The cobbled lanes and half timbered houses form an ideal location for Rye holiday accommodation to be situated. With the redbrick Lamb House (once owned by writer Henry James) and the tower of the Norman St.Mary’s church overlooking the town you’ll be surrounded by Rye’s maritime history. That’s not all! If you are looking for Rye holiday accommodation, you’ll struggle to find anywhere better that could match you up with a variety of independent shops, fabulous eateries and boozy boltholes close by your stay.

During the 14th century, the historic town was associated with the provision of ships (for the service of the Crown), and being involved in smuggling. In fact, the notorious Hawkhurst Gang used its medieval inns The Mermaid Inn and The Olde Bell Inn as a key passage for smuggling and storing goods as they are said to be connected to other by a secret passageway. It’s this beautiful history that brings thousands of tourists to the location every year and makes Rye holiday accommodation one of the most sought after in the area.
