Sunnyside Guest House Named Finalist in the VisitEngland Awards for Excellence 2025!
We are absolutely thrilled and still a little stunned to share that Sunnyside Guest House has been named a finalist in the 2025 VisitEngland Awards for Excellence, the most prestigious accolades in English tourism. Often described as the Oscars of the hospitality industry, these awards celebrate the very best that tourism in England has to offer!
Out of hundreds of outstanding businesses from across the country, we’re incredibly proud to be recognised in two amazing categories:
-
B&B of the Year
-
Ethical, Responsible and Sustainable Tourism
To reach this stage, we had to compete against 21 regional winners, making it an honour just to be standing among the national finalists. The grand awards ceremony will take place on Wednesday, 4 June 2025, at the beautiful Brighton Dome, Corn Exchange, where we’ll find out whether we take home Bronze, Silver, or Gold.
At Sunnyside, we’ve always believed in doing things a little differently. With health, wellbeing, and sustainability at the heart of our approach, our mission is to provide a warm, welcoming, and restorative space where guests can relax and recharge by the coast.
We’re proud to be Green Tourism Gold Award holders, and our commitment to sustainability runs deep. We’re passionate beekeepers, supporting biodiversity right on our doorstep, and we’ve audited our supply chain to ensure we’re working with ethical, local, and responsible partners. We’re also working hard behind the scenes to reach net zero by 2030, making real changes in how we operate day-to-day.
Being named a finalist in these “Oscars” of hospitality is a dream come true, and we couldn’t have done it without the incredible support of our guests, our local community, and our amazing team.
