Lovely location very near Rye nature reserve (the far end), very welcoming and clean. Gorgeous garden, peaceful and plenty to eat for breakfast! Janette was very quick to respond to queries and we enjoyed some great chats about gardening and the state of British education 🤣

Helpful host, good communication. Lovely accommodation, clean and well presented. We would recommend and wouldn't hesitate to return. Good value. There is a pub within a 5 minute walk with great food.

The location was close to the centre of Rye. The bedroom was super. The breakfast was great
The sand between your toes. Sky and beach as far as your eyes can see. Wonderful food made with love. Deeply comfortable beds in beautifully thought out bedrooms. Daily yoga and wellness classes.

Quality interiors and location over the road from the beach.
This hideaway is located in the centre of Rye and offers well-designed rooms, local wines and a restaurant menu infused with Mediterranean zest.

A sumptuous hotel. Rabbit warrens and stairs all over. Room was comfy and quiet. Quite pricey but guess that’s the location. Fabulous food and informal staff
Excellent restaurant
Breakfast was amazing due to the selection of fresh fruits raspberries strawberries blackberries melon pineapple blueberries pomegranate prunes cereal pastries toast yogurt smoked fish plus full English with black pudding backed beans and crapes
Our evening meal was also great value for money Evan though they forgot to deliver the side salad we requested

The question as put means our answer is rather misleading.
The question as put means our answer is rather misleading. We did not have time to explore Winchelsea as we would have liked, but spent much of our time in Rye, a quarter-hour drive away and with enough to keep us busy ind interested for two days. We only scratched the surface of the possibilities of the wider area. In Rye, park as soon as you can in any of the car-parks at the foot of the hill and walk. There is masses to see, but the one-way system within the town can be a nightmare to the unwary.

Winchelsea beach is a remote and beautiful coastline, perfect for November stormy weather. 20 mins away from Rye nature reserve and Petts Level cliffs.
This is not in Winchelsea itself, but Winchelsea beach.

Beautiful, peaceful, historic town with strong local community feel, excellent to combine with exploring the rest of the area (Rye, Dungeness etc). Lovely place to spend a few hours walking around, enjoying the view over the surrounding countryside.
Schedule visit with a date the cellar tours are on- we only found out about these after we visited!

Brilliant area, the pebble beach was beautiful, quiet area, perfect for relaxing and enjoing time with the family. We went to camber sands which was gorgeous. Hastings which isnt far, had some nice restuarants- halal and vegetarian.

Would use again .
Our hosts were friendly and welcoming. We had a bedroom, bathroom and living room with a TV to our selves. The bed was comfortable and our bedroom was tastefully decorated. Breakfast was the continental variety, with plenty of fruit and croissants. The rooms were scrupulously clean. The Gem made a great place to set up base and explore. We visited Rye, the nature reserve and Winchelsea.
The bar was lovely, but your not sleeping in the bar! The rooms are basic, and having stayed in a nearby hotel in Rye, they are poor. I don’t think anyone would want to sleep in a room with brick walls and furniture that was installed in the 1970,s. I think The hotel inspector should take a visit. You can stay in a the Hythe Imperial for much less which has luxury rooms.
Caroline was extremely welcoming and helpful, even before we arrived
The apartment was placed in a beautiful setting, very spacious and lovely decor. There was a large, garden and wood fired hot tub.
Location was great for visiting Rye and Hastings and Winchelsea beach was only a few minutes drive.
Would highly recommend and look forward to staying again.
Excellent breakfast, spacious room, lots of teas and snacks in the room which was a bonus, lots of character to the property. Kate was very friendly and helpful. It's a very rural, quiet location out in the sticks but we had bikes so was a 20-30 minute cycle to get into Rye and is close to Winchelsea.
The cottage is lovely. Pretty from the outside. Winchelsea is stunning.
The photos do not do the place justice.
Very spacious, well equipped and comfortable.
The beds were comfy. Bathroom fine.
Garden looked lovely, would be great in the summer.
Definitely recommend 🙂
Caravan was clean, spacious and equipped with everything we needed. We didn’t use any of the park facilities, but there was a fish and chip shop and a Co-Op next to the entrance. Pebbly beach nearby and Camber Sands only 20mins away.
Quaint little cottage but with all mod cons. Winchelsea Town is just picture perfect. It has a very good village shop and pub literally just steps away. We had a lovely few days. Plenty to see in the area. Highly recommend it.
The room was comfortable. We loved the balcony in Room 17 and the telescope that was provided for us to look at the wildlife.
The staff were very friendly, especially the young lady who welcomed us to the hotel at Reception.
Private lounge facility with the bedroom - like a suite, meant very comfortable. Substantial breakfast, all delicious. Friendly host and off road parking. Quiet with good views, but Winchelsea within walking distance.
