The breakfast was the standout feature of this b&b and was indeed very good as others have noted, with lovely fresh fruit, and faultless cooked food. The room was well... read more fitted out with tea making facilities and biscuits and I loved the fresh flowers everywhere. Gill is a good and experienced hostess. We did feel the photos made the room rather more glamorous than it actually was, and our shower was fiddly and ran cold unexpectedly several times. It was quiet at night.

  We had a delightful stay in Rye, and the Red Cottage added so much to the experience. We had booked the Red Cottage thinking we would drive down from... read more London--there is free on-site parking--but in the end traveled on the train. Rye Cottage was conveniently located only a 5-7 minute walk from the station in a quiet, residential area. From there all the sights of Rye and its shops and restaurants are in easy walking distance. Gill and Brian are lovely hosts who attend to so many details. In the comfortable room (and bed!) was a tea tray with sweets and biscuits, as well as a fridge stocked with milk and water. The breakfast was by far the BEST English breakfast we've had in any of the B&Bs where we stayed during several trips to England--a warm croissant, homemade granola, lots of fresh fruit, cheeses, and all the other main items cooked just perfectly. If we ever visit Rye again--an utterly charming town--we will definitely return to the Red Cottage.

  Just a few minutes walk from town this is a really good B&B. Why? On site parking, very friendly hosts who clearly know how to run a good B&B -... read more how refreshing. Lovely room (well suite actually). Excellent shower and bath. Walk in wardrobe that contains a fridge with water and fresh milk - all the nice details taken care of. A comfy bed and not a sound outside so a good nights sleep was had. Then there was the breakfast - better than most expensive hotels. Will we return - definitely. Thank you for a lovely couple of days.

We had The Bradley Wing on both occasions, which was well appointed with the little homely touches, like fresh milk and a wide selection of tea & coffee. The breakfast was lovely and nothing was too much trouble. We look forward to staying there again.

  We have visited Rye many times and have always stayed in the same hotel, until the last visit in 2018 was under new management and not to our liking, so... read more we searched on line for alternatives. The Red Cottage popped up on Trip Advisor with excellent reviews so we made the decision and definitely did not regret it. Very comfy room, very decent breakfast, nice lady running it and free parking. Prosecco and cold water in the fridge, too. We will probably be back!

  Spent two nights at Red Cottage for a weekend away in Rye and also went for a visit to Chapel Down winery in Tenterden. Great location to walk into Rye,... read more Gill and Brian are wonderful hosts helping with recommendations and taxi suggestions. Breakfast was really good too, with plenty of choice!
