Excellent for the price point

Excellent value for money. Basic room and bathroom, however it has everything you need. Comfortable beds, it?s quiet, has nice bed linen and large fluffy towels! Little extras you would not expect at this price point, such as complimentary toiletries, and bottled water in the fridge. It was also spotless!
Extremely helpful owner, who went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend the great escape B&B

From the moment I contacted Ed about rooms for a family gathering, he couldn?t have been more helpful and offered fair rates for everyone. Just outside Rye, the location and layout was perfect for our group to be together whilst having our own rooms, which were clean and comfortable. Delicious Full English Breakfast - and great Fish & Chips at The Oak!

Our first stay but definitely not our last. The location was perfect for us visiting friends and family in the area, something we do a couple of times a year since moving away. Originally booked as we were attending a family big birthday meal in The Oak and this meant we could enjoy an alcoholic beverage or two! Rooms are spotless and well equipped for a short stay. Bonus is you can book for just one night and that some rooms are dog friendly which was perfect for our needs. Communication was excellent. Looking forward to our next stay!

Couldn't fault rooms thought the breakfast was over priced at £15 a head for full English

This was our third stay at the B&B (3 families with kids and dogs) and although management had changed the experience was just as great as the previous visits. The breakfast was well cooked and plentiful and our host Ed was friendly and very helpful. The Oak offered good food and live music one of the nights we were there. Well situated close to Rye and superb beaches. Highly recommended. P.s. thank you for sending my pyjamas bottoms back to me - very thoughtful and kind! X

I really loved this place, reminded me of being in a motel but so much better. The bed was very comfortable, clean all around and quiet. You'll find a little fridge, kettle, tea and coffee etc.The host Ed was very accomodating and friendly. You can tell he put so much effort and time into the place.Would definitely recommend. We stayed for a night but we will come back to stay again.It is handy to have a car as the place is a little bit outside of Rye. By car it is like 5 minutes and by walk I'd say about an hour.The Oak pub was also great, they have delicious food in the evening. We also had lovely breakfast there.

When we arrived there had been a water issue and the staff made sure that we had bottled water in our room ready, this issue didn't continue but it was reassuring to know they would set this up for us. We were also able to get a meal at the pub even though they weren't serving outside and were fully booked inside, they kindly let us have a salad and water so we didn't starve. I also left my shoes and they posted them to me free of charge.

So pleased to have found The Great Escape - perfect location, great facilities in the rooms, very clean and Ed could not have been more helpful. The staff in the pub next door were so friendly and went out of their way to accommodate us and served the most delicious breakfast! Would thoroughly recommend The Great Escape and would definitely stay again! Thank you ?
