Harbour Retreat
Harbour Retreat is in Rye, about a five minute walk from the town centre. It's a Victorian house. It's detached, so you have it to yourselves.
It sleeps twelve, so it's a big one. Six bedrooms, four bathrooms. It's got a 4 Star rating. It was fully renovated a few years ago so everything works and is in good order. It's been done up well, not cheaply.
There are two living rooms. One has the woodburning stove and is a bit cosier, the other is a larger space for everyone to be together. We set it up so groups can spread out.
The garden at the back is a courtyard. It’s paved and private. Good spot for a morning coffee or a drink in the evening.
You can walk into Rye in a few minutes. It's an old town with cobbled streets. Lots of independent shops, good pubs that serve food, restaurants, cafes. You don't really need a car for day-to-day things. The nearest shop and a pub are about 50 yards away.
From the house, you can walk out to Rye Harbour Nature Reserve. It’s flat walking, good for birdwatching. The actual beach at Rye Harbour is shingle. For a sandy beach, you drive to Camber Sands. That's about a ten minute drive, maybe five miles.
Hastings is about 20 minutes by car. The old town there is interesting, and you've got the pier. Battle Abbey is about half an hour away. For a vineyard, Chapel Down is in Tenterden, which is roughly a 25 minute drive.
Facilities wise: there's WiFi, a washing machine, a dishwasher, parking for a couple of cars, bedding and towels are included. We've got a stairgate too. You can bring up to two well-behaved dogs.
If you're planning things to do, these sites are useful: National Trust South East and Rye Harbour Nature Reserve.
