What better place to take a break

Saltcote Place started life as a Wedding present, it was designed by the influential architect Sir Reginald Blomfield in the Queen Anne style for Captain AAR Hennessy and his young bride by the French side of this famous family, the house was completed in 1905 having taken over two years to build. It took us over 4 years to renovate.

Because of the heritage, we named the penthouse "The Hennessy suite" which is also available as an elegant bridal suite in addition to being a fantastic weekend or midweek retreat for those used to the best things in life. The Hennessy suite is not available all year around, it is only available for a maximum of 139 days.

Used as a Military headquarters, a nursing home and three times as a School the first being in 1922 it came back into private ownership in 2003 for the first time since 1920, since then we have worked hard to restore the property and now you can enjoy it for your visit to Rye.

Saltcote offere awesome views from the garden; the quite secure location lets you relax and with plenty of free parking and only 8 minutes walk to the town centre it makes Saltcote Place stand out as the obvious choice when looking for something special.

The property is large and has extensive grounds with outstanding views ranging from Dover to Fairlight over Camber beach, the harbour and of course panoramic views of Rye bay.

As a sought after Sussex wedding venue we specialise in the smaller intimate Ceremony and receptions here. Be sure to look at "Celebrate at Saltcote above"
