Make It Special

A Weekend to Remember

We chose The Cumberland Hotel for our first Ladies Weekend back in 2014 and received so much positive feedback; we were so happy to secure a competitive rate to return in 2026.

If you haven't been, it's a beautiful 4-star hotel with an art deco style, a short stroll to the town centre. Set on Overcliff Drive, we have a limited number of sea-view rooms, as well as family, dog-friendly, and accessible rooms available.

Guests can enjoy a discount at the spa next door, and the hotel has a restaurant serving afternoon tea and a beautiful bar offering an extensive cocktail and drinks menu.
