The Hope Anchor Hotel and Restaurant (Hotel)
The Hope Anchor is a mid 18th Century Hotel built at the end of one of the most delightful streets in Rye. The building originally would have housed a Smugglers gang thought to have been 'The Tenterden', a nasty motley crew! Pistols at the ready and regular fights for territory with other local smuggling gangs including the infamous Hawkhurst, legend has it that on one occasion the Tenterden gang famously out gunned the Hawkhurst gang and they scurried hurriedly back to their watering hole! Most of the secret passage ways and escape routes are now blocked in but once here, it doesn't take a lot of imagination to realise what it was like in those dark and exciting days!
Although famous for its past, the Hope Anchor is known locally for its quality of service and food, it's stunning views across the Quayside, Romney Marshes and beyond to the sea.
