Occupying a handsome Victorian villa on the edge of Liverpool’s 200-acre Sefton Park, the Sefton Park Hotel is an oasis of calm in the midst of the city. Once a family home, it’s been lovingly restored and boasts 16 individually styled rooms, a snug bar, a handsome garden and an elegant and light-filled lounge where indulgent Afternoon Teas and their much-loved Sunday Lunch are served. The hotel is also a popular events venue for all kinds of gatherings and celebrations. Stuart Sutcliffe, the Beatles’ original bass player, once lived here too, a connection echoed in the hotel’s quietly curated musical theme.
