A sixteenth-century coaching inn thoughtfully renovated and creatively reimagined as a luxurious retreat in the centre of Medieval Rye.
ABOUT US
Whether you’re sipping local sparkling wine in the Dragon Bar, sharing our famous wood-roasted steaks with friends in the George Grill, or taking afternoon tea in one of our cosy sitting rooms, unwind and indulge in our wining and dining spaces…
With its abundantly romantic original Georgian ballroom, our historic hotel offers the perfect venue for your wedding day in the heart of rye.
“May is the month of expectation, the month of wishes, the month of hope.”
According to Emily Brontë anyway.. but what would she think of..
- Shanty Sundays, which have returned to Winchelsea. Enjoy local seafood and wines, with live sea shanty music performed by the wonderful Rye Bay Crew.
- Sticky Wickets - we are happy to support our friends at Rye Cricket Club with a donation towards their current fundraising appeal. If you want to support this 270 yo club survive impending cuts & keep this sport alive, please do @playcricketuk
- Trainspotting - we highly recommend a visit to the wonderful Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway (RH&DR). Boasting the world’s most complete collection of one-third full-sized steam locomotives, this unique railway is the perfect way to view the National Nature Reserve which its 13.5-mile track crosses between Hythe and Dungeness. This weekend, they will be holding their steam and diesel gala featuring diesel engines on loan from the Lake District.
- Derek Jarman’s house - a new photography book now offers a rare glimpse of how Jarman lived in his famous house, which is preserved and available to view via limited space tours.
- Summer Cocktails - our brand-new delicious cocktails, especially created to sip in the sun!
- Mark Caffrey, Celebrant - our ‘Checking in with’ blog is now up - have a read to find how the wonderfully cheerful Mark Caffrey, a local wedding and naming celebrant, has perfected the art of creating the best celebration… each and every time. @markcaffreyceremonies_

Steamed in a light green curry & coconut broth.
Just the ticket on these fresh spring days.
We source our seafood from Paul Hodges, who’s based at Rock-a-Nore, Hastings. He has worked for over 30 years in the fishing trade and is certified under the marine stewardship council.
