Lovely location with south facing garden to enjoy afternoon and evening sun on the patio. Great for 3 generation family holiday as all bedrooms had en-suite bathroom, so all had own space. Comfortable base for lots of days out.

Well a bit of a disaster on the first day as the boiler had broken down before our arrival. However the plumber was there working on the boiler with Mark the owner when we arrived, diagnosed and part ordered. Over the next two days Mark popped around to make sure we were alright and supplied two electric heaters as well as offering the use of a shoRead morewer in the adjoining property. You can't ask for more than that and shows what a good host he was. The house is well laid out with three double bedrooms and the beds were so comfy. Loved the shower in our room. The dining room table accommodated the five of us easily and then we lounged out on the settees. Outside there is a table and chairs for Al fresco dining too bitter to sit out there at the beginning of the week, but did sit there towards the end as the weather warmed up. Nicely positioned for touring the area. Thank you Mark and Hannah for being great hosts. Hide

The Parlour is set in a lovely location in beautifully kept grounds. The accommodation is spotlessly clean and catered for all our needs, it is very warm and cosy. The local Pub which is so close serves an excellent meal in a very friendly atmosphere.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Parlour. It is a lovely, spacious cottage in a beautiful location. The garden was very pretty and our grandchildren loved the large lawn which provided a perfect space for them. It was high up with lovely views from the access road. We would certainly come again.

Close to good local pub/dining and within easy access to the old towns of Rye and Hastings and some good fine dining restaurants.

We have just returned from a glorious sunny 7 night stay at the Parlour which was the perfect sanctuary to relax in. The local pub the Red Lion absolutely deserves a shout out too for their hospitality and fabulous menu. Would absolutely recommend to anyone.

Very comfortable property in a rural area. Neighbouring property we think was the owners and left us to our own devices. The property was clean with everything you could need with plenty of storage and open plan feel. All bedrooms are on-suite which was great and the beds were comfortable. Garden was lovely and big with plenty of room for the kids Read moreto play and enjoy the space. Location was good for visiting local areas including Hastings, Brighton and we even ventured to Dungeness which was wild....the only pub in a desert was great! The weather was very changeable during our stay but the property aided our ability to be comfortable and if you like wild, windy and wet costal walks then there is plenty of coastline to chose from nearby!!
