Marvelous!
We had a wonderful stay at the property. It was spotlessly clean, beautifully appointed and suited our needs absolutely perfectly. Our hosts were helpful before and during our visit.

Extremely comfortable in a beautiful setting
Lavender Cottage is very well equipped, smartly decorated and a very comfortable place for a vacation. The owners have gone out of their way to make it welcoming, and the entire rental process was professional and completely uneventful. The location is gorgeous and encourages one to take advantage of the veranda for meals. We would have no hesitation in renting again if we had the opportunity to stay in the area again.

Lovely property
We stayed here as 3 couples. The property was spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The gardens were fabulous just a shame the weather wasn’t always on our side to enjoy them more. Definitely recommend this property. Thank you

Two spacious cottages in a large beautiful garden
We rented these cottages to meet up as a family for our daughters wedding. They were immaculate with plenty of crockery, cutlery etc. Loved that the cottages were interconnected from the back terraces. Hosts were very helpful and prompt answering all my questions. Just wish we could have stayed longer!

About the host

Hosted by Lieven & Lydia

Host profile image
Hello, we are Lieven & Lydia. We are very excited to have just taken over Woodlands Holiday cottages from Tony & Caroline, who have done a smashing job hosting guests since 2014!
We have recently moved to Yalding with our daughter to enjoy the beautiful space and countryside.
We love travelling and have been using HomeAway for many years. Having stayed in many cottages ourselves in the UK and abroad, we hope that this has given us a good idea of how to make our accommodation comfortable and inviting.

Why they chose this property

We like to offer a warm welcome and present the cottages and gardens in such a way you can relax immediately, enjoying the home comforts we all love, with a little sense of adventure as you explore the gardens, play a little tennis, possibly sit on the south facing balcony and enjoy a glass of wine and a BBQ overlooking the gardens. It's easy to discover the abundant delights of Kent, better known locally as The Garden of England.

What makes this property unique

Although the cottage is in a rural location it is only a short walk to the beautiful village of Yalding with all it's attractions.
As well as beautiful countryside on your doorstep there is also easy access to London, the coast, Royal Tunbridge Wells and Canterbury with it's amazing cathedral.
