Pros:

Room was big and lovely, staff were really nice. Restaurant was quite expensive but lovely setting. Great location - ~5 min drive to Rye and ~20 to Cambersands. Also <5 min to Tillington winery which I'd really recommend.

Cons:

Spa facilities were slightly dated and the steam room (I think) was out of the order sadly, but still great value and enjoyable.

Not bad, but much cosier and nicer hotels for similar price in Rye itself.
Pros:

Pretty country house with a nice indoor pool and not a bad gym for a hotel.

Cons:

Rooms sparsely decorated, bit tired. We had a junior suite but it was two separate rooms and didn’t feel at all cosy. Felt expensive for what it was.

I have stayed here many times. My latest visit was a disappointment - the hotel is falling behind normal standards, but
Pros:

Great location. Beautiful gardens. Peaceful. Wonderful building.

Cons:

Meintenance is falling apart. Front door and stairs are crumbling dangerously. Floors uneven in the older rooms. Furnishings - old fashioned. Staff - most of the younger staff was nice to a point but also clueless. Waiters did not have patience or a good mood for anyone.

We went for the spa. The pool was ok, but the sauna is falling apart
Pros:

It is value for money if you want a short break in the countryside with Rye 10 minutes drive. The pool is nice.

Cons:

The spa facilities are very old. The sauna is next to the toilets and is falling apart. The door doesn’t shut so it’s not very hot and the wood is rotten.
Dinner was good, but my friend ordered the vegetarian option and it was a very small portion of aubergine (half an aubergine) without any rice, or side salad or anything to accompany it. It was tasty, but charged as a main course when it looked more like a starter.
