Beach House Hotel, 15 Church Street, Dunbar

The Beach House Hotel, located at 15 Church Street in Dunbar, is an early 19th-century building featuring two storeys, a basement, and an attic. Originally designed in a T-plan with three bays, it was extended by a taller pavilion block to the south around 1825. The exterior is rendered with droved ashlar and has a piended slate roof with varying heights and slated gable dormers. The windows are 3 x 4 paned sashes.

The west front retains its original three-bay design, highlighted by a raised cill course at the first floor. A canted pilastered porch with side windows leads to tripartite panelled doors (outer and vestibule) topped with horizontally paned fanlights, and there is a parapet above. The windows are architraved with fielded panels above the first-floor sashes. One ground floor window on the north side has been altered to become French windows. The extension block on the north side has one bay, featuring plain margined windows and a projecting string course below the first floor.

The north front includes a raised band course below a full-height arched recess, which houses a tripartite window with a 12-paned sash at the first floor and a single window above. The rear east front has a flat-roofed two-storey extension that adjoins the ground floor and basement of the house, added by 1907.

Inside, the hotel features a geometric tiled floor in the porch and hall, with Greek key plasterwork and architraved doors. Decorative stained glass flanks the hall entrance, and there is a stone staircase with a decorative cast-iron balustrade and timber rail. The windows are shuttered, and the doors are architraved. The building has undergone alterations due to the extensions.
