Hidden Gem Rye was a wonderful stay. We thoroughly enjoyed the indoor and outdoor spaces. Everything was really well thought out and catered for. Leonie was always available and responsive, which helps when you have a 3 year old and a newborn! We were there in winter and would definitely consider returning when there's warm weather. Perfect set up for a summer, beach getaway
