    Nothing. Only that we couldn't stay longer.

    Rachael was fantastic. We would come back again just for her hosting. The house and the room were charming and very conformable. Breakfast was excellent. Location perfect.

    Rachael is an amazing host. Amazing breakfast served in the kitchen. A real family feel to the house - home from home....although this house from 1520 is a little older than ours!

    Difficult to fault- we had a lovely weekend!

    Location was perfect on Mermaid St- right in the centre just a few minutes from the station. Rachael was the perfect host with plenty of recommendations for us and cooked a lovely breakfast on both mornings we were there. The room we had was huge with tea and coffee making facilities and a good sized bathroom. We also met another couple at breakfast which was lovely too! Highly recommended to stay there if looking for somewhere less formal than a hotel with all the comforts.

    The only thing I didn’t like is that I had to go home!

    Everything about my stay was perfect. The house is beautiful, it was amazing to stay somewhere with so much history and on such a lovely street. My room was gorgeous and cosy, and I loved sitting by the window to do some people watching. Rachael is a fantastic host who has great recommendations about the local area, and made delicious breakfasts and cakes each morning. I also met her little dog who is adorable!!

    Rachael was the perfect host, made us feel right at home. She made us a delicious breakfast each morning and was available for whatever we needed. She gave us many great recommendations for things to do in Rye. The room was simply stunning, and furnished beautifully. As there are only a couple of bedrooms it is very quiet and feels wonderfully secluded. We had the best time and will be back! Thank you Rachael for everything!

    No problems

    Good communication before our stay. Our host was very welcoming. The building has a lot of character and we had the run of the whole place. The room was very large - more like a suite than a room. The location was excellent, within a couple of minutes of the main town.

    Tall people be warned about head-banging risk with the old beams!

    This was outstanding. The House is absolutely beautiful - old world charm with immaculate attention to detail in the decor and aesthetic. It was completely charming and romantic. Rachel was the consummate host - friendly, cooked an incredible breakfast, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay, not just at the House with Two Front Doors but for our trip to Rye in general (suggestions for eating out, walks etc).

    That we had to leave. There really wasn't anything that we didn't like - if I had to find one thing. Our breakfast on the 2nd morning wasn't as great as our first, but it was still great.

    We loved everything... the atmosphere, hospitality, breakfast and unbeatable location. Absolutely everything Rachael has put together in her home has created the most welcoming atmosphere. A home away from home. There couldn't be a more welcoming and friendly host, full of charm and spirit. If you're looking for a boring, straight-laced, and by-the-book (yawn) accommodation - do not stay here. We will definitely be coming back again, and we can't wait for more catch-ups by the fire and long naps in the character-filled bedrooms. Thank you for creating such a haven for us to explore Rye from, Rachael.

    The homemade breakfast in the large kitchen was very good. The big bed was very comfortable but it sloped slightly as the floor of the 400 year old house had quite a slope. Rachel was very welcoming and helpful and the lounge with the log fire was a real treat when reading the newspapers.
