Posted on jesse l28/09/2025Verified Great stay Owners are very nice and do all they can for you, food is perfect the breakfast was so good and even added a glass of champagne .the place is beautiful building and gardens. Couldn’t recommend it more . 10/10. Would Definatly stay again but maybe for longer next time .Posted on Mike P25/09/2025Verified An absolutely delightful place to stay Our stay at Saltclose Place in Rye was an absolute delight. We were welcomed by Paul and Alan who were so helpful and attentive without being intrusive. The breakfasts were superb. We had some very interesting conversations with Paul, Alan and other guests around the breakfast table. The fizz to accompany the breakfasts was a big treat as were the personal-choice nightcaps. The house and gardens are amazing and the accommodation within the suite we occupied was just perfect, comfortable and quiet. We really appreciated Paul and Alan’s advice on places to visit and restaurants to dine in during the evenings. There is so much of interest to see in Rye and the surrounding area including the charming, cobbled streets and the fish market in the town. We could have gladly spent more than five days at Saltclose Place.Posted on paul15/09/2025Verified Hospitality at Its Finest – A Rye Stay to Remember! From the moment we arrived at Salcote Place, we felt completely at home. Paul and Alan are the perfect hosts – warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. Their hospitality is second to none; nothing was ever too much trouble. The house itself is stunning – full of character, beautifully maintained, and with a friendly, relaxed atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. Breakfasts were a real highlight: freshly prepared, delicious, and every bit as good (if not better) than what you’d expect from a top 5-star hotel. The location couldn’t be better. Just a short walk takes you right into the heart of Rye, with its charming shops, cobbled streets, and history. Excellent public transport links meant we were also able to easily explore further afield – Hastings and Battle were both just a short trip away. Salcote Place is more than just a place to stay – it’s an experience. We left feeling refreshed, spoiled, and already planning our return. If you’re visiting Rye, don’t even think twice – book here.Posted on BernNeston02/09/2025Verified One of our best three stays in forty four years. It's difficult to add more than the earlier comments express....it is an amazing experience staying at Saltcote Place. I think the boys, Paul and Alan have drawn on their huge experience to deliver a stay like no other. You are at most one of three room guests, out of a period Queen Anne residence with forty two rooms. From the moment you arrive you are treated as their most important guest; they preempt everything that contributes to you having the best experience of your travelling/exploring life. Greeting: we had an enthusiastic tour of their Queen Anne residence and a drink to welcome us to their home...stunning. The room: Super comfortable with tasteful furnishings, fresh fruit and a supply of morning drinks. Breakfast: Set in a period designed kitchen with classical features. The menu and table would have graced the Ritz. Each day we enjoyed bubbles to start the 'event'....this was a social occasion and a chance to mix with other guests. I defy anybody to suggest anything not on their hot/cold menu. It was like flying Premium Class. Touches: Somebody once said "You remember the steak (fillet) after you've forgotten the flight"; this is the essence of Saltcote....the decanters of whisky and brandy waiting outside your room in the evening...the touches at breakfast....the enthusiastic insights, suggestions, recommendations and phonecalls that make your stay special. I suppose their previous guest list endorses everything described above, but that conversation awaits you should you decide on staying. If you're looking for bowing and scraping, spas, bling, helipads and butlers standing motionless in the corners of your room...you won't get it, and this isn't for you. Many thanks to Paul and Alan for one of those experiences that remind you that selfless and generous hospitality is alive and well...mixed in with humour and memorable moments...Bernie and Sue IPosted on Roger B12/08/2025Verified A wonderful and unique experience! Excellent from start to finish! A beautiful and unique property set in lovely grounds. The owners, Paul & Alan went above and beyond to make our three night stay so memorable. We have already recommended Saltcote Place to our family and friends. A wonderful experience.Posted on Anthony S31/07/2025Verified What’s not to like? …. .. in a word, nothing! We had a fantastic stay at Saltcote Place. The house is amazing, Alan and Paul are perfect hosts, breakfast was delicious, and very plentiful … the fizz much appreciated and added to the occasion and I got quite used to the nightcap before bed! Fantastic! I was a little apprehensive at the idea of breakfast together, but it was a really fun event, obviously helped by Paul and Alan’s outgoing personalities, but we were also very lucky to share the breakfast table with Mark and Debs, who were also staying and great company too.. thanks to you two too, if you happen to read this review! I would have no hesitation in recommending a stay to anyone, even anti-socials like me! Thanks very much Alan and Paul for letting us into your home, your company and the tips on places to eat and visit.Posted on Sabriam07/07/2025Verified "Who could ask for anything more" A quiet, tranquil, and relaxing stay, just what the doctor ordered (I am assuming the last bit as we couldn't get appointments before we went :) ). The massive grounds were well kept and provided some lovely views. The imposing nature of the house struck you as you drove up the front drive and approached the front gates. Inside the house you were greeted with some exquisite furniture, art, and ornamental pieces. Throughout our stay Alan and Paul, the hosts, were attentive and engaging, but not intrusive. The suite was comfortable and had all we needed, and more, with the fridge being welcome and necessary for drinks…as the weather was unusually hot for one of our holiday breaks. The breakfast was amazing. All in all, a most enjoyable stay.Posted on tosh383826/06/2025Verified The most perfect weekend away at Saltcote Place What a wonderful weekend stay at Saltcote Place. Paul and Alan couldn't have made it any more perfect. From the moment we booked, to our arrival, there was such attention to detail. Alan cooked the best breakfast, piping hot and delicious and we were very grateful for the recommendation of No 50 restaurant in Rye - so glad we managed to get a table there. Absolutely perfect. A lot of establishments could learn a lesson or two from these very experienced hosts!Posted on John T21/06/2025Verified A memorable stay What a lovely place to spend a few days. Paul and Alan were attentive hosts, preparing sumptuous breakfasts, including fizz, and leaving a nightcap outside our room each evening. How civilised! A short walk into Rye which is the quaintest little town you ever saw! Lovely countryside too.Posted on Navigator51763808/05/2025Verified Perfect! An impressive house, immaculately kept. Paul and Alan really went the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect. Breakfast was amazing, and the night cap a lovely touch. A short walk to Rye where there is lots to do, and places to eat. Thoroughly recommended.Load more
