Lovely little place

In a very beautiful quiet place but still close enough to drive into town. The hot tub was a brand new one which was amazing. Hosts very attentive and welcome treats were lovely 😊

Nice private and pleasant stay

Lovely property. Loved the hot tub. Close to park and ride into Canterbury. Everything we needed apart from wifi, which was quite dire. We needed to confirm flights etc.

It was our first break away since becoming a couple just before lockdown and so glad we chose this property - it felt like our own little slice of paradise. Quaint, cute, perfect in every way. Oh and the bottle of wine and homemade cake on arrival went down a treat - thank you. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Though small, the cottage is a perfect escape for one or two guests. There is plenty of cooking equipment to eat in, but it's only about 20 minutes from Folkestone and Canterbury with other local villages nearby for other options. Good location for countryside and the coast. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Really lovely, deep in the Kentish countryside, but only 15 mins drive to Canterbury.

Really lovely, deep in the Kentish countryside, but only 15 mins drive to Canterbury. Very quiet. Excellent welcome, cake, wine, very friendly and helpful host. Lots of friendly dogs. Limited headspace in bedroom upstairs, ok for us, but could be difficult if over 6 ft tall.

We had a marvellous time, the Cottage is very rural and rustic, great if you have pets as well. The only downfall the local amenities, Canterbury is approximately 5 miles away, so don't forget to get your milk. Tim and Dee who run the cottage are amazing, really friendly and make sure you have all you need.

Great place for a weekend getaway! The property had character and was nice and cosy.

Great place for a weekend getaway! The property had character and was nice and cosy. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly. Only a short drive into the town centre if you want to explore a bit further. Me and my partner had a lovely time, it was quite the contrast to London and was the perfect place to recharge the batteries. The only slight let down was the beds, two single beds which were not the most comfortable so did have some trouble sleeping. Maybe a sofa bed would be ideal?
