A relaxing stay
We had a lovely break at Hop Cottage. The setting is so relaxing especially sitting in the hot tub looking out over the lake and watching the wildlife. The hosts were very friendly and helpful.

Absolutely lovely!
This beautiful cottage was ideal for us (three generations and dog) as it had everything we needed. Lots of space, lovely views, peace and quiet but also only a short drive to local towns, pubs and shops with Whitstable and other beaches just a little further. The cottage was really clean and tidy, the beds comfy and cosy and the garden was very safe for our dog as the owners had secured the fences and there was plenty of space for him to run around. A big plus for us was the jacuzzi with some wonderful views over a little lake with lots of birds and wildlife to watch while relaxing. The owners, Wendy and Nigel, were so helpful right from the moment we booked and answered all of our queries really quickly about the local area etc. Once we arrived we had a lovely welcome visit from Wendy who showed us around the place and made us feel really welcome. We are already planning our next visit to this hidden gem within the next few months for our next fix of relaxation. Thank you so much Nigel and Wendy, it was perfect! 😃

Very good overall, only one or two minor issues eg. electric shaver points not working, would have liked at least one change of towels and grass in garden needed cutting by the end of our stay.
