We had such a good holiday at The Duck House.
We had such a good holiday at The Duck House. Margaret and Roberto were excellent hosts. The eggs and Prosecco were delicious.
The cottage is lovely and very comfortable. The garden was beautiful, overlooking the field.
Our husky absolutely loved it. Enclosed garden and plenty of footpaths for excellent walks in the forest and fields. A 15-20 minute walk to the pub (food was very nice).
During our week we visited Ashford, Hastings, Rye and Margate. We were blessed with the most amazing weather. We will most certainly be back.

We finally found property .
We finally found property . We do not have Satnav . And sign posts almost non existent . Only one facing wrong way on road you need to take.
The owners were more than helpful, and the welcome basket was more than appreciated. Even catering for treats for the dog. If we could have ordered good weather there would have been no problems, but u fortunately that was out of our hands.
One thing would thoroughly recommend eating at THE PILOT at DUNGENESS. Well worth it.

We had a lovely stay at The Duck House, the accomodation was spotlessly clean and was one of the best lodges we have stayed in. The location was very peaceful with a wonderful sunny garden. The owners Roberto and Margaret gave us a warm friendly welcome and we were made to feel at home right away. We would recommend staying here to anybody. Roberto and Margaret- Our horse Malvern won!!!
