Thank you for your kind review Angela. It was a pleasure to host you both. PS my daughter is married to an Evans in Kent but probably no family connection. Take care.

First of many stays hopefully

My family as well as many friends have been visiting Church Knowle regularly since 1960’s. We have stayed in various houses, hotels , camp sites and B&B’s over this time and have no hesitation in recommending this property for short stays

Very unfair marking compared to others. This guest clearly did not read the property description. It has a kitchenette with airfryer, microwave, oven/grill combo. Toaster, kettle, sink and fridge. Its not a full kitchen and this was immediately a problem. We want everyone to enjoy their stay with us. We always ask if there are any questions before arrival. But we do assume guests look at the pictures and facilities before booking. There is actually more in the annex than the description highlights at this time. Regards Stephen and Niki
