The apartments:
The apartments sit on a private quayside with a southerly outlook to Romney Marsh.
Rye's cobbled streets are barely 5 minutes walk. Winchelsea, Battle, Bodium, Canterbury, the Channel Tunnel and the Kent countryside are within easy reach.
The golf links at Camber are well known and the adjacent Sands are glorious. Other activities include sailing, windsurfing, fishing and walking, with a nature reserve at Rye Harbour. Cycling is an excellent way of exploring Romney marsh, using the tangle of narrow lanes, where you can discover Norman churches and 15th Century smugglers pubs.
“This precious stone set in the silver sea,
This beloved plot, this earth, this realm,
This England …..”
Shakespeare, Richard II
We spent two fantastic weeks here.
This flat is cosy, comfortable and an ideal place to explore some beautiful gardens and National Trust properties from.
We’ll recommend it to all our friends

The local area:
We've really enjoyed this holiday. To see a river instead of a road, a boat instead of a car is one of the best things about it. We watched a heron on the far bank last night and a fox on this side tonight. Rye is lovely, plenty of choice for eating out. The old streets and houses take you back in time. The accommodation is first class, very clean and comfortable.

Egrets, Heron, Hundreds of Lapwings, all from the window.
Maureen & David Whittle W/Sx 4 – 3 – 05
Hit the jackpot for weather, nearly 100% sunshine all week. Apartment comfy & clean & no problems. Balcony a great asset in this lovely weather.
Do hire the headphones from the Tourist office on the Strand, it makes a walk around Rye very interesting. Rye Harbour good for watching boats come in & out when the tide is in (it mostly seems to be out!!) Copper Kettle not good value.
Local activities:
Glorious weather, comfortable accommodation – overall an excellent week. Don’t leave Rye without visiting the Rye Treasury of Mechanical Music, church tower is worth a visit for the view. The Story of Rye in the Heritage Centre also very good. The Union Inn East St has a varied menu at reasonable prices and good sized portions. If you enjoy watching birds Pett Level has been very good this week.
Joyce & Brian Stannard Ipswich, Suffolk 4/9/99 – 11/9/99
Flat very warm, cosy and comfy.
Rye delightful & good bird-watching from Rye Harbour & Winchelsea Beach. A relaxing holiday with fine blend of heritage and nature. We enjoyed the peace and tranquillity so much that this is the only time we have ever wanted to return to a holiday destination!!
