A comfortable house in a great location. Despite being in the heart of town it's a quiet road with very little traffic.

Top notch location. Quiet street but moments away from everything. Everything you would want to be clean was spotless. In need of a little decorative refresh in places, but overall very comfortable and cosy. Backyard not large but easily big enough for four to sit round the table. Would definitely visit again.

Fabulous cosy cottage, everything we needed was in situ. The location could not have been better, very central to main Rye. As they have indicated the stairs may not be suitable to everyone, but no issue for our family. Lovely touch with Wine, Chocolates and biscuits waiting for us on arrival. Hoping to stay again in the not too distant future. HigRead morehly recommend. Hide

We had a lovely week in this sweet, comfy house with lovely courtyard garden. Well equipped and ideally located in the centre of Rye, but really quite as away from the main roads.

Crown Cottage was the perfect location for enjoying Rye and the countryside around it. The house was well-equipped, comfortable, and pleasantly decorated. Four bouquets of flowers around the house greeted us and were a lovely surprise.

A magical place to spend a wonderful, cosy and happy Christmas, a real home-from-home. So delightful to be left Christmas goodies upon arrival - everything has been thought of. Sad to leave but we'd love to come back...

Thank you for a lovely stay in your beautiful house. We were here for our 16th anniversary and enjoyed our favourite walks in minus temperatures and blue sky sunshine! Thanks for the delicious wine, chocolate, biscuits and milk. Loved the Christmas decorations.
