    The breakfast was amazing, really fresh and varied and generous. The view from the room was lovely, over the meadows or really old buildings. I loved the decor in the breakfast room and communal areas.

    All of the staff were welcoming and a pleasure to deal with. Alex, in particular, went above and beyond to help my father and I when we wanted to stay an extra night in Rye.
