Best kept beer in Hythe at a fair price, served with charm and a great atmosphere. Always a good range from pale ale to porter. Wine, cider and snacks also available
2. Crypt of St. Leonard
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 228 reviews
Medieval church with an extraordinary "ossuary" (the largest and best-preserved collection of ancient human skulls and bones in Britain). The bones are in a room built as part of the 13th-century extensions to the church. The room is sometimes known as the "crypt" but it is above-ground and can be visited from Easter to the end of September. The church is a wonderful example of how English parish churches have grown and changed through history, with a a variety of architectural styles and features. There are some remarkable medieval "pilgrim graffiti" in the church, too. The church is open during daylight hours every day.

Me and a friend found this place while we were out exploring Hythe on a walk, fascinating little church with a lot of interesting history to it, the skulls are definitely worth a visit! Lovely that this little piece of history is tucked away in Hythe.

Medieval church with an extraordinary "ossuary" (the largest and best-preserved collection of ancient human skulls and bones in Britain). The ossuary (also known as The Crypt) is now closed for the winter season, re-opening at Easter 2019. The church is a wonderful example of how English parish churches have grown and changed through history, with a a variety of architectural styles and features. There are some remarkable medieval "pilgrim graffiti" in the church, too. The church is open during daylight hours every day. Sunday services normally include Parish Communion at 9:30 (with choir, organ, hymns), and Choral Evensong at 6:30 (cathedral-style with robed choir of boys and men, and sung prayers from the Book of Common Prayer).

Saw this on tv years ago and have been meaning to visit this church and ossuary ever since. Well worth a visit. The church has some beautiful stained glass windows and the ossuary is fascinating with very friendly and helpful staff to tell you the history and point out interesting facts. A short but walk from Hythe High Street. Quite steep (took my parents, neither of whom in great health) but they made it slowly!
4. Brockhill Country Park

Stroll through this old Victorian pleasure garden and marvel at the range of habitats. The lake is a shady oasis and the valley swoops down to the Brockhill stream, teeming with life. The park offers fantastic views to the English Channel.

Been here many times over several years, particularly good for children. Plenty of room to stretch their legs, explore, play park and a lovely walk around the lake. Good for picnics and a pleasant cafe for food, drink and ice creams. Small charge for car park, otherwise free entry. Look out for children's activity days.
5. Fisherman's Beach

Enjoy a lovely walk in the fresh air. It's a shingle beach and not that wheelchair or pushchair friendly but it's still worth the effort to enjoy the peace and quiet and the glorious views out to sea. There is a promenade, which is wheelchair and pushchair friendly, but this ends just where the beach begins. Road parking (pay and display during summer months) is available. There is also a cafe for food and drinks.

There is always room on Hythe beach to enjoy a leisurely walk or cycle ride. It is enjoyable to watch the wind surfers and little sailing boats on the water and the dog walkers on the promenade. Mrs Rio is usually there for most of the Summer months with her lovely and reasonably priced icecreams. Whatever the weather or time of year, Hythe beach is the best place to be.
