Lovely home
We had a lovely stay at The Cottage! The house is large and spacious, with plenty of room to cater for family groups. It was a huge bonus to have a hot tub, and a play room as well as child-friendly dishes and cutlery. Would definitely recommend!

Wedding party (old kent barn )
Fantastic family home and perfect for a 4 generation family to get ready at and to have a Sunday post wedding gathering . The view is unparallelled ,the gardens well maintained and the 'local ' is actually on the beach ! (difficult walk for grandma) We were made very welcome by Henry and the house was well presented in all aspects with ample catering equipment ....We did discuss if the property could be improved with a new kitchen and general overhaul but concluded that the 'quirkyness ', charm and almosts stately home feel of the property would be lost if you did .. The essentials such as bathrooms have all been completely updated as with the hot tub and feel that the owners made the right choice by having the bathrooms brought up to modern and high quality standards . If we had constructive comments , it would be that the off road car parking looks bigger in the photos (ample parking overall), that the balconies should be next on the to do list , the loft room could do with a small ensuite and a compost would be nice ......but this is being really picky and absolutely none of the above detract us from recommneding this as a great place to stay and it being good value for money ...I sincerely hope you get to experience this wonderful , homely property and have a great holiday .
