“Nectar returns from the sea. The scallop’s shell resembling a blazing sun...”
The Rye Bay Scallop Week returns from Saturday 17 to Sunday 25 February and buoy oh buoy are we excited.
Rye’s fishing fleet, moored almost two miles from the sea, will be delivering the freshest, juiciest scallops to restaurants in and around Rye.
This celebration of the scallop season can make our lovely town much busier than normal, so we always recommend booking a table at The Grill and/or a room at our Inn.
There is an auspicious air to this month’s newsletter, as on February 10th we’re entering the Year of the Dragon..
..to celebrate we have a gift to give, so keep your eyes peeled! 🎁👀
According to the Chinese zodiac, this year’s Wood Dragon promises growth and progress when backed up by hard work.
So, why not set out on the historic 1066 (and all that) Country Walk? @1066country - Stretching between Rye and Pevensey Castle, the route is actually 31 miles long, but is helpfully broken into six easy sections, each of which takes 3-4 hours. - Passing through countryside that witnessed the Norman Conquest and its historic battlefields, much of the walk traverses the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, ancient towns and villages and is punctuated by 10 wooden, newly commissioned sculptures by local artist Keith Petitt.
And then reward yourself with some delicious scallops in our restaurant for the upcoming Rye Bay Scallop Week! @ryesussex
We also covered our upcoming Balance & Bliss Yoga retreat with @jojoyogacreative which is now SOLD OUT and had a Check-In with local shop owners @rae_lifestyle_

Thank you @houseandgardenuk for capturing The George so beautifully - we had to share it 💞
“Right on Rye’s high street, 16th Century former coaching inn @thegeorgeinrye is the perfect base from which to explore this quaint medieval coastal town on foot. Seventeen years after first working with @Retrouvius on the design … the owners called upon them again to apply their gentle stroke and thrifty know-how for reclamation and architectural salvage. The rooms, pub area and all-day brasserie now have a fresh look, and it’s better than ever.” . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #houseandgarden #houseandgardenuk #thegeorgeinrye #retrouvius #hoteldesign #rye #coastaltown #pub #reclamation #brasserie #alldayeating #hotelsuk ...
