Felt really indulged. Tasteful & luxurious. Great location.

Gemma

United Kingdom

Location and parking fantastic. Restaurant atmosphere and food second to none. I really mean that. I'm 56 years old and love Pork Belly. It was the best I ever had. And I have travelled. Family loved the staff and breakfast was superb. Nothing to much trouble. We had a dog with us and a not so well behaved 18 month old baby. Way beyond a 10 score. They also have very nice local clients in the pub which as a guest really makes a difference.

Nicholas

Location was excellent. Really homely feel and fabulous service.

Darren

The location was EXCELLENT and they had a free car park right on the property that was extremely convenient. The food was fantastic especially dinner. Majority of the rooms could accommodate twin beds that were separate which was perfect for my family who did not want to sleep in the same bed. The Kings Head Inn was very quaint and charming and staff was very friendly, informative and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. Would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone!

Lisa

Everything but we particularly liked that we were able to occupy one of the nice rooms despite having our dog with us, and that the staff was very accommodating of our logistical constraints (dinner without booking, early breakfast / late check-out).

Perfect location just outside Rye. We brought our dog and he was very welcome. Lots of easily accessible walks all round the inn.

Mari

Excellent pub with rooms, welcoming and friendly staff, clean, comfortable and well equipped rooms. Good bar, good restaurant with good classic dishes well done. Staff coped calmly and superbly with a small medical emergency suffered by a diner. Would definitely recommend.

David

We stayed in one of the cottages for 2 nights. It was splendid, very clean, very comfortable and really well equipped, plus so prettily decorated with the soft furnishings. The staff were lovely and friendly and very helpful. As for the food , fabulous! We will return.

“Excellent pub with rooms a little outside old Rye.”

Pub is a little away from the historic old town, up a steepish hill. Not a problem for us (we were cycling, and the pub is well set up to store bikes), but anyone staying to visit Rye should check that the location works for them.

room could do with a lick of paint and a little tlc. van parked directly in front of window so could not see further than that. we checked in and went for a drink and someone else with same name was given key to our room. luckily it was an honest gentleman who closed door immediately he realized. my handbag was in the room with car keys, all personal belongings and euros i had collected for a holiday i am taking this week. also I wanted to pay by credit card but payment had already been taken from card details given at time of booking - i would have like to have been asked about this first.
bed ultra comfortable. asked for extra tea/coffee/milk and given bag full. breakfast was nice. staff friendly. lovely dinner and comfortable to have a drink.
