Set just off Rye’s cobbled lanes, this traditional cottage is steps away from historic inns, antique shops, galleries and restaurants. Inside, it’s a comfortable and well-designed base with charming original features. At full occupancy, it might feel a little snug, but you'll likely be spending most of your time out and about anyway. Speaking of which, the local area has so much to offer – Camber Sands’ wide sandy beach is a ten-minute drive away, while lunches at local vineyards, coastal walks, watersports and golf are all within easy reach. For quieter afternoons, Rye Harbour Nature Reserve – around two miles away – provides peaceful estuary paths, bird hides and regular seal sightings.

Home truths
Starter toiletries are provided. However, you will want to stock up on other essentials such as coffee and tea, as these are not included.
Self-check-in is available here. You'll either pick up the keys at a nearby property or use a lockbox on the premises. Your host will confirm instructions before your arrival.
Your host uses a third-party platform called Truvi for ID verification and to manage damage deposits independently from Plum Guide. They'll send you a link to fill out when you book.
At full capacity, the space might feel a little snug. We think it's better suited to families with children, rather than groups of six adults.
Due to the home's central spot, parking is a short walk away, and there could be some street noise throughout your stay.
Given the age of the home, it might not be suitable for individuals with reduced mobility due to uneven surfaces and steep steps.
