Town centre location
The Sunnyside Bed Breakfast is located on Bath Street, just a two minute walk to Lord Street Shopping Boulevard and Southport’s famous promenade, providing an ideal location for tourists visiting Southport. The Guest House is also ideally located for access to Southport Conference Centre and Southport Pier which are literally a two minute walk away.
If you have stayed over in Southport before you will be aware that finding accommodation with off street car parking can be quite a challenge, especially in the town centre. A lot of the big hotels have very limited parking and if you arrive early and are lucky enough to get a space there are usually charges attached.
When you book direct with the Sunnyside, either through this website or by calling reception on 01704 536521, we can provide you with free car parking. If you have a van or a large vehicle you would need to contact us before booking to see if we can make arrangements for you. Free parking is only available for guests who book direct with the bed and breakfast. If you book through a third party website and want to use the on site car park a daily car parking fee will apply.
We are over the moon to announce that Sunnyside Guest House has won not one, but two Gold Awards at the VisitEngland Awards for Excellence 2025, being named both Best B&B in England and the national winner for Ethical, Responsible and Sustainable Tourism.
This year’s awards were delivered in partnership with 21 local tourism competitions across the country. Winners from these regional programmes were automatically put forward for national judging. Out of 1,800 applications received nationwide, just 360 businesses advanced to the national finals. These included hotels, visitor attractions, glamping sites, restaurants, museums, and only a select few B&Bs like ours. To be named a finalist in two categories was an incredible honour. To win Gold in both is truly beyond anything we imagined.
These awards are a recognition not just of the guest experience we offer, but of the values we live by. From our use of local produce to our long term commitment to sustainability and genuine heartfelt hospitality, we aim to create something meaningful and memorable for every guest. We are incredibly proud to represent Southport and the Liverpool City Region on the national stage and deeply thankful to every guest, neighbour, and friend who has supported us on this journey.
When you book through third party websites such as Hotels.com, Booking.com, Trivago, Expedia and Airbnb they take a commission for the booking which is passed onto the customer through higher room rates.
When you book direct with us it removes commissions paid to booking websites and allows us provide you with our best deal. Booking direct means you get free car parking and WIFI which are charged as extras on booking websites.
We are also able to provide our best rates for rooms, breakfast and we are able to offer you are full allocation of available rooms. Some accommodation providers don’t list all of their rooms on the third party site in order to keep commission costs down and to reduce the chance of overbooking.
Taking the middle man out of the equation also reduces the chances of there being any complications with the booking further down the line and prevents guests special requests getting lost along the way.
When you next book a stay away always check the hotels, bed and breakfast or guests house website first or call them. When you book though this website you are safe in the knowledge you are getting the best deal available.
If you are in doubt don’t hesitate to make a reservation over the phone. Call 01704 536521 to make a reservation today.

All of the rooms at the bed and breakfast are smoke free. If there is any evidence of smoking then you will be fined £200 and instantly ejected from the building. If you are a smoker and would like to stay with us please call in advance and we can try to offer you a room on a lower floor so it is easier to get in and out of the building for a cigarette.
We only have one room that dosn’t have its own bathroom within the room. When you go though to our booking facility at the top left hand side of the page the room options will be listed and it will say whether the room has en-suite facilities or not.
Unfortunately we don’t accept pets. If you are looking for accommodation in Southport that does accept pets I will be happy to help. Southport has several pet friendly hotels please call reception on 01704 536521 and I can advise on a few options that may suit your needs.

At the Sunnyside Bed and Breakfast we like to offer our guests good value for money. We can do this by keeping commission costs to a minimum and in turn the customer will benefit from reduced rates. Other benefits of booking direct with the Sunnyside Bed and Breakfast include:
The room was extremely modern and spacious. Our every need was catered for. Antony is a superb concierge. He advised us in local restaurants and even made bookings for us. He provided a map of the area and imparted expert knowledge.
We both ordered full English for breakfast with poached eggs. It was so delicious and well presented, really enjoyed the homemade ketchup!!. The homemade jams were delicious. I enjoyed the marmalade so much the I purchased large jar to bring home!!. All Larrissa asks is that you make a £3 donation in the charity box which they support,what a great idea.
Thankyou for a fabulous stay, will definitely be returning to Southport and the Sunnyside guest house.
The rooms are spotlessly clean and decorated to a really high spec. I have to say my favourite thing about Sunnyside is the yummy cupcakes they leave in your room for your arrival. It’s just a lovely little touch 🙂
Face masks were worn by them both, hand gel readily available. Rooms Covid cleaned to the highest standard. Remote and keys were in clean sealed packets.
We found Sunnyside through a search on Tripadvisor and liked the reviews, the fact that there was on-site parking and free wi-fi was a big plus, not to mention the Included breakfast, and all for a very reasonable price.
