Breakfast was perfect: cooked English b’fast and continental plus plenty of fruit and yogurt.
Position of room was overlooking the courtyard surrounding a fountain and pond. There was seating with cushions where you could wait for your friends to join you. The hotel was just on the outskirts of Winchelsea so it was convenient for travel to different places. Plenty of parking. The staff were excellent, efficient and friendly. What more could you want!

The hotel was fantastic! From the moment we arrived we were treated by friendly staff. We were very looked after & made to feel at home. The hotel had so much history we really enjoyed it especially a tour of the rooms & cellar. The food was delicious. The room super clean but our favourite thing was how lovely the staff were!
The sand between your toes. Sky and beach as far as your eyes can see. Wonderful food made with love. Deeply comfortable beds in beautifully thought out bedrooms. Daily yoga and wellness classes.

The question as put means our answer is rather misleading.
The question as put means our answer is rather misleading. We did not have time to explore Winchelsea as we would have liked, but spent much of our time in Rye, a quarter-hour drive away and with enough to keep us busy ind interested for two days. We only scratched the surface of the possibilities of the wider area. In Rye, park as soon as you can in any of the car-parks at the foot of the hill and walk. There is masses to see, but the one-way system within the town can be a nightmare to the unwary.

Winchelsea beach is a remote and beautiful coastline, perfect for November stormy weather. 20 mins away from Rye nature reserve and Petts Level cliffs.
This is not in Winchelsea itself, but Winchelsea beach.

Beautiful, peaceful, historic town with strong local community feel, excellent to combine with exploring the rest of the area (Rye, Dungeness etc). Lovely place to spend a few hours walking around, enjoying the view over the surrounding countryside.
Schedule visit with a date the cellar tours are on- we only found out about these after we visited!

Small village of houses but beautiful one pub, one corner shop .
Great stop point to venture to beaches, Rye, battle and surrounding areas which have lots of pubs and cafes
Is also suitable for relaxing rest
The cottage is idyllic. It's actually very spacious and easily accommodated our family. The garden was the perfect place for an early morning coffee. Absolute bliss... no noise except for bird song and bees. The kitchen is wonderfully stocked - plenty quality pots, pans, etc. Everything is spotlessly clean. Winchelsea itself is an ideal base for some walking/running/swimming - the circular walk to Rye was an ideal way to sped Saturday morning. To top it all, the hosts left Easter eggs for us - what a kind gesture. THANK YOU.
A warm welcome on arrival. Such a quaint place to stay, with beautiful gardens to sit in and listen to the birds singing. Parking available on site. Short walk to the nearest pub serving food and drink all day. There is an honesty bar for those who want drinks in the hotel. Full English Breakfast was lovely. The bed we had was amazingly comfortable and would come back again just to get a decent nights sleep in a comfy bed, one of the best beds we’ve ever stayed in! Fantastic power shower and loads of fresh towels provided.

Our hosts were friendly and welcoming. We had a bedroom, bathroom and living room with a TV to our selves. The bed was comfortable and our bedroom was tastefully decorated. Breakfast was the continental variety, with plenty of fruit and croissants. The rooms were scrupulously clean. The Gem made a great place to set up base and explore. We visited Rye, the nature reserve and Winchelsea.
Caroline was extremely welcoming and helpful, even before we arrived
The apartment was placed in a beautiful setting, very spacious and lovely decor. There was a large, garden and wood fired hot tub.
Location was great for visiting Rye and Hastings and Winchelsea beach was only a few minutes drive.
Would highly recommend and look forward to staying again.
Winchelsea is a beautiful small town with many lovely buildings. It looks idyllic. The church is the central focus of the town and is a must to visit. It is a stones throw from Rye and the nature reserve. There is a glorious walk from the house along the Military Canal to the sea and various paths around the Pett level.
Caravan was clean, spacious and equipped with everything we needed. We didn’t use any of the park facilities, but there was a fish and chip shop and a Co-Op next to the entrance. Pebbly beach nearby and Camber Sands only 20mins away.
The room was comfortable. We loved the balcony in Room 17 and the telescope that was provided for us to look at the wildlife.
The staff were very friendly, especially the young lady who welcomed us to the hotel at Reception.
The Winchelsea lodge is a basic, affordable place to stay. The staff kindly sorted us out as we were going to be returning from a wedding after check-in had closed. The breakfast included in the price exceeded expectations.
Large room with space for 2 comfortable chairs and a large TV. Well stocked tea and coffee with large mugs. Nice bar and restaurant. Plenty of parking. A lovely walk directly behind the hotel into the amazing Winchelsea.
Private lounge facility with the bedroom - like a suite, meant very comfortable. Substantial breakfast, all delicious. Friendly host and off road parking. Quiet with good views, but Winchelsea within walking distance.
