Well equipped cottage, very comfortable and quiet.
Well equipped cottage, very comfortable and quiet. Location is perfect to explore Kent. Recommend Folkestone, Ashford, Deal and Canterbury. Folkestone is fantastic with the creative quarter and Harbour Arm. We and our dog loved the cottage, enclosed garden and surrounding walks and the friendly horses and donkey. The hot tub was a luxury after a day out and having a late night dip with no lights on looking at the stars was a real treat.

A little piece of heaven.
A little piece of heaven.An absolutely beautiful place.Totally refreshed & relaxed, despite having a dislocated shoulder. Was just what I needed & it exceeded expectations. Thankyou Sue & Mark
My wife and I brought along our dog and had a fantastic, relaxing midweek break. Everything has been thought of to ensure the perfect stay. The kitchen was very well equipped and the rooms decorated to a high standard. We especially liked the hot tub and underfloor heating. Mark was very poilite and proffessional and after giving short and informative guidance on how to use and maintain the hot tub we were left to our holiday. We will definitely be staying again.
