Leisure

Girls!! No more than 2 mins walk from the Cottage is this wonderful place. It's a Tardis inside and we all agree one of the best we have been to. Vital to plan and book in advance.

Food Scene

What a place. Awesome lunch in a Histroric allegedly haunted Hotel. Grab a drink in the Lounge in what is the largest fireplace we have ever seen. Ideal snug on a cold Winters night. On a summer's day this terrace is a Sun magnet. https://www.ryenews.org.uk/living/sexcentenary-tours-at-the-mermaid

A few hundred yards outside the Cottage and I cant recommend this place enough. Divine! Maurice runs the place like clockwork and it has a fantastic atmosphere. Gavi White wine is lovely and just all the food is amazing. Book a Courtyard table on a Summers day for sure.

A must visit. Go to the top of the Tower and you will quickly see what Rye is all about. You begin to appreciate how Rye was landlocked by the Sea a long time ago. A small donation goes towards the Church upkeep and signing the small donation form means they can claim the charitable tax back. The Church hosts many Rye Jazz festival events which are now growing seriously in popularity every year. Have a quick google of the Rye Jazz Festival.

For non boozy drinks, a trip to Knoops is pretty much a must: Jens Knoops makes unctuous hot chocolate drinks, with melted chocolate buttons, and there are roughly one million variations you can try — they're divvied up by chocolate percentage, among other additions. We got a 64% with sea salt and it was reasonably immense.
