Room 34 is filled to the brim with peace and serenity... which is perhaps why it’s favoured by many of our brides on their wedding day.
From the stairs down to the pewter roll top bath to the calming woodland design details, we love every inch of this special room and we hope you do too.

We’re throwing back to when our lovely and very local @mrs_trufflepig joined us for a day of celebrating Verden at The George. Thank you for capturing the magic and for all your support over the years. 🥰🫶
“What a magical 24 hours in my hometown of Rye! Was so much fun showing my loveliest friends the sights and sounds of Rye on the most gorgeous of spring days. 🌼
We began by a delicious lunch in the sunny courtyard of @thegeorgeinrye Think grilled octopus, new season asparagus, buratta salad and fresh oysters all washed down with my local favorite @gusbourne_wine Blanc de blanc. We followed lunch with a stroll around Church square and a tour of @lambhouse_nt , former home of Henry James, E.F Benson and Rumer Godden, now owned by the @thenational
Then I had the chance to show everyone some of my favorite local boutiques and antique shops including @soapandsalvation and @mccullyandcrane just to name a few. We got our steps in before supper by climbing very steep steps of St Mary’s church to get the most spectacular view of the town all the way out to the sea.
An hour of Yin Yoga with @jojoyogacreative in the beautiful ballroom of the hotel then
Back to my room for a relaxing soak in the tub with some gorgeous @verden.world products.
Then off to a very intimate candlelit dinner with a spectacular table festooned with roses designed by @flowers.in.rye supplied by @tambuziroses
The next morning we visited one of the finest gardens in the country @greatdixterofficial which was in the height of spring bloom gorgeousness.
An unforgettable time, thank you @verden.world and @thegeorgeinrye 💚”
