Perched on a hill, the medieval town of Rye is a hidden gem with its cobbled streets and narrow passages revealing architectural treasures among beautifully preserved Medieval, Tudor and Georgian buildings. It is also a haven for the arts with a very successful Jazz and Blues Festival which attracts headline artists to perform at St Mary’s Church alongside free outdoor music events.
