The George in Rye sits in a commanding position right on the High Street in the heart of Rye. The individually designed rooms are spread across the main building and converted outbuildings - some have free-standing baths, others huge walk-in showers and some of the larger rooms have both, all feature soothing sulphate-free Ren bath and body products. A soft palette of contrasting colours with an eclectic mix of vintage finds, design pieces and antiques gives a homely feel to the interiors. Summer months are spent wandering around Rye with its pretty houses, charming independent shops and lovely restaurants followed by drinks in the sun-filled courtyard. On cooler evenings snuggle up in one of the sitting rooms before heading to the bar for a drink before dinner in the restaurant. Expect fish of the day, moules marinieres and traditional fish and chips to be on the menu with other British favourites.
In the centre of Rye, cobbled lanes like Mermaid Street are lined with medieval, half-timbered houses; the redbrick Lamb House was once owned by writer Henry James. The 14th-century Ypres Tower, which once formed part of Rye’s defences, is now Rye Castle Museum, with displays on local history. Only an hour from London Rye is a great place to come for a midweek break to escape the noise of the city and The George in Rye is the perfect place to stay.

This charming 16th-century inn in the Cinque Port town of Rye is a real delight. Inside, there's an atmospheric locals' bar, a rash of vintage-chic rooms and a modern gastropub restaurant. No wonder it's a firm favourite of Clooney, Costner and other Hollywood movie stars...
