Two sumptuous bedrooms with wonderful views, king size beds and luxury bed linen will ensure that you wake every morning feeling refreshed and ready to explore the medieval delights of Rye. Both bedrooms have ample storage and hanging space and hairdriers are provided in each bedroom. Both bathrooms have storage for your bathroom needs and complementary Duck Island products to ensure you have what you need when you arrive. One bathroom has a rolltop bath and the other a large walk-in shower. Fluffy towels are provided as are beach towels should you wish to swim in the sea.

There is a brand new fully equipped kitchen with washing machine, drier, dishwasher, fridge freezer, oven and microwave and all the necessary equipment for you to be able to cook if you so wish. Teas, coffee, hot chocolate and milk are provided and a selection of basic condiments for cooking. On your arrival there will be a few homebaked biscuits or flapjacks, a small loaf of bread and fresh butter, honey/jam for breakfast to start your stay.

There is a dining area seating four around an oak dining table, a small library offering a few choice books and traditional board games for you to enjoy during your stay. The sitting room has a very comfortable sofa and two stylish armchairs, a smart TV and luxurious woollen rugs. There is WIFI throughout the cottage.

A private courtyard leads off the sitting room and offers somewhere to relax in a peaceful environment away from the crowds. A lovely oak bench and two additional chairs allows four people to enjoy an aperitif or a simple meal outside in the sunshine.

Our art is inspired by the seaside and many of the furnishings and decorations have been locally sourced.

Look out for little seasonal treats! At Christmas traditional decorations will include a real fir tree. At Easter there will be Spring flowers and small chocolate gifts for you to enjoy. Lavender bags filled with our homegrown lavender scent the wardrobes. During the summer months there are freshly picked flowers from our Sussex garden and a bowl of fruits from our orchard after harvest.

The cottage is ideally situated in the ancient citadel less than one minute's walk from historic Mermaid Street, the High Street, and less than five minutes walk from the station.

Guests use the entire cottage. We will be there to greet you personally and hand over the keys when you arrive. However if you wish to self check-in we do have a keysafe. We can be contacted by telephone during your stay.

The cottage is an elegant retreat for couples and unfortunately children under the age of 12 are not permitted. Pets are not allowed.

Very cute and cozy cottage for a girls weekend! The private outdoor space was great and the kitchen well equipped. Generous sized bedrooms with plenty of natural light and fresh bright towels and bedding. Easy check in and great recommendations and communication from our host. Great base to explore Rye and surrounding area or relax and enjoy some down time inside with books, games and TV.

We (myself, my partner, and my parents) had a delightful stay in this gem of a holiday property in the middle of Rye. Every part of the property had been really well thought through and it was beautifully decorated, well equipped and exceptionally comfortable. Our host Andrea was very helpful at all stages and provided lots of useful information that helped make our stay even better. We wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for a stay in beautifulRye! We hope to return ourselves one day.

The cottage was clean and tidy, furnished to a high standard and was very comfortable and well equipped. The only thing missing was a shaver socket for our electric toothbrush.We managed the parking by using a nearby car park at £5 for 24 hours.We thought that Rye was a wonderful place with many more attractions in the surrounding area.
