The Devonshire Theatre and the Winter Garden are directly across the road. Nearby landmarks include The Eastbourne Heritage Centre (0.3 km), Wish Tower (0.5 km), and Towner Art Gallery (0.5 km). To reach The Mowbray by road from the A27 or A22, follow signs to Eastbourne seafront, travel along Royal Parade, Marine Parade, and Grand Parade passing the pier on your left. Lascelles Terrace is the 7th turning on the right after the pier. On-street parking is available in Lascelles Terrace and neighboring roads for £3.00 per day until 11:00 the following morning.

Services at The Mowbray

The Mowbray is a 4-star Edwardian guesthouse that offers outstanding guest accommodation. A small fridge is available for guest use. The hotel provides a virtual concierge service for mobile phone users. Digital locks are installed on all doors. A delay in table availability may occur. Salt, pepper, and condiments are provided in individual sachets. Cooked selections are prepared in the kitchen and brought to the table. Other small businesses are nearby, including holiday cottage accommodations, a pub, and two restaurants.

“Moments from the beach and close to Eastbourne's theatres, the Edwardian property has an award-winning breakfast, a point of pride since 2011. The family-run approach and 24/7 honesty bar offer a personal touch, while the terrace lounge provides pre-theatre drinks with a view. I think the convenience of parking and proximity to local attractions make it a practical base for exploring the East Sussex coast.”
