  We had a week in February.

  It was cold and wet. The flat was toasty warm, though. In fact, we had to turn the heating off at night as it was set to be on all the time, which seems odd and an expensive option. It is small, but that is obvious, and, unusually for a one-bedroom flat, has seven steps down from living room to bedroom as well as the several steps up from quayside to front door, which might be a problem for some. The town end of the access road is like a ploughed field and needs great care to drive over. It was clean and the facilities worked, though the TV did not seem able to cope with Netflix very well, despite the broadband service being very, very fast; it kept dropping out. We used an iPad instead. There is no BBC iPlayer app on the TV either. Broadcast TV seemed fine, though we never watch it. The river forms a fascinating view through the front window, with wading birds active at low water.

  Providence Cottage is a beautiful property in a great location in Rye, with everything you could want on the doorstep. The cottage was clean and well equipped and there was a lovely welcome pack with goodies left by the owners which gave us a real sense of being welcomed to the property. There was lots to do within close proximity to Rye and ideal as a base for us to explore the area with a young family. We contacted the owners about an issue while we were there and they we really helpful and efficient in sorting it. The only reason we have put “good” and not “very good” for being child friendly is the very steep stairs which would be tricky with very young children- but this is mentioned in the information in the website. Our boys (12 and 9 years) loved it!

  We enjoyed our stay in Providence Cottage; it is just inside the citadel walls. With a dog, walks are easily accessible. The garden is long and thin but catches the sun nicely in the afternoon; cushions for the garden furniture were helpful. We found the double bed comfortable. Excellent notes and suggestions from the owners and a generous 'welcome pack' including lovely flowers! Parking is not a problem as we were advised to use the main town car park £2/24 hrs. Rye is a beautiful friendly town and we enjoyed Camber Sands, Rye Nature Reserve, Brede Woods, lots of pubs, tea room & restaurants just nearby, wonderful small independent shops, and Nineteen for a massage!

  A very well equipped and maintained apartment with all the home comforts.

  Quality furniture, fixtures & fittings made for an enjoyable week's self catering stay. Extras such as binoculars to observe the sea-birds and underfloor bathroom heating added to the quality feel. Everything was spotlessly clean. Location was perfect for exploring Rye on foot and other places such as Camber Sands, Dungeness & Hastings a short drive away. Only complaint - the arrival instructions (and satnav) tell you to access the property via the very narrow Shipyard Lane which was only just possible with our small car. We found that continuing another 100m to St Margaret's Terrace gave better access for all traffic to Rock Channel Quay.

  This is a delightful, quirky, Grade 2 listed cottage with charming interior decor. The front is so attractive, with its display of geraniums, that we saw other visitors taking photos of it. The pretty garden is small, but definitely big enough, and a sun trap in the afternoon. There is a good supply of cookware and an eclectic mix of plates, glasses and cutlery, as well as the usual kitchen appliances in the tiny but more than adequate kitchen. The cottage is close to all amenities - shops, pubs, restaurants, etc. - but off the main drag, so quiet at night. This is a lovely cottage in the charming town of Rye and we loved our time there.
