Comfortable and good location
The bedroom was spacious and clean. On the downside the bathroom was tired looking and the shower control not working so very hot water. Could not use.

My friend and I stayed here as Rye was too expensive. Check is a strict 3pm doors shut.
The accommodation was ok. Felt a bit tired but good value for money with a breakfast.
Beds and linen comfortable and clean - bathroom a bit tired and shower had no pressure. Overall no complaints for the price of the room.
Grounds need a bit of attention.
