Saltcote Place

Bespoke hospitality- thanks to our lovely host Paul & Alan. If you are looking for a jokuday feel like home at quite town, Saltfote Place is a place for you.

We stayed in the fabulous Amberley Suite which has stunning views of the gardens. The bathroom was very spacious and four poster bed was very comfy! This was a truly special place to celebrate a milestone birthday with my mother. Paul and Alan make you feel so at home and nothing is too much trouble. The breakfast is superb as were the extras such as the nightcap before bed! We felt very pampered and spoiled

We really enjoyed our stay at Saltcote. Our room was enormous, with a lovely view and an equally enormous bathroom, both full of elaborate ornaments. The house (or rather mansion) is quiet and secluded, and only a 15 minute walk into Rye. We got a very friendly welcome including a glass of wine from Paul. We could choose from a wide variety of alcoholic beverages as a nightcap. It was then left outside our room on a silver tray. Breakfast was a highlight: fresh fruit, anything from many varieties and sizes of eggs benedict with homemade hollandaise to a full English, plus orange juice, buck's fizz or straight sparkling wine. Everything was beautifully presented. Paul and Alan are both very friendly, helpful and entertaining. Paul has a fund of stories. We stayed 3 nights and spent our 2 days exploring Rye and the interesting Lamb House, walking across Dungeness and visiting historic Winchelsea. There are some excellent restaurants in Rye. It was a wonderful break.

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 .

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 I

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.
