One of the best sourdough loaves from the Lazy baker you will find, so popular you need to reserve one as they sell out fast. Rosie's cakes are amazing and the cheese scones a personal favourite. Light meals for eating in and good coffee, the perfect brunch stop.

No visit to Rye is complete without visiting Knoops and selecting your personal hot chocolate and killer marshmallows. Keen to advise as the menu can be slightly daunting but guaranteed to delight whatever you opt for.

Friendly warm welcome, great pub grub locally sourced. In the Winter a roaring fire and great atmosphere, can be quite loud. Probably not so family friendly in the evenings but great for a Sunday lunch.

A great burger place and fab deserts to keep the children happy. A little more upmarket than the usual burger joints and a firm favourite with our visiting families.

A great local pub out on the marsh with two bars, one with a large open fire and the other with a woodburner. Good honest pub grub and local ales. Large pub garden and always a warm welcome. Only a short drive from Rye.

A favourite lunch spot for us, with great lattes and food. Personal favourite the American pancakes, never fail to impress. Stunning views across the marsh from the back room.

Sightseeing

Great starting place to understand the history of the medieval town. Visit the sound and light show and see the town come to live with the 'Town Model'. Enjoy playing the vintage pier arcade machines with original 1D coinage and enjoy local art works & items displayed around the centre.

A striking landmark that can be seen from below a reminder of Rye's historical past. Worth a visit and great to visit during a ghost tour if you are feeling brave enough on a dark night.

Neighbourhoods

Miles of beach with a mixture of sand and pebbles depending on which end you choose to sit. Life guards during peak season and the usual beach & cafe take aways close by. Shallow waters when the tide retreats leaving pools for young children to enjoy. Please note if visiting with the family dog that restrictions are in place from April to October and certain areas dogs are not allowed.

Local nature reserve with a mixture of trails and tarmac footpaths. Popular with bird watchers, cyclists , walkers and young families. Locals like to swim from the beach as much quieter than the other beaches and free parking in the car park close to the reserve. The new discovery centre and cafe is due to open soon and will add to the enjoyment of a visit.

For those that like a quieter beach with rock pools for the children at low tide and fossil hunting amongst the pebbles and near to the cliffs at Fairlight. Free road parking and no public facilities but a firm favourite with locals.

If you walk along Mermaid Street it is like stepping back in time along the cobbled road. History to be soaked up and enjoyed, pretty houses to be envied and lots of the traditional quirks that come with such a quintessentially English seaside town.

If you want fun on the river, in a rowing boat, SUP or swim, all these are possible from this beautiful location. You can even take a trip to Bodiam Castle or enjoy a sunset boat ride. Really important to book ahead. Great cafe with a Spanish twist on site too

If the weather isn't great for the beach, you can always take a dip in the local pool. No flumes or waves but not often busy so fun for family and solo swimmers.
