A showcase for all this is hidden within in a Ypres Tower at the Rye Museum a stunning building with turrets and round pillar-shaped walls. It was initially there to protect the town during the Napoleonic Wars, but today, it has many community uses, such as the museum and fabulous public gardens. Taking a brief step away from the tranquillity of gardens and museums, there are also many outdoor festivals all year round, more so in the summer season, including art and music events featuring artists and performers of international repute.

You can also throw yourself into the sea and create a splash; being so close to the coast, there are so many opportunities for participation in water sports such as windsurfing, surfing, and canoeing, be it taking a lesson or jumping in at the deep end and learning by doing and hiring for the day. On the other side of town, acres of gently undulating Susses countryside are ready to be explored on the foot of two wheels - if it is cycling holidays in East Sussex that you have in mind, it is ready to be walked across or cycled upon. Whatever the weather, whatever your preference, there’s always so much to be done in Rye that you’ll never be short of something to enjoy.
