About this property
★Tulip Tree Cottage★ Huge Garden+village setting+near Canterbury+dog friendly
Tulip Tree Cottage was originally the village school house built in the 1870's and now a comfortable and newly converted home situated in the Kent Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Within walking distance of the village supermarket, pharmacy and 2 good pubs, this is the perfect place for a family holiday or weekend getaway with friends. This cottage has its own secluded patio with seating and is surrounded by flowers and plants from Spring onwards - perfect for breakfast and long summer evenings. The lawn and woods is shared with the guests in the cottage next door, but there's plenty of space for everyone. 5 mins to Canterbury, 60 mins from London and 27 mins from the Eurotunnel exit. 10% discount for 7 nights+.

About the host
Hosted by James Logan
Hi, I'm James and this is my wife Ayako. We have two kids aged 12 and 14. I was born in Kent, grew up in London, worked in Japan for over 20 years and moved back to the UK in 2012. I've sailed a lot over the years but recently do mostly long walks around the UK and around Bridge. We enjoy camping and staying in other people's holiday lets in the UK and France. I used to spend 14 hours a day in a suit but now I'm either digging, planting or painting a wall !
