The Gallivant
Getting there
The Gallivant is by the dune-covered beach at Camber Sands, a 10-minute drive out of Rye and close to all the action of 1066 Country.
- Planes The closest major airport is London Gatwick, an hour and a half away by car. There’s also the smaller Lydd, which is five miles away; hotel transfers from here cost £10. Private planes can land at Lydd.
- Trains Rye is three miles away, and hotel transfers or a taxi should cost around £10. From here, Southeastern (www.southeasternrailway.co.uk) trains go to Ashford, where you can pick up either the high-speed service to London or the Eurostar (www.eurostar.com).
- Automobiles You need a car to be able to get into Rye easily. From Ashford, it’s a half-hour drive along the A2070; from London, the M20 should come in handy. There’s free parking.
- Others Reach Rye Harbour by boat and you’ll be about 10 minutes from the hotel.
