HOTEL
  
     
 
The George in Rye
Located in the centre of Rye, East Sussex, the hotel was recently renovated to create one of the most stunning hideaways on the south coast. The building dates from 1575 and has enviable heritage; it even has an original Georgian ballroom used for lavish weddings and banquets. An eclectic and contemporary design has been given to this historic fabric using a wide range of antique and modern furniture, materials and local art. The result is a comfortable blend of old and new, creating an atmosphere which is relaxed, informal and individual.

Rye itself is unlike any other town in England. A medieval townscape locked in time and with a fascinating history, it offers a great escape for relaxation or romance. Four miles from the white beach of Camber Sands the sea air is wonderful any time of year.
 
 
 
GOLF
  
 
 
Littlestone  

Founded in 1888, this championship links course on the English Channel, on the edge of Romney Marsh, is a traditional family golf club. It is a 6,486 yards par 71 standard scratch 72 for gentlemen and 5,737 yards par 73 standard scratch 73 for ladies - altogether, a wonderful test of golf. Tight turf, deep bunkers, strong breezes - and, as you might expect, a homely clubhouse in which to relive your best shots. Gentlemen members and visitors alike may always play from the medal tees. Littlestone is a two ball only Club, but there are occasional special offers for limited 4 Balls. Visitors and societies are welcome during the week, a limited number of visitors can be accommodated at weekends and on public holidays.
Chart Hills  

Chart Hills was officially opened in August 1993, the first ball being struck by Nick Faldo himself. With 138 bunkers, 5 different teeing positions and greens so fast that they have been likened to putting on glass, Faldo has created 18 holes each with its own personal characteristics and challenges. Faldo has truly left his mark on the course with some memorable 'signature' features, such as the 200-yard long snake like Anaconda Bunker on the 5th and the island green at the short 17th. Nick Faldo said "Chart Hills has surpassed even my expectations and I doubt that anyone would ever tire of playing this course".
Rye  
Rye is so very private that it is nigh impossible for most golfers to secure a tee time – it’s a lot easier to get a game on the Old course at St Andrews ! However, London Golf may now be able to reserve limited preferential tee times for our overseas clients. Rye is a traditional old seaside venue that grants you the welcome opportunity to step back in time. Many believe the Old Course at Rye to be one of the most eye-catching, memorable and challenging links courses in the country and it is very hard to disagree with that.
Prince's  

You think of Prince’s and you think of Gene Sarazen. for it was Sarazen who won the Championship in 1932 on the one occasion it was held at Prince’s.  Situated ‘next door’  to Royal St George’s on the Kent coast at Sandwich, Prince’s has the kind of geography and terrain that made it an ideal site for war time manoeuvres; but, happily for golfers, in 1950 the links was restored to its former glory – although not as an 18 hole Championship course, rather as a layout comprising 27 holes, the present day three loops of nine. With windswept plateaued greens, rippling fairways and tangling rough, each of the nines at Prince’s (the Himalayas, Shore and Dunes) presents a daunting test of traditional links golf.
