Activities

See & Do
Cobble-stone Rye is a beautifully preserved old maritime town with winding streets, old pubs and lovely buildings. When you've finished exploring the town, walk along the long white beach of Camber Sands or visit the wonderful gardens at Sissinghurst (pre-booking may be necessary) and Great Dixter. The nature reserve and birdlife of Dungeness is also worth seeing.

Spa
The George in Rye works in partnership with the local Aveda salon, the Rye Retreat – two minutes away. Signature treatments include a four-hands massage.
