About this property

Comfortable, characterful cottage for 3 in Tenterden, woodburner and parking

This is a cosy end terrace cottage which sleeps 3, situated in St. Michaels; with shops and pubs on the doorstep it is also 1 mile outside the beautiful Kent town of Tenterden. Tenterden is a very attractive small market town with plenty of independent shops and small cafes, two supermarkets, banks and a choice of pubs and restaurants. The attractive High Street is a tree lined avenue which has an abundance of historic buildings to gaze at including a fabulous 11th century church. The property is ideally situated to explore the wide variety of activities that the Kent and Sussex coast and countryside offer from the Cinque Port towns of Hastings, Rye and Hythe to the main county towns of Tunbridge Wells and Canterbury. There are several National Trust properties nearby including the impressive Sissinghurst Castle Gardens, Scotney Castle, Bodiam Castle and Smallhythe Place. Moreover, there are a number of easy walks from the doorstep as well as water based activities at Rye and Newenden. The nos. 2, 1 and 18 national network cycle paths pass nearby and the area is home to a number of keen cycling clubs. The property benefits from off road parking and an enclosed garden to the rear with good quality garden furniture. The sitting room has a TV and DVD plus wood burning stove (some logs provided). The kitchen has an oven, hob, kettle, toaster, microwave, small fridge freezer and washing machine plus dining table and chairs. Upstairs, the advantages of the main bedroom are a king-size double bed in a generous space with attractive views to the front of the property. The second bedroom is a cosy single. The bathroom is well appointed with a shower over the bath, washbasin and toilet. There is broadband WiFi at the cottage, login details can be found in the cottage folder. There is gas central heating. Linen/ towels are provided. Children over the age of 5 are welcome and 1x small dog can be considered for a small additional charge. Please do not smoke in the property.
Whilst we pride ourselves on our already high level of cleanliness and hygiene at No.4 Bardens Row, for your own peace of mind, we have reviewed our practices due to Covid-19 and have implemented the following additional procedures;
• Hand sanitiser is placed at both entry and exit points at the front and back doors. Please use this when returning to the cottage in addition to washing your hands.
• There is antibacterial liquid soap for hand washing and we would encourage you to do this whenever returning to the cottage.
• In addition to the thorough clean the cottage receives between guests, all ‘high touch’ areas such as light switches, door handles, handrails, plugs, keys, television remotes etc. are prioritised and receive additional disinfecting.
• Cleaners use full PPE when preparing the cottage for your stay.
• All soft furnishings are sprayed with Dettol Disinfectant Spray

Quiet

A well laid out wee cottage with everything you need. Quiet despite being in a terrace. No noise from outside at night. Felt safe. Easy access to lovely Tenterden and surrounding area. Good, off street parking.

Beautiful House

My partner and I stayed here for 2 nights whilst visiting a local winery. The house was absolutely gorgeous and looked exactly like the photos. There was even the added bonus of some mini cupcakes being left for us. There are a couple of local pubs super close by as well. Would definitely stay here again!

Really pretty cottage in a lovely location; close enough to everything whilst remaining nice and quiet. The cottage had everything I needed for a short stay with my dog. Lots of lovely walks nearby and plenty to see and do in the local area.

Cosy and comfortable

What better way to relax than with a book in a comfy armchair in front of a woodburner. Loved it. Great to be able to park in the driveway, off the road, right by the front door. Fab coffee and quality cooking ingredients from Silcocks farmshop & café barely a 10 minute walk up the road. No dishwasher but I knew that from the listing and the labour was no doubt good for my soul.

Cottage in Tenterden

We were delighted with the lovely cottage in St. Michael’s Tenterden. It was beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. During our stay, there were so many places of interest to explore within a short distance of the cottage.

Absolutely perfect

The minute we walked into the cottage we knew we’d be having a wonderful stay. It was immaculate, cosy with EVERYTHING you’d need plus more. Fairy lights were on over the log burner, little Christmas touches throughout, beautiful fresh smelling bedding/towels and goodies left out as well as some milk and bread. We were there for New Years, flowers and some fizz, how thoughtful. Super warm, comfortable and quiet in a pretty part of Kent, Tenderton just one mile away with a gorgeous high street and brilliant pubs. Friendly people, we will be back. Thanks so much to Helen our host who was really kind and helpful for anything we needed. Great enclosed garden for our dog to enjoy.

Quaint Cottage

Well equipped, off street parking very handy, had a slight problem working the boiler but this was rectified promptly by the owner. Lovely working log burner which made it cosy in the evenings. It was handy to have 3 local takeaways at the end of the street as there are no indoor eating restaurants in St Michael’s so had to drive into Tenterden. Overall it was a lovely cottage to stay for a few days.

Wow! cosy, relaxing, well equipped and so clean! Great location!

So cosy and relaxing. Pics don't do it justice! 2+dog stayed. Location is amazing; pub, chinese, chippy and pizza/kebab shop minutes walk away. Also, flat, 1.5 ml mostly paved ex-railway walk to tenterteden which had great shops/vibe/brewery/steam railway/museum/eateries. Cleanest holiday cottage I have ever stayed in (Kim&Aggie disciple)! And really well equipped. We do this twice a year and this cottage is one of our joys! Pssst don't tell anyone else...❤️
