Description
To be sold via online auction - powered by The Auction Group
The Sea Crest enjoys one of Morecambe’s most enviable positions—set just a few steps from the sweeping promenade and perfectly placed to benefit from the transformational arrival of Eden Project Morecambe. With the bay unfolding in front of it and the town’s amenities a short stroll away, the former hotel sits at the heart of a coastal destination that is rapidly rising in national profile.
The former hotel itself was a well‑established and warmly regarded guest house offering a mix of single, double and family rooms known for its friendly atmosphere and dependable hospitality all year round for business travellers or tourists! Its generous scale, thirty one en‑suite bedrooms and welcoming communal spaces make it perfectly suited to both traditional hotel operation and more contemporary reimagining. Guests could enjoy the ease of being moments from the promenade, theatres, cafés, parks and transport links, while also using the hotel as a base to explore the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales and historic Lancaster.
There is separate living accommodation for the owner to the basement of the property.
As Morecambe evolves into a vibrant coastal hub shaped by sustainability, culture and tourism, The Sea Crest stands as a rare opportunity: a substantial property close to the sea with deep roots in the town and an exceptional future ahead of it.
Morecambe has long been loved for its wide sandy beaches, level seafront walks and uninterrupted views across the water to the Lakeland fells. In recent years, the town has begun an exciting new chapter, with significant investment, a growing cultural scene and the forthcoming Eden Project set to establish Morecambe as one of the UK’s most compelling year‑round visitor locations. The Sea Crest is ideally positioned to capture this surge in demand, offering guests immediate access to the waterfront while remaining within easy reach of the new Eden site.

By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
