    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!

    It was the most relaxing, peaceful and homely hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The room was a good size not huge but not tiny a good decent sized double bed with really comfy fluffy pillows and quilt. More than enough towels normally you get one towel each we had about three or four which is perfect! A nice functioning radiator to keep you warm at night. The view from our room was beautiful it looked out on a lovely landscape with little rabbits and streams. The room felt so relaxing because it didn’t feel like a hotel the layout made it so easy to feel at home. The staff in the lobby were amazing even when it was busy they were so attentive and made sure we were having a good night and our food was good the beach is about a 10 minute or so drive and there is a little town near by called Rye which is lovely cobble stones and lots of little shops and cafes to pop in to. I can’t say a bad word about this place other than the fact we only got one night we can’t wait to go back for another weekend away.

    The property itself and the surrounding area were beautiful! The rooms were well equipped, clean, spacious, airy and the beds were comfy! Kate was so friendly, informative, kind and helpful. We were 4 friends meeting up to celebrate our 60th birthdays and we couldn't have chosen a better property and location- we visited winchelsea, rye and hastings- wonderful, especially loved the pier!

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.

    Winchelsea is a beautiful small town with many lovely buildings. It looks idyllic. The church is the central focus of the town and is a must to visit. It is a stones throw from Rye and the nature reserve. There is a glorious walk from the house along the Military Canal to the sea and various paths around the Pett level.

    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 🙂

    Everything about the Gem was great. Friendly host, very clean and tidy, peaceful and easy reach of everything in Rye and Winchelsea. We were given a card and a bottle of wine on arrival as it was our wedding anniversary which was lovely as well as unexpected.

    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.

    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.
