We really enjoyed our stay at this holiday home. It is lovingly and cosily furnished, with everything you could possibly need – you can tell that a lot of thought has gone into the details. We especially loved the secluded location, which allowed us to truly switch off and enjoy the peace and quiet. One minor point of criticism is that the cleanliness could have been a bit better in some areas. Overall, however, the positive aspects far outweigh this, and we would definitely love to come back!

Chocolate-Box Perfection!

The most beautiful thatched English country cottage, decorated to quirky perfection and equipped with everything you could possibly need. Wonderful family living space includes a great kitchen, fully equipped with a really comfortable seating area for TV watching. There are two sets of stairs, which we found manageable and heated floors! The dining room in the conservatory is classy and light, leading into the prettiest, most peaceful garden, full of shrubs & flowers and overlooking open fields. The bedroom was cosy, the bed very comfortable, the colours feminine and welcoming. A lovely location to explore the Kent countryside and beaches. We especially enjoyed Camber Sands (great for dogs before 1st May) and Tenterden, with good places to eat and lots of independent shops. We so enjoyed the experience, as did our little furry companion and we’d definitely recommend it!

Lovely cottage as starting point for Kent visits

The cottage is well centered in the middle of Kent and therefore an optimal retreat for any Kent visits. Lovely and luxurious cottage with a responsive owner. 20 minutes drive to sandy beaches as well as 40 minutes to Canterbury, Turnbridge Wells or Sissihurst Gardens. Just an outstanding vacation experience to be repeated!!!

Beautiful cottage

The cottage is beautiful, the surroundings are beautiful. The owner takes pride in the cottage and it is evident from the moment you arrive. It exceeded our expectations and we were not disappointed at all. The only tip I have for guests arriving who are not familiar with the area is to arrive before dark or you may find it difficult to find :)

A beautiful cottage and a terrific stay

We could not recommend this cottage more highly. The property is extremely pretty and our daughter loved pottering around in the garden watering the flowers. The hot tub is a highlight which is top of the range with powerful jets and underwater lighting. The cottage has a wonderful balance of traditional beauty combined with luxury modern facilities. The local area is fantastic to explore with excellent biking and walks. The owner was extremely helpful throughout. We would stay again.

Wonderful Cottage!

We visited the cottage in February and had a wonderful stay the cottage is warm and so cosy beautifully furnished with top end furnishings and very spacious for 6 persons there are amazing views from all parts of the cottage. We braved the hot tub and it was wonderfully clean and warm and so relaxing sitting in the bubbles looking over the countryside while relaxing what bliss! The cottage is ideally situated near to lovely villages and the town of Tenterden with good shopping and lovely eateries. If you can I strongly recommend you visit this charming cottage it is a must and we will definitely be going back plus the owners were lovely people to deal with and very helpful to us.

Absolutely perfect

A beautiful chocolate box cottage, looks teeny from the outside, but upon entering it’s a tardis! Light, bright and airy; a fabulous mixture of hundreds of year old charm with modern facilities (like a lovely new kitchen and bathroom). Spotlessly clean, incredibly well equipped this is a perfect rental. Views are stunning, the area is beautiful, the hot tub is fabulous. Highly recommend.

Picturesque stay in this wonderful cottage

We all had such a wonderful stay at this stunning cottage, I would give it 10 stars if I could! It is absolutely beautiful inside and out, and had everything we needed - including a hot tub!! The kids loved the hot tub, and so did we! What a beautiful way to relax and enjoy the views! The owners were lovely and gave us some great suggestions on where to visit and to eat. Battle is a great place to go for the day, and we had a wonderful meal at Simply I in Rye, thanks for the suggestions! The cottage was lovely & clean and everything inside was decorated beautifully. We had everything we needed for cooking etc. I spent a lot of my time in the conservatory in the evening, relaxing and reading my book and star gazing! What a wonderful stay, we will definitely be back and I am still recommending this to all my friends!! Thanks !
