The Kennels review

Beautiful property presented in immaculate condition with all the mod cons for a very comfortable stay. The walled garden was a lovely place to hang out for some fresh country air, even on a chilly October day.

Birthday Treat

Booked this accommodationn last minute as a birthday treat for my 86 year old mum. She opened the gate to the garden and beamed. It has a gorgeous walled garden with very comfortable outdoor furniture and is a real suntrap in the afternoons so would recommend if you have a dog. The house was spotlessly clean, the beds very comfortable and lovely to be able to make up a fire to sit around and watch a film in the evenings. Parking is next to the property and very secure. Location was ideal for visits to Doddington gardens and Mount Ephraim gardens if they are of interest to you as they are only a few minutes away and nearby fish and chip shop delivers. You can hear the motorway when sitting outdoors but after a while it almost becomes white noise and you can't hear it inside the house. Highly recommend.

Great stay

The pictures don't do the property justice it's possibly one of the best we've stayed at. We stayed in January in a cold spell and property was comfortable even with one radiator not working in the lounge the log burner was nice bed comfortable and the shower powerful. The only negatives were motorway noise and no welcome pack of any description but would definitely stay there again

The Kennels House n.4

We had a very pleasant stay at The Kennels. House, location and customer service were just perfect. With the heat in July, a fan would have been nice in the rooms ;-)

Amazing place

Absolutely beautiful place. Huge garden. The pictures don't do it justice!!! 10/10. The only issue was location. Its quite remote. You a reach things by car easily, but a walk to the pub or a dog walk from the property isn't feasible. However I wouldn't hesitate to return as its such a wonderful stay.

Beautiful property

Lovely property. Well thought out hosting and nice touches (like milk, coffee, board games & Netflix). We were super comfortable, quiet and relaxing. Directions made it easy to find, although could have done with the directions being sent in all comms to avoid them being missed. If the garden furniture was moved to the top right hand side of the garden it would get the sun through to late in the evening. Coffee machine was a little tricky to figure out, and could have done with some instructions. Thanks so much for the stay

Beautiful retreat

We booked a week stay whilst having some home improvements and the Kennels was just what we were looking for! The beds were very comfortable, the garden was gorgeous and the roses smelt amazing. Good location from Faversham too, as it’s not too far. Neighbours are absolutely lovely! My only slightly negative feedback - the hot water is insanely hot, there are stickers to warn you, but I was super worried about my 4 year old scolding himself accidentally. The other was there were a lot of ants in the property! We kept the place free of food but it didn’t help. I’m also sure if I had mentioned both these things at the time of the stay Bloom/Julie would have rectified. Thanks so much again, a great home from home stay.

Nice place to stay with some remarks

Very good equipped house with lovely enclosed garden. Without the following points of critique definitely a five star rating. Two points of critique: 1) There should have been a sound barrier between the M2 and the house to my opinion. The bushes simply don't cut the blocking on their own. We knew in advance the proximity of the highway but we did expect more measures would have been taken to bring down noise levels. I know it is impossible to make the noise completely disappear, but bringing it down by a certain amount of decibels would make using the garden more enjoyable. 2) There are indeed surveillance cameras on the premises. What I do not appreciate is that the warning sign is not directly visible on entry (near front or back door?) but one must accidentally run into it as it is put up at the side of the house. There was to my knowledge no mentioning of them whilst booking our stay. Recommendation to the owner: Please invest in smart light bulbs (like IKEA ones) to be able to dim the ceiling lights. The warm dimmed lights near the coach and luxury sitting chairs are totally overcast by the enormous bright ceiling lights. Which is a real shame as with some proper lightning the living space could be a pleasant place to spend the evening.

Gorgeous comfortable stay

This house is a great location for seeing nice bits of Kent. It’s got a massive open plan living room /kitchen area with a lovely high ceiling and wood burning stove and a big garden all perfect if you have kids. The kitchen is nice and big too, lots of room if you’re cooking. It feels very luxurious and comfortable, a real treat to stay in.
