Wonderful historical building, with a host who helped us when we got lost (😂 it was way easier than we made it seem!) as well as giving the goods in regards to their pub recommendation. We had an amazing meal! Also helpful, kind hearted touchea such as washing pods, a teapot AND a kettle to brew a tea as you wonder at the view. ##### Nicola F.

Had a wonderful break. Amenities were very good. Cleanliness excellent. Granny came with us so the downstairs room and bathroom were ideal for her. She did say that unfortunately the mattress downstairs was uncomfortable. Otherwise it was an ideal setting. Enjoyed the apple orchards and The wildlife. Owners very friendly and helpful. Can reach many places for days out, food etc, whilst retreating to the peace and quiet, and clear night skies. Would definitely recommend and hope to return.

We stayed the last week in May and had the most amazing time. The owners were so welcoming and friendly. The cottage had everything you could want, and the location was fantastic. The outside space thats allocated with the cottage was fantastic we played for hours outside. The location is perfect for the beach, Canterbury Castle, wildlife park etc etc. There are 2 local pubs/restaurants minutes from the cottage and the owners were so nice (The Rising Sun and The Dog and Duck, the food was delicious.
