A stylish coastal getaway that’s perfect for a boutique short break ,with individually decorated rooms just minutes from the vast Camber Sands
Location
Just a five-minute drive from Rye in East Sussex, you’ll find the village of Camber which is home to The Gallivant. Camber Sands is admittedly not the most beautiful beach on the English Coast, but the wide expanse is perfect for a bracing walk in the winter or enjoying the warmer weather in summer, and there's plenty of room for dogs to run around (the beach is open to dogs year-round, although in summer there are some restrictions in terms of area). There’s not much in Camber itself, but just down the road in Rye there are plenty of charming shops, cafes and restaurants – be sure to check out the recently refurbished George pub as well as the Fig restaurant. There is a railway station in Rye with regular trains from London St Pancras via Ashford, with a total journey time of roughly one hour 15 minutes.
