Lamb House




Lamb House is an 18th-century house situated in Rye , East Sussex , England , and in the ownership of the National Trust .

The house has Literary connections. It was the home of Henry James from 1898 to 1916, and later of E.F. Benson and Rumer Godden . Benson writes lovingly of both garden and house, renamed "Mallards", in his " Mapp And Lucia " novels.

Some of James's personal possessions can be seen and there is a charming walled garden.

The house is administered and maintained on the Trust's behalf by its current tenant.
