Saltcote Place

We stayed in the fabulous Amberley Suite which has stunning views of the gardens. The bathroom was very spacious and four poster bed was very comfy! This was a truly special place to celebrate a milestone birthday with my mother. Paul and Alan make you feel so at home and nothing is too much trouble. The breakfast is superb as were the extras such as the nightcap before bed! We felt very pampered and spoiled

The most magical place. If you ever get a chance to stay, you must! Congratulations to Paul and Allan for creating such a beautiful house and home. Their level of service and attention to detail will leave you feeling so well-looked after. Heaven!

It's difficult to add more than the earlier comments express....it is an amazing experience staying at Saltcote Place. I think the boys, Paul and Alan have drawn on their huge experience to deliver a stay like no other. You are at most one of three room guests, out of a period Queen Anne residence with forty two rooms. From the moment you arrive you are treated as their most important guest; they preempt everything that contributes to you having the best experience of your travelling/exploring life. Greeting: we had an enthusiastic tour of their Queen Anne residence and a drink to welcome us to their home...stunning. The room: Super comfortable with tasteful furnishings, fresh fruit and a supply of morning drinks. Breakfast: Set in a period designed kitchen with classical features. The menu and table would have graced the Ritz. Each day we enjoyed bubbles to start the 'event'....this was a social occasion and a chance to mix with other guests. I defy anybody to suggest anything not on their hot/cold menu. It was like flying Premium Class. Touches: Somebody once said "You remember the steak (fillet) after you've forgotten the flight"; this is the essence of Saltcote....the decanters of whisky and brandy waiting outside your room in the evening...the touches at breakfast....the enthusiastic insights, suggestions, recommendations and phonecalls that make your stay special. I suppose their previous guest list endorses everything described above, but that conversation awaits you should you decide on staying. If you're looking for bowing and scraping, spas, bling, helipads and butlers standing motionless in the corners of your room...you won't get it, and this isn't for you. Many thanks to Paul and Alan for one of those experiences that remind you that selfless and generous hospitality is alive and well...mixed in with humour and memorable moments...Bernie and Sue I

Excellent from start to finish! A beautiful and unique property set in lovely grounds. The owners, Paul & Alan went above and beyond to make our three night stay so memorable. We have already recommended Saltcote Place to our family and friends. A wonderful experience.

A quiet, tranquil, and relaxing stay, just what the doctor ordered (I am assuming the last bit as we couldn't get appointments before we went :) ). The massive grounds were well kept and provided some lovely views. The imposing nature of the house struck you as you drove up the front drive and approached the front gates. Inside the house you were greeted with some exquisite furniture, art, and ornamental pieces. Throughout our stay Alan and Paul, the hosts, were attentive and engaging, but not intrusive. The suite was comfortable and had all we needed, and more, with the fridge being welcome and necessary for drinks…as the weather was unusually hot for one of our holiday breaks. The breakfast was amazing. All in all, a most enjoyable stay.

What a wonderful weekend stay at Saltcote Place. Paul and Alan couldn't have made it any more perfect. From the moment we booked, to our arrival, there was such attention to detail. Alan cooked the best breakfast, piping hot and delicious and we were very grateful for the recommendation of No 50 restaurant in Rye - so glad we managed to get a table there. Absolutely perfect. A lot of establishments could learn a lesson or two from these very experienced hosts!
