Really disappointing - we came for lunch on a sunny Friday. The venue is beautiful but Fthey have an odd policy when it comes to children - only accepted below 18 months and above 10 years (not sure what they do if you're staying?). The welcome was a bit cool and we were never offered drinks. The menu looked good but the food was very average and a spinach soup inedible - we let them know and although they apologized it wasn't taken off the bill. There are better places to eat in Rye so I'd give it a miss if you haven't exhausted the other options
