    There was an aroma of dogs in the room initially, which cleared after opening the windows and airing the room for a while. The internet wasn't very good, kept dropping out regularly.

    Easy to find, great food, good selection of beers.

    Very low pressure for the shower was the only negative point.

    We were made to feel welcome and felt very comfortable. The room was nice and warm and clean and the bottled water was very welcome. We had a lovely meal and a good breakfast. All the staff were very good. This was the fourth time we have stayed here and will stay again.

    Nothing the room, stay, and staff were all brilliant.

    The room was lovely and very comfortable. A great sized, comfortable bed with tea/coffee available. The bath was a great added luxury. Kim, our host, was very welcoming, and we had a delicious roast dinner the evening of our stay. Breakfast was great, a fantastic addition to the stay, and again, the ladies looked after us really well. The folder of local information, including walks, was a great help, and we enjoyed a short walk into town.

    The bedroom was a little tired decor wise. There wasn’t much room in the shower which appeared to be in a cupboard! That said, the shower worked well.

    Breakfast was lovely. Location was good, very near to Rye and surrounding amenities. Walks were in information folder although didn’t have time in our short stay to try them out…… next time we will!

    Slightly further out of town that we realised. Not a fan of a rainfall shower over a very deep bath (maybe an age thing)

    My only critism was that there was no draft ale available but the bottled bitter was good.

    We had breakfast and our evening meals at the hotel and the food quality was excellent. The staff were very polite and friendly, ensuring that our stay was excellent. The towels were so soft.

    Better listed as an Inn, than a Hotel, bedrooms a little basic. Food not great, factory made pies, could have been better.

    Friendly staff. The accommodation ticked most of my boxes, comfortable, easy access to Rye Golf Club ( about 10 minutes), good value.

    The balcony was so small you couldn't sit on it. Only a bracket across the double doors really.
