Scene
Seaside, modern hotel with golf course
Once past the Seafield Golf and Spa Hotel's sober and somewhat anonymous facade, a lobby area sets a swish contemporary tone combining smart modern seating with glitzy furnishings and gold-print wallpaper. A candelabra-topped grand piano and polished chrome lamps add to an air of serene flamboyance, while colorful modern prints and an impressive bronze centaur statue bring an artistic vibe to the property. Built in 2007 by Italian architect Francesco Beia, the hotel is split between the rooms of the main building and a separate enclave of house accommodation, nestled among a swathe of coastal parkland, including an 18-hole golf course, set beside miles of secluded beach.
