Bar! If you're visiting this quaint seaside spot in the summer, the hotel's terrace is perfect for people watching, cocktails and al fresco dining. And if you need overnight accommodation, the Cooden Beach Hotel has 41 stylish en-suite guest rooms, including interconnecting family rooms. Guests can also use the swimming pool, gym and sauna and book for individual spa treatments. It's not a surprise that this hotel on the south coast is popular with repeat guests and returning diners.

Seasonal highlights to tuck into include the whole baked Tunworth cheese, British charcuterie, house pickles, seasonal chutney and Butcombe beer bread; it makes the perfect sharing platter. And for a main course, consider the baked Cornish sole, shellfish bisque, River Fowey mussels, fennel, samphire and saffron potatoes.
